  1. ~Although not officially recognized as a top country on most peoples MLM power list, I have to say that the Netherlands are a critical “key stone” for anyone wanting to move in to, and effectively operate in, some of the largest markets in the EU (i.e. Germany #4, UK #8, Italy #9, Russia #10, France #11 and Scandinavia, etc.).
    ~Rules and Regs. a(R&R) are reasonable, the people are flexible, Policies and Procedures are obtainable and the opportunity is unbelievable.
