Customer Reviews

All That Glitters Is Not God

I bought Athena Dean's book in the year 2000. Her book had given me strong insights into the sweet deceipts and workings of the multi-level industries. Just like sins, we understand her warnings of the dangers of MLM but we kept falling back into it. It serves as a very good reminder for me not to fall into any of the hundreds of MLM traps that are penetrating into evry part of our lives right now. I lived in Singapore where there are about 200,000 full and part time MLM networkers with over 500 plus MLM companies competing with each other! 99% of all the few hundreds of MLM networkers that I know of are now broke. I do hope someone like Athena Dean can come out with another book to look deeper into the present seductive and addictive dangers of MLM and many money games that are ruining many people financially and spiritually.

Eye-Opening Book

My friend has been in MLM for 20 years and still is as poor as he's ever been. He's traveling every week to show "the business" to someone, trying to get them to sign up so they will be as poor as he is. If you want to know what drives such insanity, read "All That Glitters is Not God."

This book exposes the futility in chasing after MLM success

Very well written book on how the MLM business sucks us into a wearisome pursuit of wealth by showing us how we are "discontent" with our current situation and alluring us into wanting more and more--and sometimes at the expense of those we love. I've been involved with an MLM for seven years and for the last three have basically just purchased products, but have been wondering if I "missed the boat" somehow by not pursuing MLM vigilantly to obtain my "financial freedom". What I've discovered over the last three years is PEACE from all the running here and there and my ministry to others has increased tremendously since I'm not so consumed with my own "success". This book confirmed to me that I've made the right decision to cease MLM activities and is an excellent guide for anyone caught in the MLM web of deceit.
