Ok you want the price on the ping? What is your price for ping and where did you get it from? That price is not in front me, although I can get it. This misses the whole point about PRICE vs. SERVICE.. refer to www3.techstocks.com for a review.

For being smart investors, you should look at the viability of all the products prices vs. other retail competitors. This is only one of the criteria as I have said. SERVICE potential should too be considered. In other words there may be times when we get beaten by someone prices. There will still be buyers at the higher price if there is value, in service, present. We only need to be competitive to be viable as a company. AND WE ARE VERY COMPETITIVE. Granted many will say, and I would be one, that we beat a great deal on any of the products that we have, but this is not the only criteria. Again I state this: It is a myth to think that people always buy the cheapest price. It is something we look for, if nothing else is present in a transaction. So you want me to give the price on the ping? Then tell me how much you can get for it?

To Silent: I think you are right about one thing and one thing only. It is pointless to argue with you, although fun it is. You and I disagree and view things so differently that it can not be reconciled. But Dickhead, I am not. This company like the ones mentioned and many others in this industry are very successful. Look it up. (A point that you are wrong on) An a critical issue for investors. From an investment standpoint that is what you are concerned with. Did you know that from an investment point of view that Network marketing companies out performed the Dow Jones industrial average in one of the best bull markets ever by more than 79%. Did you know that? Look it up. ('96) ALSO investors, need to understand that this industry is here to stay. You may not understand it and may hate that, but it is here to stay. IHIN is also the world's 18 largest Network Marketing Company. You cannot separate IHIN stock price and company's performance. They are linked together. That is why I guess many have talked about a wide range of issues because there are no givens here. Many don't understand the Industry, many hate the industry, but it is here to stay and it is growing rapidly.

As far as individual success as reps, I submit to you that it is not easy. NO ONE HAS EVER SAID THAT!!! SHOW ME A POST THAT HAS THAT. FIND ME A PERSON THAT HAS MADE HIS OR HER SUCCESS AND SAID it was EASY. THERE ARE NONE. It is a simple business, but like any real success, takes effort and hard work. There are no free ride. I Think that is the rub, people see an opportunity as quick money and easy money. ITS NOT. BUT you know what, it does work today, for those that don't quit. FACT. So while you tell me all the sorry ass stories, tell me how THEY have fixed there lives. They came in for a reason, how did they find another opportunity and fixed there life? Did they get a second job? Did they buy a business? How did they do it? Let me know if there is a free ride somewhere, I'd love to see it. Your friends left because they lost sight as to why they got in the business in the first place. Furthermore, there is no city that is so saturated as to not have an opportunity. I have seen the demographics and there is very little concentration of reps in any city. We also have growing market share, but it is so insignificant that it is not worth talking about.(But market share is growing rapidly as well) Yes in some smaller cities people have changed how they worked the business, and have gotten trained on how to work the business the right way, but there people today have come and have enjoyed success. I know buddy, because I see it. Your friends quit while others made it happen. BTW: What city are you referring to?

Do you have a net worth in excess of 7 figures? I use the pile rule when I listen to free advice such as yours. It goes like this. If your pile is bigger than mine, I'll listen to what you have to say. If not, I won't. Also Did you help all those people that jumped off IHI, get to where they wanted to go? (The one or two people, not lots buddy. If you have 10 or more friends, I would be shocked.)

You said there are other companies with Opportunities. Where and what are the names? I'm not stupid either. If you know of a place where one can have the opportunity to reach a strong 6 figure income or even 7 figure annualized income and you don't have to put the house equity on the line, then lets here it. We can start a new thread. (also, the fact that you have not ran across a high income earner in MLM shows me you nothing. I don't know of one successful person that would want to hang around some damn negative idiot and an ignorant one to boot.

You know what I hate about negative people, they focus in on the failures and then they use that as evidence that everything is bad about an issue. They look at a subject in the worse possible light and then say... see I told you so. These guys are problem finders not problem solvers. Success demands failures. There will be failure along the way, but a winner adjusts course and prevails. (This is universal)

BOTTOM LINE: People want a way to better there lives. They want the lifestyle to enjoy life. They want time freedom and resource freedom. So people are looking for something. What do you "silent" or anyone else have for them, that has a significant chance for success? How much will it cost? Why don't you solve the problem and stop tearing down, industries, companies, and people that are doing it.

P.S. I'll try to get that ping price... you get your cash ready DAN. <G>
