1) Is HLF a pyramid scheme? You mean like the SS system and treasury dept. floating new debt? <G>

Some say the same thing about AVP which I own. It's been around a long time. I don't think the consumer is being defrauded. They are getting a product they can choose to re-order if they like it. I however can certainly see certain newcomer sales associates being taken advantage of by existing sales associates.. JMO

2) Who do you want to see win Icahn or Ackman?

I just don't want to see shareholders get hurt in the melee. I'd rather see the company stand on it's earnings merit going forward.

P.S. No, I never fell for that scam in school. Send the dollar with five names. Many kids have been subject to ones similar?
