In response to Lori Falce’s column “How multilevel marketing ‘parties’ have destroyed real parties” (Oct. 1, TribLIVE): There are legitimate “side hustles” and there are MLMs. I worked as a professional for 35 years and always had a party plan business as a sideline. I met a lot of great people and earned some memorable trips. I never coerced anyone to give me money or recruit others.
It’s wrong to generalize all party plans as MLMs, and it’s an insult to insinuate that women can’t tell the difference.
