This has been very helpful to me, being new to the online internet business and to this site. I only wish I had come across it sooner; (about 2 weeks ago.)
I have been wanting to be able to work from home, since I live with my 85 year old mother and have just recently graduated from college. I came across an internet ad on "Work from Home" I filled out a form and am not sure but may have spent approx. $48.95 including postage & handling on the decision package. I listened to the DVD & CD, read the information, sounded good to me, and called the name given on the package, my Personal Coach. We have been in contact with one another since 3/24/05. After our first phone call I was asked if I was interested and than told I needed to spend another $399.00 for the IBP. I was not to go through the box until I had talked to my Personal Coach and another upline team member. A couple of days later they called and proceded to go through the material with me- Herbalife Products, vitamin & nutrient supplements plus the Online Business Operations Manuel. I was given another assignment and they called back about 2-3 days later. Eventually I purchased the "Supervisor" volumn points of 4000 to become a qualified supervisor, I have yet to sell anything. This cost $3700 since now being a supervisor I would get a 50% discount. Along with this was included a $125.00 website for me to advertise on( 25.99 per month) Which I see is pretty much the same website for all. I have had few hits on it, but am told that if I buy into "The Wheel" for at least $1000.00 I may get some leads, not guaranted. Now orginally I thought spending $48.95 is not too bad,but now it is up to $4147.95 total spending on my credit card for this "Work from Home" businesss and I haven't even really got started. I am getting suspicous. I read the story posted here on the Ottawa, Canada incicident on a Better Business Bureau site from Utah. I was horrified, when I contacted the upline team member about it she excused it by writing me, "Don't believe everything you read over the Internet!" She's been in the business longer than I have and has seemed to make much money with it, she told me $47,000 in one week! So I don't want to argue with her. But I really can't afford to put anymore money into it and now I have 4 boxes of products that I am afraid I am stuck with. From what I have read others have lost more, but still I have student loans to pay back besides now the extra expenses I charged on my credit card. Is there any action I can take or should I just chalk it up to a "learning experience" in life? The upline team member also informed me that the www.herbalcoach.com website is not one she would recommend."I'd rather you stay away from Herbalcoach. Look at our retail websites. attached is info about them."

Also just heard from my Personal Coach who wrote the same thing since she had also written the same upline team member and recieved the same answer. "This is for Distributors who have no other online options to work
from. The Online System, as we have discussed, is an "arm" where we have
these websites, etc. already set up. This Herbalcoach is not nearly as
developed (in terms of reporting, tracking, etc.), compared to the system we
have. The Online System group was the highest growth "arm" of Herbalife
last year! That's us!!!"

It seemed all right to me since it is very inexpensive.
Sorry this is so long, as you can tell I am new and also rather upset and confused over this.
Thank You!
