  • Its a pyramid scam, please dont waste your time, comission only etc they dont have to pay you minimum wage as you basically sign your rights away/ register self employed and pay for goods up front that can be had much cheaper in tesco.

    I make a fair bit from www.free-easy-money.com working from home. There is at the least couple of grand to me made and if you treat it like a job then it equates to a very good hourly rate
    I owe many thanks to free-easy-money.com !:beer:

    Hello,

    I had a look at thier site. It looks good, I'm always on the net. It doesn't say anything about how much they pay. Is it good pay?

    Thank you

    Let me set the record straight. I did Betterware for a while when unemployed. It is NOT a Pyramid scam and you DON'T have to shell out money to get started. You will get your own round, no-one else will butt in on the same one, unlike Kleeneze, where you can deliver where you like.

    Yes it is commision based depending on your sales and it's only pocket money. But I enjoyed it and met some really nice people.

    What are your skills? What did you do before your son was born? Can you teach anything? Can you cook? Can you sew?

    I was a nightclub Manager!!!!!!! So you can see why I can't go back to this. It was very long hours and late hours too. Working in the morning, afternoon and evening.
    With my husband doing shift work it just wouldn't work. Plus I would never see my son or husband and I don't want that.
    With in this job I did everything ... accounts, payroll, everything it takes to run a business really.

    So.. I need something that fits in with my family. I obviously picked the wrong career. I should of picked one that I could have gone back to.

    What about something like Kleeneze? I know of lots of people who have children and do a Kleeneze round, i've been doing it for a few months and it works really well for me and there is the option to do party-plan with the Cabouchon jewellery too.
