I started a franchise nearly two decades ago and lost far, far more than the so called grieved party quoted in this article. Yet no one blamed the franchisee, that "it" didn't work. What about HIM working for himself? Network marketing allows an ease of entry and an upside potential that is unmatched in any other approach to generating an income. But you have to work.

That he saw fault with Usana is a demonstration of his ignorance of their status in both network marketing (best company, nine years in a row) and in nutritional supplementation (highest rating, Comparative Guide to Nutritional Supplements, all 4 editions).

The so called class action, that probably is scrounging for participants, is doomed to fail as it is based on a group of people's unwillingness to work.

As for me, I have worked my tail off and have much to show for it as a result. I will quit my regular job this year and live a life with a time freedom and a financial freedom most only dream of.

Get to work folks, IT doesn't work, YOU do. And it's worth the effort.

Oh, I don't see anyone claiming gross overpricing of Mercedes compared to Saturn, or a 5 star hotel compared to a one star. Yet Minkow makes that claim by comparing 1 star vitamins to Usana's 5 star Gold Medal rated nutritionals (compare both in the Comparative Guide to see what I mean.)

And the press just reprints the information like it is truth with no attempt to verify or present the alternative, and in this case more accurate view.

Sit an watch folks, Usana will be the Microsoft or IBM of nutritional science within the next decade. And Minkow? He will be renounced as fraudulant once again.

And the potshots at Dr. McNamara are unjustified. He is a fine man, working very hard to support people he brings into the business as well as many, many others throughout Usana. He gives hours and hours of his time away. He is a giver, not a taker in life.
