Passport To Wealth affiliates are having to take a hard look at all the competition in the industry along with the ever rising cost of advertising.  The average retention in the industry is not good so that makes it an uphill battle as you continue recruiting.  Earning an income of $10k or more monthly residual via the P2W marketing business model is really becoming tough in the recession of today.  It is similar to trying to stay afloat with quick sand rushing below you as people quit.  Statistics show about 90% of affiliate marketers end up spending a larger outflow of cash than they ever bring in as income.  As many people get fed up with the high attrition rates of their downlines, you see more work at home entrepreneurs moving away from Passport to Wealth and/or the standard "2 Up" business models, in favor of other internet businesses because of the leverage and flexibility.  Only you can decide yourself if Passport is right for you!
