When she and her husband were getting started I made it clear that we have no interest and hate MLMs. She has never tried to sell my wife but everytime we hang out they always mention how their business is doing and that they are making money.
I know their buy in was around $5k and they've spent at least hundreds per month since then and there is absolutely no way they have made a profit. I'd love to know the actual numbers but they would never tell us. We are just waiting until they finally give up one day and then have some excuse like they didn't have enough time for it or something. It's amazing how MLM deceive even semi-intelligent people.
