    Lately I have been watching that cult experts videos and one thing that caught me was when he talked about mlm’s being cults which I experienced with my sister being into an mlm. It sorta blows my mind how expansive this type of thing is without us even realizing it. One thing I wonder about is Im signed up for this thing that is basically supposed to be about getting focus groups. Twice now I have seen ones advertised looking for no particular thing just wants opinions and is 8 or 9 fucking hours long with a decent enough payoff but WTF! I have not responded to them because immediately I felt its at best a time share pitch or something and at worst a cult. Well you signed a paper that said you would be here for nine hours.
