Fantastic blog post toobusytowee !!! I hope everyone takes the time to read it Smile

Melaw21 · 16/03/2016 09:14

Oh btw hi percy! Thanks for joining us! Hopefully you were not deterred by the recent nonsense! Great to meet you! 👋👋👋

Melaw21 · 16/03/2016 09:14

Thanks throwing will go take a look!

cozietoesie · 16/03/2016 09:15

Might we have the link to that again, throwing? Smile

Melaw21 · 16/03/2016 09:21

toobusy great post, an issue well highlighted! So basically what the studies seem to be saying is Aloe vera gives you the shits if ingested, but does pretty much F.A else? Apart from hugely dent your bankbalance if purchased from FL?

Melaw21 · 16/03/2016 09:23

Do we know anything about potential overdose of ingested Aloe vera? Most supplements usually specify a recommended upper level, along with information about what can happen or what you should do if that is exceeded?

Twunk · 16/03/2016 09:23

I really do think the Penn & Teller video deserves an airing again. I love them anyway, and there's no mention of aloe to upset our spiky friends. (Note: they're all the same)

Eyes I am still shocked by your story. I'm so sorry you went through all that.

Melaw21 · 16/03/2016 09:25

I know its basically a plant and seems benign, but even bananas can cause excessive and dangerous potassium levels to accumulate in the body if too many are ingested over a condensed period for example.

Melaw21 · 16/03/2016 09:28

Have never watched the penn and teller vid twunk, will do so now,Also I think its easy to forget amidst all the noise and 'wampum' just how mlm has affected Eyes' life in a negative way, thank you for coming here to tell us your story Eyes, and thank you for being an advocate for those who may be too afraid to speak out...

HeffalumpHistory · 16/03/2016 09:28

Omg Eyespying!! How awful! Can't even begin to imagine what you've gone through.

Brilliant blog toobusytowee

TattyDevine · 16/03/2016 09:31

Is this compliant? It was shared to the wall of my bot after being posted by the person who did the "clean" 9. It mentions pounds lost, and tags names?

Hello all, Smile I have lurked for some time and I'm just unlurking as something needed saying.
natashabarnbotsshingles you say that your friend was never in Forever Living..... Hmm That is not true. She was in my uplines team. She was signed up by her daughter I believe and I still remember her 'day in the life' video, although it seems to have dissapeared now. Her why was to get out of debt if I remember correctly.

Well done MNers, obviously ruffling some feathers if you have people coming here just to lie Grin You have all done a fab job and everyone is talking about it so keep up the good work. Star

Eyespying · 16/03/2016 09:33

Twunk

Thanks.

I have to say that my experience was far worse than I have ever revealed publicly. I only managed to recover, because of my true friends.

In many respects, having loved ones fall under the influence of a cult, is worse than having them die, because the pain and grief can continue indefinitely.

The disturbing, reality-inverting mindset/behaviour of this WWC character, is currently virtually identical to that of members of my family when they were under the malign influence of their 'Amway' handlers.

NatashaBarnBotShingles · 16/03/2016 09:37

Morning!
Can someone explain please.... It was stated on last thread how this thread only mentions the "bots" who lie or live fake lifestyles.

Why was I mentioned?
I know your point was that someone commented on a shared post about my house rental stating I had purchased it. However, I have never once told anyone that and as the post was shared 85+ times I certainly don't police the comments. If an assumption was made I would've cleared it up as I did on my original post when someone asked if I had bought it. Probably a bit naive on my part to think people who didn't know me would know it was rented so I take that on board.
I also do not lie about my income as I have previously stated in other threads.
If ever I've had a team member tell me they are going to buy case credits I tell them not to!! You are free to check this with any of the team I work with. All my team that work with me get told repeatedly how important breaking ethics and compliance is, I absolutely cringe when I see blatant ignoring of this and I commend the fact that you are making an issue of this!

I was mentioned on here because you assume I lie, tar us all with the same brush policy. I am on a 6 month rolling tenancy in a house that is on the market, it may be sold or I may decide it's not for us long term. I've always said we would try it and see how we go. Do I lie to people when they ask about this business? No! I openly tell them it's hard work and it's not for everyone. I have refused to sign people up when I truly believe they won't be able to do it. Not everyone wants big income guys bare that in mind! Some are more than happy earning £100 a month retailing a few products. There are over 250 products in that range so just because someone doesn't like "gloop" doesn't mean there aren't other products people like. And whether you think they are a waste of money is your opinion.
This really comes down to common sense, if you join a company and spend a fortune without earning.... Don't!
I didn't put myself in debt to earn. I only spent a small portion of my earnings from forever on extra things that I was happy to do. You don't have to spend a fortune to get anywhere. You simply build your own small customer base.... Doesn't have to be friends. And you help your team do the same. Once you have a genuine customer base in place you then look after them! If everybody did exactly that there wouldn't be any arguments!
Ultimately you can never keep everyone happy.... In life in general! We can't force people to do it or not do it. It's a choice!
I am speaking from my own view here and can't speak for everyone but please don't assume we are all the same...... We are not!
😊

Or, in brief:

  • the only proven thing aloe will do is give you the runs. Aloe may be carcinogenic.

Welcome, Lurky. Smile

Thanks, Twunk. Smile

Thank you Prettyuseful. It's very busy over at Bot Watch. So much information to wade through, so much material for blogs. Lots of interesting articles to come...

I'd welcome ideas for blog posts. Do we want a comparison between real businesses and MLM? Comparison of MLM's opinion of the average person versus reality?
MLMs earning potential lies versus reality?

There's just so many lies to deal with!

Someone earlier mentioned a handout type thing were we put handy facts on. Who would this be aimed at? A person who is trying to recruit you? A person who is thinking of joining? Ideas welcome...

NatashaBarnBotShingles · 16/03/2016 09:45

That is correct.... She did have a FL business.... Retail! Because she purchased so much for personal use she got a discount from signing up. She no longer has that account and never pushed the business to earn high income. She loves the social aspect of it and continued to support those of us who are friends with her. She's not however a "bot" Infact she is well respected by high earners in our industry because she is a genuinely big hearted generous and caring successful business woman.... (Although a tad temperamental) 😂

Agree toobusy a handout is a sterling idea, perhaps even something that doctors can display in gp surgeries and hospitals warning people about the dangers of unlicenced supplements and bogus health claims? Just a thought? Eyes.... Truly truly sorry for what you have gone through, I hope that the support from all of us here has helped strengthen you a bit, even in the tiniest of ways.

Lurkylurker · 16/03/2016 09:56

I suppose that makes good sense natasha as I remember her saying that once you stop, even just for a little while, it all kind of goes downhill and how you have to maintain it. It must have been difficult for her to have kept up as many of us know you can't really do it part time and she worked very long days as it is.

Melaw21 · 16/03/2016 09:56

Oh and Hi lurky nice to meet you, hope you feel you can tell us your story at some point? (Ensure you maintain your anonymity whilst doing so of course)

NatashaBarnBotShingles · 16/03/2016 09:56

Fraud act??? Oh please! You ask questions.... I answer! I was originally only advised of this thread because it was posted on TV that I had lied about all expenses paid holidays! When I pointed out that actually they were 2 completely different holidays and that the TV post was unjustified no one responded!
The goal post gets moved and you find something else to grind about! You don't want answers..... You want a fan to sling shit at! A debate is a 2 sided discussion.... Haven't seen any evidence of that yet!
