We are going to rip on the 20-something broke kid who was probably recruited into the program by someone they trusted with an MLM type vibe?

This is MLM to me.

Developed by Icade Promotion and Groupe Duval, the site is already 90% leased just months after completion, with tenants like Nocibé, a French cosmetics distributor, leading the charge.

I would say it all depends on location.For me, Home Depot is the most convenient for building materials (wood, sheetrock, screws), but for finishes including appliances, cabinets, windows, and flooring, I shop around my local distributors.

I do not see how this could be taxable income to me as I am not a party to their transactionWith the HUD scenario I listed above, HUD offered up to 3% and I decided I wanted 0%Lets say I am a distributor for a restaurant supply company. 

strongbrooks  and other MLM type things.. another utah fullfilment guru..

ya your on the right track suspect like a MLM pyramid very few get there. 

Flower distribution, Power drink distribution, tortilla distribution, small tool distributor, etc. 

It is all very MLM (multi-level marketing) to me.  

I have net 90 billing through my distributors though.
