Default Interested in Ameriplan, but....

I've been looking into what I can do from home to make some extra cash. I ran into a local with an ad for Ameriplan and did some research. I am very interested, but have had some not so great experiences with direct selling. Not because I couldn't do it. I did not mind telling or showing people product. I sold cosmetics, but the inventory grew larger than my sales all because I was trying to keep my discount and with parties, etc. it took up way too much of my time, but overall can't say it was a horrible experience. I did some jewelry selling about a year ago, when I received an email that the company folded. I couldn't fill any of my orders, had to cancel scheduled parties, and then couldn't sell unless I applied for a seller's permit, blah,blah etc. Needless to say, I lost money again and was stuck with items I didn't need or necessarily want.

Anyway, my biggest concern is that, I'm sure like others, I don't want to lose any money again.
The question is, how would this be any different than the others, other than the fact that I wouldn't have to carry inventory?

I did request an interview on Monday, but haven't heard anything yet. I read through some of the threads and found that it would actually benefit to interview with a few before making a decision. Any input, advice, information you can provide about joining Ameriplan would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Cynthia
