Its forever living's global rally. Watching the top bots collect greatly reduced cheques.

Remember to always check companies house to check if someone in your upline is really earning what they say.

And it's blindingly obvious that they are all missing each other.

They're a close family and should be together, if they want. Another way that FL has made them unhappy.

Scottish Yogabot has a photo of her daughter posing with her 12k bonus cheque and saying how she managed to replace her and her husband's income within the first 18 months of flogging the aloe gloop. She doesn't mention that previous cheques were much higher but 12k is hardly going to lure folk in, is it?

JasperRising · 17/05/2019 08:55

I dunno DownThePan if you work for nwm or slightly above in an industry that doesn't do annual bonuses or where they are more like £1k max then actually I think 12k would be attractive even with the exchange rate. Especially, if you don't know they were higher previously and aren't told the truth about the success rate of the business and actual monthly earnings after expenses.

It is all very well knowing here that cheques are fewer and lower in amount but without context, the bonus cheques are a lot. Above 40k is more than many people earn in a year and the top three UK cheques are still more than most people could imagine having in their bank account.

Where would she live? Get house is for sale so she could move back in while it's on the market. Her parents have sold their house so they can't live there. What would they do with the Spanish rental?

Isn't the Spanish rental Lanza's place that she rented out to bots?

Live by your decisions. To think that they gave up a real career, with real progression options, sick pay, holidays and a genuine 'willable' income in the form of their spousal pension.

However, greed or stupidity or a combination of the two has resulted in them technically having no home, no steady income and very little job opportunities that do not rely upon MLM. I know a lot of business owners in around Wales / South West and the FL gang are notorious for not being overly pleasant or in the future employable. The word arrogant and condescending was used a lot.

Whiterangey · 17/05/2019 10:17

I think it's mostly greed. Most people would rather go without than have to screw over thousands of other women to get rich.

Top bots don't care.

They want the money and the adoring downlines and they don't care how many lives they have to destroy.

Obviously now they are finding out that it doesn't last forever and are sulking about it. They are so screwed financially in the next year or two. It will be funny to watch. Though I do feel sorry for the children who are old enough to realise they have gone from a great standard of living to barely making ends meet.

Especially feel bad for the private school children, that will be quite an upheaval.

How is Castle dealing with sons education?
Talking of which how is exams for Yawns children and does daughter still want to go into bizniz?

Awholeheapofnothing · 17/05/2019 13:25

Unfortunately a lot of them believe their own BS and hype - often because they get so used to people within their organisation, not challenging them - outside in the real world they adopt the same process and will brow beat anyone who would dare to disagree!
I have witness first hand some of our so called Top Bots in action - believe me it's a sight to behold!

Jasmin82 · 17/05/2019 13:26

I see Broke is claiming that the MLM industry pays people 40K a year on the MLM-Lies Exposed group. The guy is seriously deluded. How many MLMs does he need to fail at before he twigs that maybe, just maybe, it's the industry that's the issue not the people trying to flog the crap products?

Spongebobette · 17/05/2019 13:26

@Awholeheapofnothing do tell! I’m all ears

SSDGM · 17/05/2019 15:08

Says a lot when he thinks £40k is being very well off. It’s definitely enough, but it’s really not wealthy.

I really wanted to ask him if he was still sleeping on someone’s sofa.

Jesus... Uber has just recruited a GP who loves the health benefits of the products. How could an actual doctor get sucked in to Forever??!

BSintolerant · 17/05/2019 16:54

There are stupid people in every profession.

gotmychocolateimgood · 17/05/2019 16:56

Very true! 😄💯

BSintolerant · 17/05/2019 17:28

It’s also possible that as a GP she’s overworked, stressed, hardly has time for herself ... Uber has no doubt found her weak spot. It won’t last though.

Whiterangey · 17/05/2019 17:39

I wouldn't want to be a GP, they put up with so much for not enough money. Not to mention they became doctors to care for people and they are only allowed a few minutes with each patient or their statistics or whatever suffer.

So many leave the profession each year because of the stress I'm not shocked that one of them is looking for an easy way out of the profession.

Broke is still using his 60 point system.

You get points for posting on Facebook and messaging.

Serious business when it's points for an emoji.

I'm just going to sit back and wait for him to do the usual.

The fully legal business that he's in is great right now but we are just a few months away from his live where he exposes the company and leaders like he's the people's watchdog.

He's a divvy.

Why people still follow him when he's been 'duped' by so many companies that he's had to 'expose' is beyond me.

Hardly front page news is it? 'mlm company is a scam' yet he acts like he's breaking the news to the world.

Broke acting like an authority in magic mushrooms, overpriced CBD and business is all I need for comedy.

CodenameVillanelle · 17/05/2019 17:43

For a somewhat naive person (from any walk of life) the spiel that someone like Uber can give must be very enticing. They tell the marks that they can work a few hours a week from home, they tell them the products are super popular, and don't focus at all on team building.
Of course any GP who is still working will inevitably crash out of MLM as they won't have the time it takes to even break even. But the lies are attractive.

CodenameVillanelle · 17/05/2019 17:44

Broke keeps referring to getting stoned on (actual) weed too. If he's trying to paint his CBD as something legitimate he's not doing a very good job!

JasperRising · 17/05/2019 17:55

GPs are usually self employed aren't they? Hopefully she will at least have the experience to spot when the time worked/expenses aren't stacking up against money coming in...
(I'm not even going to start on the health side of things!)

fromdownwest · 17/05/2019 18:03

They are generally self employed, but many are also employed too. Some by Universities, some by hospitals.

I would be very nervous as a GP even being associated with a product that has historically at least made some very spurious claims. Professional standards for a GP have far more teeth than your upline mega biznezzzz entrapenuer (SIC) 6 figure earner

@gotmychocolateimgood I know a very intelligent Consultant who is a bot for Arbonne. She kept leaving brochures around the office with little comments on the front about being vegan and cruelty free.

Having the means to go through medical college does not make someone a selfless healer, nor does it make one above using one's status to milk others to supplement an already decent income.
