PYRAMID SCHEME

As its name indicates, the pyramid scheme is structured like a pyramid

In order for everyone in a pyramid scheme to profit, there would have to be a never-ending supply of new participants. So they must advertise broadly.

CONCLUSION

The pyramid scheme cannot go on forever. Because there are not enough people on earth to fulfill a successful ending.

There are only two effects, either you gain or loss. Not everyone will receive the money in return. The only way is to promise extraordinary returns to new recruits.

The no. of supply of participants is limited and each new level of participants has less chance of recruiting others and a greater chance of losing money.

Invariably these schemes lose steam and the pyramid collapses.

recommendations

As with any other investment plan you consider entering, it is important to ask the right questions.

Always remember that if a plan promises you'll get rich quick with no risk, or doesn't tell you how your money will be invested, you should exercise caution before getting on board.

Work hard, not invest much in pyramid schemes because it is only circulating money among participants not to create wealth.
