ihateforeverlivingwithapassion · 16/01/2016 21:50

Oooops i forgot to mention earlier i was doing a bit of snooping & me ex flbot has another flbot on her friends list so i decided to have a nosey... I found that although her "business" is doing so incredibly well she's looking to move house because her landlord is sooo tight with money but she cant afford a £50,000 deposit to buy/take out a mortgage 😂😂 (judging by her fb) shes been an flbot quite a few years... So im thinking she should be able to buy a house by now surely 😉😂 what a crock of shit they talk business good my arse !!

ihateforeverlivingwithapassion · 16/01/2016 21:51

Ooh, sminkypink, good find! Other bots have been much more careful with that image. That one had clearly overstepped the line!

clarinsgirl · 17/01/2016 00:35

Victoria Gregory is an flbot worth a look. Owner at MPV natural living international Hmm

super power team supernova boak

It's totally as was said on this thread - business as viewed through a toddlers eyes. Ridiculous team names, relentless posing. Cheering and clapping. The frightening thing is that they believe this bullshit as to the outsider, it's obviously ridiculous.
And how can they spend quite so much time training? There is nothing to teach. No substance.

stopfaffing · 17/01/2016 09:02

Here is one of Victoria's memes. Who does she think she's kidding Hmm.

Spikeypants02 · 17/01/2016 09:45

I'm intrigued at the level of lying going on-in EC's case the whole family are involved and things don't stack up. Shaun Cooper supposedly resigned from the police in Feb (FB post with a resignation certificate) but he still has that as his work on his FB page and it has been said on here (from EC's you tube stuff), that he was only taking a career break. Interestingly he set up Shaun Cooper PT Twitter account, touting his PT business, months before the Feb when she posted his resignation certificate. It will be interesting when it all starts unravelling.....

darceybussell · 17/01/2016 09:47

Re the toddler mentality- I thought that too - the video earlier that mentioned 'superstar training' made me cringe!

I guess Victoria is saying 'yes of course it's a scam but it's fine because lots of other things are too'.

I've got quite a close relative into one of these now, she got a baptism of fire trying to sell to one of my family members so I really hope she's going to give up - but she's forked out an extra £100 for a website and extra again to become some kind of superior consultant, so she's got a lot to make back now!

disappointed101 · 17/01/2016 11:55

So where does the money go that these bots pay to see these exhibitions/talks? My bot has done the two day so hotel expenses too.

SixtyFootDoll · 17/01/2016 13:06

I'm sure EC lives near me, she talks about her husband and friends being police officers who've left the job to become FL business owners.
I'm in the police force local to her and I've never heard of any of them.

SixtyFootDoll · 17/01/2016 13:20

Ah, he was GMP.
the house is definitely rented, I know the guy that had it built. He's def not involved in this.
House has been up for sale for years.

ambler21 · 17/01/2016 13:26

The power team bots are currently being taught about the 'Quantum theory of infinite intelligence' by Dave the rave Oconnor. An offshoot of the law of attraction. Poor souls are #smashingit

sminkypink · 17/01/2016 13:28

Quantum theory of supreme, ultimate bollocks, surely....

MrGrumpy01 · 17/01/2016 13:32

disappointed it goes higher up the chain and at a guess pays for some of the flashy cheques that are given out at success days.

The sad thing is that the majority of the money in FL is cyclic money. There simply isn't the market for them to be making the kind of money just from selling a few toothpastes to gullible loyal customers.

Very little money is made from the products (other than what they buy for personal usage) money is made from the 'extras'

RainOhJoyus · 17/01/2016 15:36

My favourite bit is "venue and river look amazing" at the Worcestershire awards.
Yes the river looks amazing, it is flooding nearby buildings in your photos, and its burst its banks. Oh got to love the positive spin Hun.

disappointed101 · 17/01/2016 16:02

Thank you MrGrumpy. I wonder how long it takes for the majority of them to make back all these outgoing costs. Why is it that they need to pay exactly? Ok I get venue hire but a 1000x £50 is a lot of money

MrGrumpy01 · 17/01/2016 16:11

I think many if they worked out their incomings vs outgoings would end up negative.

They don't even get a coffee in the ticket price, so after venue hire plus a sound and lighting team the money ends up lining the pockets of the tops. I imagine Dave will have charged a substantial appearance fee and the likes of NH etc will get 'paid' but the rest just continues to pay to keep up the charade.

Wadingthroughsoup · 17/01/2016 18:28

I totally agree re the toddler mentality! A lot of these women behave as if they're playing at being grown-ups. Like it makes them feel important to be going here and there with a laptop and a latte and throwing around phrases that they think make them sound like proper grown-ups.

Wadingthroughsoup · 17/01/2016 18:32

Claire is grateful that Tina nervously revealed her 'little business' to her Grin
