Lies, creative accounting and the Law of Reaction. Network marketers, we’re onto you - and so is the BBC:

Right, so recreational prescriptions are OK for Broke but cancer drugs are unacceptable? What a dick.

They're not recreational- he has 'aliments' (and a crutch that he doesn't need in the gym or in country walks with the dog & family, but appears every time he takes a selfie in the doctors' waiting room...).

Is Nurse diversifying into other markets?

Asking if anyone on Facebook sells wax melts is such a silly question it must be an engagement or recruiting tactic. But what?

Uber still struggling with injury
Promotion bot got man flu
I have heard on the grapevine that aloe helps or failing that you could ask broke if he has anything in his medicine cabinet 💊🌡🦠

I stand corrected Twenty 🙂

Re. Nurse asking about wax melts, I've seen quite a few bots do this before. It's a way of making the point that they "support local businesses" and like asking their friends first instead of going to a shop, so they can help "lift up other women" by buying from their bizniz.

The message being "Why aren't you buying all your skincare from ME and MY business!?"

So Nurse has been in Yawn's shed for amazing training. Yawn indeed.

Sometimes wax huns do a product swap with aloe huns to get rid of the pesky stock they've bought to meet their targets, too.

Castle has just done a live on her biz page. She will be doing lives daily for the next 2 weeks. Seems she is throwing herself back into it 🙄 in the house they couldn't sell. Her mum and dad are living there too.

I'm seeing more and more huns promoting each other's biznizes. I wouldn't be surprised if this is being actively encouraged to keep retail up after friends and family have all buggered off.

Castle live interesting 🤔
Regarding the possible swaps with other huns, it could be a new way of providing another source of present 🎁 giving for friends and family if you’re stuck for ideas.

There was a post about regulating alternative therapies on aibu this morning. It was scary how similar some of the language is to MLMs - if you're not getting better it's because of your negative mindset and you not believing enough, that sort of think. I can see the value of some of the theory behind mindset stuff but it is so badly abused and turned against vulnerable people.

Interesting thread brewing here about business / life coaches:

My JP bot has her DD back in hospital and she is going on about giving her some capsules 💊💊 as she forgot to put them in a smoothie this morning. Words fail me

What I'm finding really frustrating at the moment is that we know that there are less bits across all MLM's. FLP is the one we follow most closely and we can see very clearly what is happening there with the cheques. We also have the added bonus of FLP UK'S companies house accounts which spell it out for us how bad things have gotten.

It's frustrating because while there are less bots, there still are bots. Nurse is a great example of an mlm victim. It's great that there are less people like nurse getting ripped off, but that doesn't help nurse.

She doesn't want a solid gold toilet and private jet, she wanted to take her son to a theme park. Instead she had been ripped off and has spent more on aloe shite that 4 trips to the theme park with hotel would have cost.

There are people out there who today have spent money they can't afford on joining an mlm. Their heads full of dreams for the future when they make it big.

I wish they would make MLM's illegal in the UK. I actually don't understand why they don't. The facts are out there that most will lose money yet it is still legal.

I agree whiterangey. I just can’t understand how they are still legal.

Castles live (took me a while to find it. 😂😂) smacked of desperation I thought

I also am convinced she's overplaying her pre-mlm days. No way was she meek and mild with no friends before she "saw the light"

She alluded to coming back to UK to support family. I actually hope she's fibbing so her family are ok. 😂

I am surprised that Castles parents are still there, I thought the were bucket listing.
Why is Castle paying to ship stuff from Lanzarote? When my DD moved from Beijing to Thailand the school paid for it.
Nurse saying that FL is the top MLM to work with.The list does show many MLMs that I was unaware of.

So Broke is saying that in two weeks, his Company will be the first non-Canadian CBD snake oil company to be legally allowed to ship to the UK.

Does this mean that he has been shipping it in illegally until now?

He said they will be able to ship to Canada not to the uk

And in other news, Wales is an Island, according to Castle...

Thanks @CodenameVillanelle - I had scanned the post and missed the 'T' in 'there'!

Still, his company is US-based, why would anyone in Canada buy through a UK-based Bot - it is of no benefit to them whatsoever...

Speaking of Wales, It seems another MLM tv documentary is in the pipeline.

Saw an appeal on MLM Lies Exposed yesterday looking for Welsh reps to come forward. No mention of any particular company.
