Cool

I've read some of the negative feedback on this site, so I'm here to offer some hope about 2by2.net. I just joined after weeks of analysis and research. I figured that it's a no-lose situation. I shell out 420 bucks and if I make some money, I'm satisfied. If I lose that money then I learn a valuable lesson. I know some friends that are making pretty good money through 2by2.net. I've seen their checks!

Be open to it. This is not a get rich quick scheme. It's going to require some work, but before you give up on this opportunity, do your research. Check it out and then make an informed decision.

There's such a negative stigma surrounding MLMs, but if you look hard, you'll find ones that are legit and that work.

Yeah, I understand that $420 is a lot of money for most people... I was one of the biggest skeptics of this thing. I was telling my friend who signed me up "Go away. I don't want to join your cult." and "I'm so offended that you're even asking me to do this" but in the end, you never know unless you try. The people who are the biggest skeptics are the ones who turn out to be the most adamant and effective because they don't just readily throw their time and money around. They do research and analyze the risk and calculate the costs. I've never done MLM before, so maybe it won't turn out the way that I want, but I'd rather try and know for sure than watch those around me make some good money and regret the fact that I missed this crazy opportunity.

If I offered you a Ferrari 360 Modena for $420, would you be able to get $420?

I'm pretty sure you could.

If you have a computer and internet access and are educated enough to even know how to access this forum, you can find a way to get $420.

I respect your opinion.

Have you checked out the website and company yet?

I'd like to get people's feedback on why they think this is such a bad idea and what type of experiences (good or bad) people have had with MLMs.

Thanks.

2by2.net is positioned to capitalize on the trends of growth in Internet commerce WORLDWIDE! There are no borders on the World Wide Web, which means we can do business from all around the world. How would you like to participate and capitalize on the biggest shifting of wealth in the history of mankind? This will only happen once in your lifetime. You CAN be involved! Be a part of it, or be left out of it.


Yes, once in my lifetime. I also expect to either die or be incapacitated in 6 years or so.

Sorry, I know this thread has been inactive for some time now but I have been away for a while and couldn't help adding my own humble opinion.

For anybody who is now toying with the notion of trying 2by2 out...don't. I can't think of a better way to put it.

If you have the "desire" for money -- the desire that 2by2 capitalizes on, go play $420 at a blackjack table. You'll find your chances of getting any of that money back are many times greater than if you hand it over to 2by2.net.

If you *really* want to deceive your friends and get their money from them, you may as well just take it from their wallets while they're not paying attention. At least that way you'll get to keep all of it and it'll be a lot less work for the both of you.

Believe me, I was excited about this new "business opportunity" when I got into it as those mental giants you see driving around with the decals on their cars, but I quickly realized that the way that company actually works is designed only to benefit the company - not the representatives. Sadly, there are a lot of people who still argue the opposite in a constant effort to recruit new members. At the risk of sounding extremely negative, they are all either being naive, or lying.

If anybody has any questions about 2by2, please feel free to ask. I would have much rather learned the things I know now before I had put my money into 2by2.net.

Post Basically....

$420 is way too much money to shell out for something thats not guaranteed! I doubt any member from gotapex will be interested in a program like this because it's NO WAY CLOSE TO ANY "DEAL"! It seems by your long replies that you are anxious about getting people to sign up under you, which makes it seem leary to others.

If this program really works so well, you should shell out $420 for someone to sign up...that way you have someone to back up your claim, and give testimony!

I'm sorry lightyear, I don't want to start an argument -- but I keep thinking that maybe I'll save somebody the money that I gave up if I can make things clear for them ahead of time.

I have heard things like this over and over and over again at 2by2 meetings. I may have even heard that exact quote verbatim. It is truly amazing to me that people can recite the same scripts over and over again pretending its some spur of the moment insight and keep a straight face.


And as far as this goes...

Not only is that the first thing they teach you that at "2by2 training camp" but it has been beaten into the heads of every 2by2 rep to the point that I usually hear it at least three or four times per conversation when I talk to those guys now.

2by2 is just plain garbage. That pretty much sums it up.

Shrug. If you think it's getting repetitive, don't read it.

shrug. for what it's worth, I have a cousin who's making thousands off of 2by2 (he brought me along when he went to the BMW dealer to get a 2001 328i). He tried to get me into it but 1) I don't have $420 2) it doesn't look right and 3) even if it worked, i don't think i'd feel right about the money...

so I guess I could say I've seen it work. If I had an extra $420 to gamble, I'd probably stick it in 2by2 rather than Bellagio in Las Vegas or something...but I don't

2by2.net = Pyramid Scheme

For the people who dunno, it's their "legal" version of an pyramid scheme. Plain and Simple!

The stickers on your cars.....SUCK ASS!! That's a nasty looking logo and it's even funnier see it on a brand new BMW then on a 1989 nissan sentra parked next to it.
