I'm not sure if there's any way to pursuade someone from the "instant gratification generation". They either do or they don't.
I believe in natural consequences. When someone tells you from experience that you will get hurt if you do what they did, and you don't listen, nature has a way of giving you the consequences. And nature is a very good teacher.
Until you've been burned, the heat doesn't mean anything to you. Telling someone that SFI isn't a get rich scheme means nothing to someone who is out for instant riches.
I spoke to someone the other day and told them that there's no real business that will pay you instant wealth. And he replied that he didn't want to have to work for anything, he wants it now. I just said good luck with that.
Serious people will work the business and will succeed. So don't worry too much about the ones who don't. Just keep promoting and work with the workers. The rest will come around once they figure out that all the get rich schemes are just that - schemes.
