Have you ever been involved with Multi-Level-Marketing?

12. The closest I got was to be solicited to sign up as a Mary Kay person

The bookkeeper at my CPA's office tried to get me to sign up. Major difficulties - I am allergic to scents and back then, Mary Kay products stank to high heaven, plus I did not wear make up. I'm not sure what her thought process was but she got so obnoxious about calling to pester me I spoke to the CPA about what she was doing and he shut her down cold.

He didn't fire her, but made it clear that if she tried to approach another of his clients for something like that, she would be out on her ass. She was very cold and rude to me after that. That was OK since I no longer needed the bookkeeping part of the CPA's business. I'd bought my first computer and found a checkbook program which was sufficient for allocating expenses and income. I paid for the computer by what I saved the first year alone in bookkeeping fees.

Best revenge I could have gotten!
