Thread 5

Thanks Patzy.

Ah. Whoever has shall be given more ........???

This really is an evil cult. The more I learn, the more I can't believe how it's all just there in plain sight yet completely hidden from the mainstream. Hopefully with threads like these, the tide will begin to turn.

Interestingly, many of my 'manager' bot's team have been very quietly dropping off the meme-posting-love-bombing-aloe-euphoria radar recently and not mentioning it at all.

I keep thinking that surely manager-bot must be re-examining the whole thing in light of this but still she marches on. And she's a teacher for god's sake, she'll be lining up her students for recruitment soon.

I just feel so desperately sorry for all of these tired, vulnerable 'lower orders' who are being used and then cast aside on the rubbish heap when they sink. Much respect to those who have managed to get out. Much respect.

i think that's what happened to my stella & dot bot. she had a couple of bad months and I think she lost her downline. she quit not long after.

Definitely cozie, huge amount of respect for people who come out the other side. One of the people I know for sure that has dropped out is keeping it very quiet. She's embarrassed, plain and simple.
She posted wildly about this amazing future that she was going to have, sacking the boss and all the rest of it ad nauseum. She quite understandably now wants to avoid the 'I told you so' brigade but no doubt blames herself for 'not working hard enough' rather than the rotten system, which just stinks. I'm going to point her in the direction of this thread.

I can't help but feel pity for those who plug away. The Facebook groups with hundreds of people in and yet zero likes on posts. The pages with no interaction at all, unless it's a #foreverfriend popping by to love bomb. Even the cringey online parties with personally made videos going out to all your friend list where no one gets involved or orders anything, just tumbleweed.

It must sting a bit. You keep being told to push it, but deep down it must still hurt and make you question what you're doing.

Patzy

I'm concerned that these people aren't questioning what they are doing and the system in which they're doing it - but are rather questioning themselves. If you take a person who already stands a fair chance of being vulnerable (because they've been targeted) and then kick them when they fail? Well............

I have a barn-bot couple that moved into my village about a year ago. They apparently sold their three-bed semi and moved into a rented barn (natch) in the village but barn-bot woman was very careful to say on her FB that she was 'moving' rather than buying. Anyway, her husband sacked his boss at the same time she sacked hers. She has been at the managers' love-in today. While she was there, I took the oppo to have a dig around at the school gate and found out her mum pays her bloody rent for her and that her husband got a huge payout when he left his job so I presume they're living off that. They have also got the obligatory 4x4 and she's blonde, of course, with three little blonde girls who she can will her multiple six-figure debtincome to.

She's already recruited five women in our village (population: 500). Given we have only one tiny shop selling groceries, which sustains two people, I'm not sure the economics quite work out for six Aloe Vera sellers to be able to maintain their flashy lifestyles.

They're apparently 'eagle' managers but I don't really know what that means. I know they got a cheque for 4K at the last success day.

Dead behind the eyes, though, the pair of them.

Now I know about this thread though, I'll take be more careful to stick my beak in take notice of what they're up to. The parish pump here is absolutely out of control given the volume of old gossips. No-one can so much as eat a biscuit without someone shouting down the road "A moment on the lips...."

If anyone recognises who I'm talking about then please don't say - it would massively out me.

Sorry this isn't very readable but this is a genuine Forever Living flyer comparing working for them to other means of employment.

It's absolutely mind blowing! Boasting such things as willable (that word again), 'pension' through investing time (excuse me?), low start up costs (min £200), low overheads (min £166 pcm), no red tape (but check out that 8 thousand page policy handbook) etc.

All things that we KNOW are lies to hook them in.

But the one that really gets me is the comparison with a traditional business in wh it is states that it's takes 3 years to achieve profit...

I wonder how long it actually does take for someone in FL who isn't hand-picked to be a 'diamond' to genuinely turn a profit!

Could someone remind me. Are the words 'Tax Returns' and 'VAT Returns' ever mentioned in these flyers?

very interesting Leanne keep us all updated, I'm already slathering at the mouth for more goss.

cozie hahaha, no!

You should download and print off a few of the Timeless Vie 'Business Cards' and place them strategically around the hamlet.

Yep.

Leanne

One interesting (sic) thing to watch will be at the next village fete/church do/school whatever. There's bound to be at least one stall and the competition to run it might be fascinating to observe.
