One thing I think is funny is that even if this was true why is this a big deal, we talk about full disclosure and expecting CEO’s, Politician’s, etc to reveal all their interests because it impacts a lot of people if there is a conflict of interest.

Again it is a rumor, but it would make sense if it wasn’t

i believe that “if” they were approached about signing a doc for such reasons, it was probably going to be due to sharing pertainant information during that time that could be “competetive” in sorts to not allow a direct infiltration and filtering of that information to another company.

if this is the case, then they have every right to filter those individuals out per there rules.

thier rules state not that they cannot have have other mlm-type businesses, but that they cannot use thier quixtar/ag business as a form to bring them over to the other companies. that is where people would run into problems.

also, that if they chose to have those other affilitations, then they could be omitted from different business meetings or trip benefits, etc depending on what type of information was going to be shared, or even some of the additional bonuses.

there are always meetings on these trips, and there is always information shared with those that qualify to hear it. and in turn, they teach it to thier groups.

this is no diferent in the regular business world. if you work for att wireless, you are not going to be sitting in on the sprint presidents club meeting and trips. doesnt matter if you are friends or not. you will not be there. also, in those areas, if lets say a cell phone store sells multiple carriers and still achieves that status, sprint would have the right to not send them do to non-exclusivity to protect thier competitive information from the other carriers.

funny, how there will be people who will agree with the cell phone carrier example (which i have seen happen) and they will poo-poo the same sinerio when they call it amway/a*/ag?!
