Going back to school

While I admit that lenders and networks have done a lot in the last year to try to entice new people into the market, I believe the problem is actually far more wide-reaching.

To truly and completely get new blood into this market, we need to start the process at school level.

Financial education is sorely lacking in this country, so much so that many of us would happily run up debts on credit cards without actually thinking about how we can repay them.

If financial education was provided in school, then not only would there be a better understanding of how personal finance works, but people could actually start to understand the advantages of working in this market.

To truly tap into the unknown and get people into this market, we need to start educating the general public on its mechanics.

Until then, the stemmed flow of new people will continue to falter.
