The idea is that joining will give you the chance to save money on things you would have bought anyway.... like magazines and software and language learning programs. You sign up and pay monthly. YOu have to sell a lot of magazines to recoup your $25 monthly fee so you slowly realize that you are losing money. That is why they pay you more to recruit new members than to sell products. You will end up asking your friends and family to join so you can stop losing money. It all turns out to be a huge waste of your time and effort.

Oh my gosh. This is a hilarious question... WHAT ISN'T A PYRAMID SCHEME?? You're right, what isn't a pyramid scheme these days? Does $100 a month seems like it would actually pay off with the amount of discounts you receive? I am on the fence about spending $50 a year on a BJ's membership! Man, if you've got $1200 a year to blow, go for it girl.

Don't fall for this crap.

And that's no friend. You make money by signing up people that are easy to scam.

No real person would ever buy this product unless they were the dumbest person on earth.

Google: Wake up now Scam

The internet is full of the truth of this rip-off.

This is just one of the millions of bad reviews.

Why would you know it's a pyramid scheme and still be interested? Do you like to steal and cheat people? Because that is what a pyramid scheme is!

Started talking to this guy that's a sort of team leader for Wake Up Now. he told me all about it, even though I had to ask the same Q's 3 times. I got tired of him running I n circles. From what I gathered from what he sai and the videos I've watched. they make money from signing people onto the company. the also save money from going to places we normally go to and buying product we always buy.

I'm on the fence and looking for your opinion.

Now im not an idiot, I take ever cautious step and do research before jumping in to anything. I looked at both angles of this, and yes there is a risk, but isn't there always? And yes I noticed it's a pyramid scheme but what isn't?

the 2biggest problems I have with this is paying $100 a month to get access to deals and save money, and the fact in order to make a monthly check id have to suggest ppl.never been good at sales.

i'm leaning both ways, it sounds like it could work, but the phrase to good to be true keeps popping into my head. why do I feel I just answered my Q?
