Well i know it works because my buddy is killing it and pretty much living off of it.
Him and I both signed up for it back in 01-02....he stayed with it.....i dropped out after like 3-4 months into.
And yes just like Sinope mentioned...it's bunch of stupid meeting/conference/calling people etc...
So i guess it depends on how much work you wanna put into it.
I did it and it wasn't for me. i hated going here and there and trying come up with name to call and stuff like that....But now he is living it.....and yes those fancy trips to the island and cities are true.

So the question i guess you have ask yourself is.....Do I want to really work for it?
