[blparent] discovery toys

I think its like selling Avon or that stuff from the cooking cumpeny.  I 
found years ago when I did Avon that I brought in less then $500 a munth 
after my expensis and worked hard so feel I should of made more.  If its 
like Avon, you sell stuff, you get your friends to sell stuff and you get a 
percentage of what they sell with what you sell, and if you get a lot of 
people selling you csan make a lot of money.  These things work for some as 
a full time job but the amount of work one has to do to get there is quite a 
bit.  This one could be different but after the Avon situation I had I don't 
jump at these.

Would like to know how one makes a proffit at this as well.

I'm curious and please don't take this in the wrong way. can you make real 
money out of this? so I invest $500 in to this this company and its toys. if 
I had some one take this on full time for me, subtracting what ever I pay 
them to do it, what can my return be after 12 months? I mean does it have 
the potential to be comparable to a full time job income? let's say even at 
minimum wage, 800 a month? or at a wage of 12.00 an hour which comes out to 
about $1920.00 per month. are these realistic expectations?
Would you be willing to reveal ball park what has the highest amount paid to 
you in a month off this job and how many hours you put in to it daily? I am 
absolutely serious about these questions and I look forward to your 
response.
