My old neighbor was the queen of "parties." If you could sell it in your home and sucker all your unsuspecting neighbors to come in for the sales pitch, you were in Cindy's home. Amway, Mary Kay, Pampered Chef, Tastefully Simple, DK Books, Partylite Candles, Southern Living at Home on and on and on. It was the joke of the neighborhood. I went a few times to just see what on God's green earth she could be hawking now, but I never bought a thing. I think it drove her nuts.
All of these "great ways to make money" have the same poorly memorized sales pitches about how the seller could now stay and home and make her own money on her own time.
Once when we moved into our house Cindy called me and tried to convince me that working for her as a seller of Amway I think, would be a great idea. Unlike Cindy, I actually had a good paying job that did not involve soap mongering. She was hard core on this stuff. I heard later she'd tried to recruit another new neighbor who barely spoke English.
