Any jobs similar to being a utility warehouse distributer?

I almost got hooked on the idea of being a utility warehouse distributer, but after researching there are quite a lot of drawbacks to it..

Just wodnering if there was something similar that would be good for an 18 year old to be a salesman for?

    I'd try growing up first instead of banging out random suggestions in the manner of a child.

    Kleeneze or Betterware.
    Although it's hard to make any money doing any of them.

    Forever Living - selling aloe products, lots of men do it. Firstly, you need a sponsor who already sells Forever Living and then you buy a box of stuff for £199 and in that you get a pack of paperwork and stuff that you can try and stuff you sell, the idea is to build up a team, earn commission on your sales and those of your team. Forever have training days, success days (tend to be weekend events) and conferences around the world.

    I don't work for Forever - it is something that I have looked at but not followed up as yet.
