Dear Roni,
I don't know your background or education, but
you must be very naive or misinformed (or both)
if you believe that such schemes can work.
They can't, and not because people are 'dishonest',
but because this is impossible mathematically.
Go to any colleage and ask any instructor in
mathemaics to explain you why not. This is
called exponential function and even if the
entire population of the planet participate
in this scheme, and even if all of them with
play "honestly", there won't be any more new
people just after few rounds of this game.
Or go to a bookstore and ask something on
recreational mathemaics (easy to read).
Your gains will be much greater.
