Yeah my brother-in-law was a bit like that. Is fortunately grown a brain since they got a kid.

I have no idea why he believed that he would be able to get free money somehow. That’s the one thing life teaches you is there is no such thing as a free lunch and if somebody is trying to tell you there is then they’re trying to scam you. Or they’re just stupid.

It’s exactly the same with pyramid schemes, the people who can afford to be in pyramid schemes are generally savvy enough to not get involved in them. It’s only the people who find life to be eternally difficult that seem to be convinced by them.
