You're mixing up ROI and ROE and it's the ROE that counts (David Greene has explained that well in several podcast episodes)!.

Quote from @David Pere: Quote from @Sean Hudgins: Hi,Im an agent in Virginia Beach and a Navy veteran.

I've only been in the space for 17 months, held 7 events, and people who have come to my events have picked up thousands of units on their own (Kelly Stumphauzer 160+ units, Dan Mitchen 100+ units, David Marsh 400+ units, Randy Lawrence 300+ units, Jack Petrick 500+ units, Phil Klima 100+ units, Steve Morris 300+ units, Jorge Abreu 250+ units, and on & on).
