Great question!

Yes, students 18 or older would be great candidates, for several reasons;

* they have a more social life
* they have more friends
* they have more free time
* they are more computer literate since they grew up with technology
* they have their whole future ahead of them

Imagine how great it would be for a college student to get started in this business, they could be a millionaire by the time they are 25, if they worked the system

There are many facets to answering this question. Age/maturity of student would have the greatest impact on whether SFI would be good for them.

Financially, in time it would be fantastic for them, since it could eventually support them for the rest of their lives!! If they are a serious student, it might be difficult for them to maintain good grades and do a good job with SFI.

Generally speaking, I do not think a young student (18-24 +/-) would make a good choice of affiliate

I think SFI is a excelent possibility for students.
Allows them easier and quick entry into the world of business, since it does not require any investment. Teaches them things that are important for their further life and success in life (persistence, diligence, thoroughness), enabling them financial freedom and success in a future.They have a possibility to earn while studying, and at the same time, if they are diligent and hardworking, provide them financial freedom and security for the

Hello Chidinma Ogoke

This is very nice question

The answer is yes,it´s good. Because,they start earning maybe their first paycheck. They are young and they wont to discover new business,friends,new ways of earnings etc. SFI is good for everyone who point of this job. In SFI,you can bring people with 18,30 or even 50 and more years old. Why? Because,whole point of this job is to be honest and a good teacher. When you get a member,you teach him/her in the way like you´re taught.

I am inclined to believe that as a former grad student, my reading assignments and term papers, compilations/sourcing, took-up most of my day-time activities, meaning, as with any study plans the focus is on research and that of term paper formulation. I wish now that I could have remembered to face back in the direction of SFI, at that time that additional income would have been nice. But I can say without a doubt, my focus was on my research work at that time. Even when I was checking out at the

There are various reasons, in my opinion that students may not be inclined to pursue this business, either full time or part time because of the following observations.

1. SFI and the success of the business depends primarily on duplication and how active your team members are- that means support the team.
- students will not have the time to put in the efforts for both these activities as studies will be a priority.

2. The students expect returns on the business

First I would like to answer the second question why not.
My concern about this question, it’s completely depends on the students.
A students (their parents) main motive is to complete their education in good level.
If they start earning when they matured there is a chance to drop their studies and concentrate on earning only.
It may result problem in their family.
If we are taking about the first question why
SFI is a good platform for a student who is focusing on

Is SFI good for students (18 years or older)?

My answer was YES, it is good for them. By joining, they can access various knowledge and informations they can use as additional reference on their studies specially those students taking marketing and/or computer course.

However, based on my personal experience students affiliates are having problems in maintaining their EA rank due to limited financial capacity...most students relied on their parents/guardians financially so it

Yes, it is good for students, moms, retired employees or even those who are still working in a company, because you can do SFI even if you only have few minutes of your time. If you are a student and you want to have an extra income, SFI is great because it is easy to understand and the tasks are easy to do, too. And I think it is better for a person to learn business at an early age so that he will be responsible with his spendings and with his future. Aside from that, a student can also promote
