Opportunity Cost
What makes the siren song of money-making schemes, cults, spiritual gurus, scams, and conspiracies of all kinds so irresistible? What is it about the desires of the human heart that make us vulnerable to such subterfuge?
Opportunity Cost, hosted by Jill, cobbles an auditory scrapbook of old videos, soundscapes, interviews, and commentary together in an attempt to uncover the history, nuances, and manipulation behind these cultural phenomenon.

Opportunity Cost S1 Trailer
How did multi-level marketing become a $186B industry? What does it mean to lose your identity and find it somewhere else? Are distributors who build teams of hundreds underneath them victims? Or are they villains?
Maybe the answer to these questions is somewhere in the middle. Who we are determines what motivates us, how we make decisions, and who we trust. This includes when someone we know or don’t know tells us we can have everything we’ve ever wanted…by joining their network marketing company.
I invite us to take a look under the hood to find that these companies and their representatives are much more complicated than they appear. Each episode, I try to answer the question, is this the opportunity of a lifetime? Or the illusion of one?
