I used to work with this guy at UC Berkeley getting people (read: idots) to do multi level marketing. I've since gotten real, quit selling pipe dreams folks for their money and hit the books and landed a great internship yadda yadda yadda. He on the other hand moved to sacramento and continued to scam individuals there...

I wonder how many poor kids he scammed to earn the money for that nice car.

Damn it's a nice car though

his profile on the MLM site:

In May of 2002, Sean XXXXXX was your typical UC Berkeley student. Broke, tired, and studying hard to one day earn a job making someone else rich, Sean dreamed of more. One day, he met Dustin XXXX on campus, and was told about the XXXXX Opportunity. "Here was this dude Dustin, driving a Mercedes Benz, making crazy money, and he never went to one day of college. Some of my friends with degrees were making 5 times less than Dustin! So I was, well, interested!", says Sean. In just over a year, Sean has achieved amazing success. He bought a 2001 Porsche 911 Carrera 4, promoted to Executive Director, and cracked the Top 150 Money Earners. He insists on perseverance and a never quit attitude. "It's amazing how dumb some people are", says Sean. "I've been told not to do this by my family, that this was a dumb idea by my friends, and other people said you have to get in early to make any money. Dustin XXXX said something to me when I told him what some of my friends said," says Sean, cracking up... "he asked me if any of those people were making a six figure income owning their own business... I said 'no', and I'll never forget what he said: "Why would you listen to broke people about making money... they might mean well, but they have no idea what they are talking about. That stuck with me."

your thoughts???

Your friend is a jerk. The fact that he made enough money to buy a car with ass-looking headlights (albeit, a nice car otherwise) is irrelevant - there are drug dealers with that much money, too.

I think he's a fvcking piece of sh!t and hope he crashes his "little dick" car for scamming people...

... but then again, if people are stupid and gullible enough to buy into his B.S., then that's their problem.

Basically pyramid scheme type of stuff, or even simpler capitalizing on people paying ~$300+ to "start up a business" that had little chance of any return..

Just because he's kneeling in front of a car doesn't mean he owns it. For all I know he could be kneeling right next to someone else's car.

I don't really care much for stupid people ... nothing can be dome for them.

It's the gullible students that I feel for, its sad to see people like him ripping off others his age and even younger.
