If they're making money hand over fist, and they plan to spend that money on the poor and destitute of the world, why would I have a problem with that? They're typically not signing these people up as distributors, and it's really a PR play for sure, but also it's about providing some sort of humanitarian and emotional experience for their distributors to obviously keep them coming back or keeping them in the business.
I think the question is what if they didn't go and do that? I have a friend who is doing the humanitarian efforts for Young Living and goes to Nepal and shows what they're doing and I think it's great. Our former stake president heads up the humanitarian efforts for Younique and works with Tim Ballard's Underground Railroad to stop sex trafficking, etc. I for one think I'd rather see them put their money into these efforts.
