A pyramid scheme is a pyramid scheme, whether you're selling luck or recipes. I don't believe that the legal system really cares what you're selling, it's the nature of the scheme which is illegal (and fraudulent; I believe in Eastern Europe it's commonly 'stocks' which are sold in these schemes, though what value stocks in a pyramid scheme have is questionable...) -- Brian Lowry
