Isoman, thanks for contributing your "fair share". <g> I'm intrigued by one point of yours:

&#147&#133they have to prove&#133that the enphasis is on selling the product not on selling distributerships.&#148

Fairshare doesn't appear to be a fund; not investors pooling money, either. From Microcap World, who was pushing them earlier: #reply-6119472

&#147It is the mission of Fairshare to find these types of companies, review them for the benefit of the Fairshare membership and, if warranted, present them to the Fairshare Membership&#133Fairshare income is derived from Membership Fees.&#148

And from Fairshare's site: fairshare.ebgi.com

"5. LEARN you have the potential to achieve this wealth with small monthly deposits of your own money by simply telling others your secret and when they start their Wealth Building program a portion of their fees can be deposited into your personal account."

"6. LEARN about how your membership allows you to participate in our extraordinary venture capital investment process, equips you with working tools, shows you how to screen and evaluate potential investments in young companies and then offers a way for you to buy the stock (just like a venture capitalist) directly from the issuing company without going through a broker."

Sounds like ya pays your money, recruit new people, and Fairshare somehow 'brings to your attention' a list of fledglings; perhaps via newsletter.

Is it still a grey area between MLM/Ponzi or is this one starting to lean to one side?
