The continuing crusade to expose the underhand tactics used to lure (mainly) women into exploitative schemes using the lure of 'financial independence'.

Homeschool's 'life coach' husband recently did a live about how to spot a narcissist.

Oh. The. Irony.

I frequently see loads of them hanging around Longbridge Manor...

UnapologeticallyUnhinged · 01/03/2019 17:59

Btw if you google that a link to a video from 2014 may appear.

Irony rolled up into a ball and died of shame when it saw Forever Living bots’ claims

NakedAvenger · 01/03/2019 20:04

Poor Broke. Back in the car again. But it's okay cos he's got his biz nailed

Underhiseye2 · 01/03/2019 20:08

Clue for broke please?

Spongebobette · 01/03/2019 20:21

Yawn is beginning to look like a caricature of herself

UnapologeticallyUnhinged · 01/03/2019 20:57

Oh my god Broke is a proper shit show.

I have no sympathy because he seemingly has kids but refuses to get a proper job.

And now his Facebook friends have got him and the dog a hotel room for the night.

Poor dog.

DownThePan · 01/03/2019 22:04

Pinkhairbot didn't sell enough to make the next rank up. The Live she did a couple of days ago was painful to watch, she seems very vulnerable and another one caught in the MLM-train

Twentytwentyhindsight · 01/03/2019 22:13

Brooke's deleted the post in the car.

He claims that, regardless of his other current issues, at least is business is AOK, but he still has to scrounge the 40-odd quid for a night in a Travelodge...

@Twentytwentyhindsight Earlier today Broke was boasting about how he gets paid weekly from his latest MLM scam biz. The delusion is strong in that one!

Norma27 · 02/03/2019 05:31

Yawn really is a caricature of herself.
How can she not realise how bizarre she is.

NakedAvenger · 02/03/2019 05:37

@Norma27 that self congratulatory post about rescuing dogs and how grateful they are to her is buttock clenching.

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 02/03/2019 08:02

Yawn's 'Likes' on her posts are dwindling too as she desperately scrabbles around for things to post about.

She posted before 8pm last night about a teen sleepover and it's had 1 like!!

Incidentally the 'like' is from Yawn's "Top Retailer". A glance at her FB profile shows her selling loads of stuff like bags and clothes but also reduced price FL stock.
I wonder if this Top Retailer was her own best customer and is now trying to flog it to clear garage space?

Spongebobette · 02/03/2019 08:31

Good point Kenny and she’s undercutting others in Yawn’s downline with those prices.
That’ll make her popular
Teamwork eh?

Paddy1234 · 02/03/2019 10:28

Considering she has 10k followers on her business page - the tiny amount of likes and interaction must be worrying.
I have seen the same with ex Welsh down line trying to get into coaching. There must be a time when they think 'it's over - let's just stop the pointless posts'
Even the top three have to put in a lot of personal posts intermingled with business posts to hide the lack of likes surrounding the biz

Bungalowbeth · 02/03/2019 10:41

Isn’t flogging FL stuff on eBay and Marketplace a big no no ?

Jonsey32 · 02/03/2019 11:41

You know there was a time when I really willed Broke on. I thought he was just a bit wet behind the ears etc.
Now he just exasperates me. He stumbles from one thing to the next and it’s all better than what came before, be that the latest MLM or girlfriend or whatever.
Is he a victim of MLMs or just a victim of life in general.
When he bigs something up it is always disproved with the next crisis that he stumbles into. Bragging about pay and then needing a whip round to stay in a hotel for the night.
It’s no life for him and no life for the kids.
He’d be better getting himself a regular minimum wage job and have a set income.
I despair!

notsurewhatshappening · 02/03/2019 11:54

There's loads of mlm stock on eBay and local FB selling groups. As far as I know there is a compliance team for most MLMs who say this sort of thing is not allowed, but they must turn a blind eye
They want the bots to keep being their own best customers after all.

UnapologeticallyUnhinged · 02/03/2019 11:58

Yes Broke has been on a deleting mission and is once again 'single'.

I'm sure it's nothing that can't be fixed with #morecbd

SSDGM · 02/03/2019 12:11

I have got absolutely no sympathy for Broke whatsoever. He gives it all Billy Big Bollocks while being an actual car crash.

suedoname · 02/03/2019 12:26

@Paddy1234 is ex welsh downline the husband and wife team?

I've noticed his likes tend to come from his wife and MIL just wondering if it's the same person.

Whiterangey · 02/03/2019 15:16

No sympathy for Broke, especially as there are children involved in his train wreck life.

Yawn's desperation is showing I've noticed.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 02/03/2019 17:58

FLP's Scottish Success Day looks a lot more intimate and exclusive than a few years ago...

Looks like there are fewer seats in the room than there were new managers on stage back in the day.

"This industry is made for stay home (sic) parents who want that comfyier (sic) lifestyle," says Broke who has repeatedly left the mother of his children for another woman, and now lives in a car...

UnapologeticallyUnhinged · 02/03/2019 20:52

@Twentytwentyhindsight don't forget yesterday's 'poor me' post (since deleted) where he asked why pointing out other people's flaws and shouting at them to help to make his point is so wrong (I expect this was a woman he was passively aggressively referring to)

The absolute epitome of a dead beat dad.
