Post Short of cash?

I hope this is not too far off the matter on a flying bulletin board. But myself, being a First Officer with one of the big UK Charter Airlines has found a nice little business to do whenever I am not down to Palma.
It will pay me my pension a lot better than my company will, and a lot sooner as well.
As you all have the same very expensive dream that I already fullfilled for myself (flying one of the big ones) and are interested in finding a way to finance it why not send me an email with your adress and phone number and I will get in touch with you and show a way to get what you really want.

PS: I can achieve whatever I want if I help others to achieve what they want.

Many happy landings and talk to you soon!

I can see this is your first post on PPrune, this is a very open forum, we don't mind helping each other, feel free to explain to all how this can help. after all you say this will help everyone so why not give it as wide an audiance as possible, and dispell any 'misconceptions' this is not a pyrimid scheme (which as already stated is illegal) or a "multi-level-marketing" scam. you little "I can achieve whatever I want if I help others to achieve what they want." would sound alarm bells

Thanks for the warnings guys.
To answer a few of the comments sorry if it sounds like junk advertising I promise it will be the only link in PPrune that I start on this subject and as soon as you stop replying it will stop.
No it is not Pyramid selling, that is illegal and I know that.
The company is in trade since 13 years, started in the US and operates in 78 countries with a turnover of 1.3 billion $ last year, I don't think any illegal company manages that openly (not even the mafia).
But I am not going to drag on forever, if you are interested, look up my email under the Who button and we discuss it. For those who did not like it that I use this forum to share my enthusiasm I am sorry, won't happen again.

Question

OK - excuse us for being cynical, but nothing in this world comes easy - especially money. If, as you claim, your plan is legal and will help people who are desperate for financial assistance to achieve their dreams, WHY do you not just tell us in this forum, in public ?

WHY do you need everyone's name, email and home address ??

If you cannot come up with a believable reason, how can you expect anything other than suspicion ?

If you're for real, tell the forum, publicly - otherwise, stop playing with peoples hopes.

As requested I reply to try and answer some questions. I am sorry, but I am not a computer engineer like you, anengineer, so for me the easiest way to talk to a lot of people was to use a forum like this to steer up some interest. I have steered up a lot alright but obviously upset more people than interested them. Except my apologies, but for me asking for adresses and email adresses seemed to be the easiest way of telling people who are interested directly what I am on about.

What company is it? Called Forever Living Produkts.
What do they deal with? Everything around the healing plant Aloe Vera.
Do I have to pay up front to join? No.
Do I have to make minimum orders in certain times? No, you can order as often or as seldom as you like but any order must be above £5o.
Who gets the profits? Interesting one. Difference between wholesale and retail is a good 30%, on top you get a monthly cheque from the company with a percentage of the turnover that you and everyone that you have sponsored into the company has created.
In total around 65% of the retail price is given back to the distributors, various percentages at various levels.
Will I be rich tomorrow? No. My cheques for month 1 was £30 and month 2 £50. But, by finding someone else who would like to give it a go they will be rising continually for some time. The chap that introduced us has been with the company for 4 years, given up his daytime job and makes in excess of £5000 per month.
Do I have to run from door to door and try to get rid of the stuff? No. You use it yourself, tell family and friends about it, find someone else who is interested and so on.
Is that not pyramid selling? No. Everyone buys produkts from the company directly at the same prices and either uses them himself or sells them to customers i.e. friends or family.
What do you get when I join? Whoever wants to join needs to do this via someone who is working for the company. It could be me or anyone else. Tipe Aloe Vera in any search engine and you find lots of people who do this. For you it does not matter with whom you start, for me it is a matter of trying to find someone who likes to be in my team. As I mentioned above it is the team turnover that makes the monthly cheque grow.
Are the produkts any good? Yes. They come with 90 day money back guarantee, they do help with any sort of skin and digestion problems ,boost immune system, regulate blood pressure and sugar levels, aid in sleeping better to name but a few.

This has been a long statement completely unrelated to a flying bulletin board I probably get kicked out of PPrune for doing so, but a lot of people wanted me to say openly what I had to say so I did.
In the days where almost all the companies erode their pension schemes it seems to be a good idea in my mind to try and find alternative ways that do not involve too much work to make sure one is covered.
For all thos who dislike me posting this altogether my last apologies, from now on I will only talk to people who are interested to find out more by their relative emails.

Nu Skin? - That one's been doing the rounds in the airlines a while now - along with Telco and NSA.

You can make money from all of these schemes as long as you don't mind mixing business with pleasure.

Don't advertise for your pyramid selling skin products on the PPrune forums; even if you claim to be a first officer! Here's a rumour for you - this sounds like a ***** deal!

I've been watching Neighbours, and know the dangers of 'Beauty Tree'...!

Cripes!!

These Aloe Vera pluggers get everywhere don't they? Just the other day I came back to my car, after finishing work, and there was a leaflet under the wiper!

From the information I have gained (yes I showed some interest and did abit of digging): You can potentially earn some reasonable cash from this kind of work but you risk alienating your friends and any possible friends you may meet in the future. In short - you become a sad, lonely, money driven monster...........if you work real hard!

I reckon this thread has come near to outright free advertising and I suspect the moderators will be closing it quite soon.

VFE.

Amway with a fancy product,

The person at the top gets all the money and the people at the bottom lose out when it crashes.
