It advertises itself as "The Wellness Company". It distributes skin care and household cleaning products that are supposedly safer, better working, and cheaper than other products. Wife has become a distributor. Other reps claim to make $12K/mo. It sounds like a pyramid scheme to me, where you make money by recruiting other reps. To even look at its website you have to join. Web reviews are mixed. Anyone have any personal or anecdotal experience with them?

It's a shit, weed of a tree in Florida that we're constantly trying to eradicate. Has bark like paper. :leaving:

Skin care and household cleaning products.

Sounds like two perfectly logical product lines to merge.

If the wife has already started with this program, you'll just have to ride it out by being supportive.


Whatever the hell that means. I read it somewhere once.

:iagree:
A buddy used to work for them in the late 90s and; yeah....it's a pyramid scheme much like Amway.
That being said, there are some folks that make a killing selling Kirbys.

Company has been around too long for a large income by new associates.

The wife did that back in the mid 90's. Again, I just kept my mouth shut and let her do her own thing. Did she ever make any money? Maybe enough to get a burger at McD's. Did she piss off friends? Yep. Is the stuff any good? Eh.

Just one of the 312 reasons I'm glad I'm not married to her anymore.

They have a great hot sauce and rosemary/pepper/salt combination.

Of course, it is a great product and you too can make $12k/month. Btw, I also have some awesome Ginsu knives I can sell ya.

That page of advice is not in my book.

The problem is that when wife gives a Melaleuca "party", lots of peeps show up and buy the shit. Now if it were a passion party, I'd understand, but dishwasher detergent? :confused5:

They show up for the booze and food that you pay for. Factor that into the profit margin. :rofl:
