		<description>Hi

This mail is long down the line timewise because I have been ill/in shock

Two years of hard work building an SU team based on education and elevating people through personal development - Down the drain

Friends ripped off - Colleagues in dire financial situations - Where is my integrity now to start a new business 

R50 000 of my retirement money - Down the drain

No wonder MLM has such a bad name - THANKS MATT MORRIS AND CLOSE ADVISORS - NO NAMES MENTIONED 

You dumped us and saved yourselves

You even conned us into getting all the failed business owners to contribute yet another months subscription to be welcomed back into this wonderful opportunity - COUPLE OF MILLION EXTRA

5 months after merger/take over/sell out

No adequate training given in South Africa - Who can afford an overseas trip plus accomodation to be trained on the very product you want us to sell marketing/travel and the ROVIA website is still not active to earn commission 

Yes - I can put it down to an expensive learning experience but what do I tell the people who trusted me and are now the laughing stock of their communities 

I am ashamed to have been part of all of this - Complaint filed with DSA for all it is worth

		<description>It all comes back to the fact that when you&#039;re building an mlm company, that is in fact what you&#039;re doing... building THEIR company.  You&#039;ve got NO control.

Do we really know that Kalpesh, Johnny, and the other leaders were in on it?  No.  And I don&#039;t blame them.  They really couldn&#039;t have made a difference if they wanted to.  They would&#039;ve been risking their entire business so doing a &quot;coup&quot; would&#039;ve been just as counter productive.

The solution?? --&gt; build YOUR business.  Built around You, Inc...  Where YOU are the reason people join, not the company...

I&#039;ve built my company through creating my own products AND promoting affiliate offers/mlm.  But my company always will come first.. ;-)

To Your Success,
Adam Holland</description>

		<description>This is my mail I sent to Kalpesh Patel, My opinion is somewhat more outspoken to yours. ;-)

Hello Kalpesh,

It was a pleasure to talk to you today and to hear that you do understand the scam (and the word is an understatement) that Mr. Morris you and Mr. Wimbrey have done to many of thousands of members around the world. The really unbelievable factor resides in precisely what Success University stood for and what you yourself gave as being the top industry because of its intellectual, mental, non-palpable but real product accessible to all and everyone around the globe.

What really hurts, and what will not be digested is that you sold our e-mails to a company whose business is incompatible to thousands of members for your own advantage and knew this full well. To dispatch this as normal business practice is simply horrendous as well as being laid down to a basic Internet fraud. Obviously having done this once you will lose all perspectives of normal business practices and may well finish off by increasing your luck to greater frauds when your needs call for it.

There were many alternatives to “merging” Success University for the advantage of its members, but the easy apparent choice was taken, and that is where the pit hole will soon call it a day for having chosen a contradiction to the adage that success is only achieved when no collateral chaos is accepted. Mr. Bernard Madoff did a better job in this field but then age and experience was on his side.

If these words seem hard, then remember that pressing the button, or tipping the applecart, is simply to wake you up to reality and in hoping that you will one day walk the true talk you were personally darned good at. In the mean time I will obviously continue to advise verbally and by forums and blogs about this criminal rip-off you condescend to having masterminded.

Yours sincerely,

Robert.</description>

		<description>Adam, I too, was called by my original sponsor in Success University (Trish Smith) to re-join just 2 days prior to the &quot;launch&quot; of the merger.  I DID, and then realized that there really is no more Success University.  I wasted $49.  

Well,  I dropped it like a lit match, and began looking for something else.  I am now trying Passport to Wealth, by signing up through the &quot;free trial&quot; on June 30th.   Anyone familiar with it? It costs $997 to purchase the software products, but that is also the commision I get from every sale too.

Any suggestions?

		<description>Yea, they had a great product...

And I&#039;m familiar w/ Cardamone&#039;s system - he&#039;s a great leader and always tries to put together great training and content for his team...  Now, will he revamp everything for WV?  who knows, that&#039;s up to him...

		<description>Hi Adam,

All I can say is wow! What is going on?

This is weird but a couple of months ago I cancelled my monthly subscription to SU. Not because I was dissatisfied, it was because I had my fingers in too many pies. So I streamlined down to my MLM and GDI...which keeps on truckin. SU must have also packed it in the following month.

I only found out about this news tonight whilst surfing in Traffic Swarm. Jason Cardamone has revamped his SU Copycat - the new mix just does not compute.

On a positive note I still have hours of CD&#039;s and DVD&#039;s and I continue to feed the brain and move forward.

Thanks to Matt, Johnny, Ned, Kapesh and all the other leaders and Faculty providers like Todd F who provided such amazing content and inspiration.

		<description>Hey James.  Thanks for your post.  I&#039;ve heard of at least a few SU reps transitioning over to iLearning Global.

Other notable opps out there would be: Liberty League Int&#039;l (just google Tony Rush), Lifepath Unlimited (just do a search for Jenn Lawlor and get on her team), and I&#039;m sure there&#039;s a few others..

This could be a BIG opportunity for other companies out there picking up disgruntled SU reps...  ;-)</description>

		<description>I am very interested in how this all went down and how it will work.  I wish Success University Marketers all the best, as we are in the same industry.  I am Director for Brian Tracy&#039;s iLearning Global and we were shocked by this news of the merge.  As a new Network Marketing Company that offers personal development and business training, we are hearing more and more about marketers like yourself not quite understanding.  So I am going to continue to check back here and see if I can fully understand it.  Again, I wish all the marketers the best, this industry is the greatest in the world (both actually, MLM and Personal Development)!  In a way we are all on the same team, see you all at the top!
