15 Mind-Blowing YouTube Documentaries All About “Multi-level Marketing Companies” That Prove They Are All Pyramid Schemes

Let's be honest here, we have all gotten that DM in our Instagram account. We have a surge of excitement that maybe someone likes our content or has a question. Then, we open it up to see the classic message, "Hey girl! I am in love with your profile and the photos you post…" Which sounds nice at first. Then you keep reading: "I think you'd be amazing at what I do! You could make great money! I work for an amazing _____ company and you would be perfect! Can I send you some information on this opportunity or our products?"

After going down a deep rabbit hole of videos about these companies that allow you to "work from home," I have found some crazy stories and good information on them all. Be sure to binge all the videos and learn about these pyramid schemes.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
