I thought Nurse was a new victim however I searched her name to view the latest live and she’s tagged in some forever posts from way back in 2010 😕

Seen that one of the winners of the Forever Living cheque winners, had recruited her DIL. Quite sad really as DIL had a decent career. They are even willing to sell their DIL's up the river!

Are those cheques real? Or are they as bullshit we the rest of MLM?

@LaNouba wow you are right. Her on stage at a 2010 success day?! Pretty sure yawn was 'introducing her' to FL last year. How weird.

Oh my goodness Nurse has been in the cult since 2010?
Why isn’t she living her dream life of financial freedom???

I wasn't expecting that!
So if Yawn didn't recruit her last year she isn't in her downline then? I'm being thick but I don't get it.

Are the success days real though?!

@RelativePitch we are locals! Disappointed to see a teacher from one of DD's groups has donated.

I can’t understand why nurse seems so amateur if she has been on the go since 2010?

In most people’s careers that would be a lifetime ago

I think Nurse joined for a while in 2010 under a different upline, left for years then rejoined under Yawn.

She obviously didn’t learn her lesson! Who the hell signs back up having already seen it’s all smoke and mirrors and left previously.

@VTechnophobe- we are indeed in the FLP heartland and as for the teacher who donated, she is also my DS's teacher! But you can't blame people for not knowing the full machinations of these schemes.

It's not unusual for bots to leave and then come back. 10 years is a long time though. They leave the mlm because it wasn't the MLM's fault they didn't make money, it was their fault because they didn't work the bizniz.

So many people will work their way through multiple MLM's before seeing the light.

It sucks.

Cringe cringe cringe at all the photos with the pool inflatables at the Success Day
That's as close as most of them will come to the Bahamas

*The ex FLP bot on MLM Lies is my new favourite person. She is not being quiet about her experiences and what she has seen.

Not all heroes wear capes*

It’s great she’s calling out FLP Whiterangey though if she’s the ex-FLP bot I’m thinking of she’s currently signed up to Tropic, which I know must feel less aggressive than FLP but she clearly hasn’t totally understood the problem with MLM.

If you are on Instagram then hunbotcomics is definitely worth a follow, so funny and so tragically true.

I'm still confused as to how PHD is in Australia legally. Especially as her partner is a kiwi. I know two couples who feel in love online, one of my friends emigrated to the US and another had his now wife come from the USA to here.

The only way either couple could do that was by getting married. They do not mess around.

They may plan on getting married but wont have long to do so. He would also have to prove he can support her as her earnings are erratic and likely non existent at this point.

I wonder if PHD has an ancestry visa? She does have cousins who live there

Or she's a "highly skilled migrant"- they need more essential oil coaches in Oz!

ITV are making a documentary about MLM in Wales. The producer is interested in FLP. I know a few stung by FLP but not in Wales but I’m thinking there MUST be some ex-huns in Wales who need to get things off their chest - any thoughts FLP experts?

What about castle. She got fairly stung in the cheques this year.

My friend would know LOADS. She joined and the uplines entire team were welsh. She was always expected to drive to Cardiff or Swansea for trainings.

I think she did it three times before she told them to piss off. She only lives in Wiltshire but they weren't even worth going.

Each time it was circles on a board, watching blood suckers training and then photos of everyone drinking Prosecco to go on Facebook before driving the 2 hours home.

Apparently the Cardiff based one is still in FL but uses her husbands roofing business money to parade her successful lifestyle.

There must be many a victim of the Castle clan!

Form an orderly queue please Welsh bots!!

There's the welsh couple who were good friends with Uber.. they're now book coaching (get you to #1 best seller in obscure category) and being a beast in business (righhhht)

If the way Rarebot deals with tradespeople is anything to go by, she probably has quite a few disgruntled ex-downlines.

I’ll need to remind myself of who some of these FLP Welsh bots are but thank you all for the input.

Did anyone see the last edition of the Sunday Times Style section?. Massive great article about Cabi which is MLM. Written by an experienced journalist who I would have hoped would have known better.

Really want to ask Broke what exactly Gluccostiroids are....... apparently his snake oil helps anxiety/extreme stress by regulating their release 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️
