Midtown posted:A good friend of mine lost his job a while back and has been trying to use his newly acquired free time to his advantage. So he invites me over for a discussion about a business opportunity he is starting and that I "can't miss out" and "Donald Trump". So I arrive and am greeted by a 45-minute presentation for some generic pyramid-scheme knock-off thing for "making huge profit selling telecommunications and earning RESIDUAL INCOME $125,000 PER YEAR FEAT. DONALD TRUMP'S ENDORSEMENT". With no job or job prospects lined up he dropped $499.99 on the starter set and has been begging me, his other friends, family, and anyone who still hasn't filed a restraining order to sign up too. My brother got involved with these people in the 90's. The pitch was something along the lines of - Governments are going to start deregulating the telecom industry - This is an opportunity that will ONLY HAPPEN ONCE - We will help people SAVE MONEY - We have no product for sale - We need more salespeople!
