I couldn't watch the whole thing, it was too boring, but I did hear her say 'we make our own reality'. In your head you may do this, but the rest of the world isn't going to believe it. Goodness knows Donald Trump has tried it often enough but nobody's fooled.

Why don't they learn? I fully understand that you may get taken in by the first one, but to do it again and again and again, is rather insane.

Einstein is alleged to have defined insanity as “... doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”

When you add the wisdom of Lanzabot: “It’s a monkey-see-monkey-do business” to the aforementioned insanity all we’re left with is a bunch of lunatics who are too busy going around in circles and copying each other to notice they’ve been had.

This sums up MLM nicely!

Broke has gone quiet and no donations for 3 days...

StrongTeaDropOfMilkNoSugar · 22/10/2019 20:31

Arbonne’s accounts are now more than 3 weeks overdue according to Companies House. If they’re a totally legit, ethical global business, why would this be I wonder?

Is PHD teaming up with the bikinipreneur ?

DownThePan · 22/10/2019 22:01

Broke did a Travel MLM. Is it the same one as PhD and Bikinipreneur?!

acatcalledjohn · 22/10/2019 22:18

Castle jumping on the breast cancer awareness bandwagon with the FL deodorant.

Get fucked.

Just donate money, stop propping up your CCs by selling unproven & overpriced shite.

spanfan · 22/10/2019 22:42

PhD is even more full of shit than usual.

And skimming work restrictions I think. No FL people can talk to her. And she can only talk to Oz people with UK address. (Work permit?)

And all of the benefits just seemed to money off holidays... No actual income.

And each her 12 minions will make 1k minimum. Yeah ok then. 😭😭😭

She's a lowlife. Definitely using her intelligence to scam vulnerable people. Bitch

Spongebobette · 23/10/2019 08:18

Lol I just learned a new phrase

‘Hubsidised business’.

The travel MLM's, like all MLM's, are saturated. She has no chance of making any money at all.

dickiedavisthunderthighs · 23/10/2019 10:34

The travel MLMs are pure pyramids. It won't be long before this comes crashing down.

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 23/10/2019 10:38

I love "hubsidised business" Grin

So many bots are secretly "hubsidised"

FranceTeam · 23/10/2019 10:41

I think it’s quite rare to use the toilet in a dream

fromdownwest · 23/10/2019 11:13

I also like the term 'One More Build in me'

I.E one more roll of the dice to lure women into a MLM scheme where statistically you are very very likely to lose money under the guise of empowering women, whilst simultaneously taking four figure sums off women to 'help' them with their own MLM journey.

How on earth she sleeps at night is beyond me, it is truly abhorrent behavior.

Spongebobette · 23/10/2019 11:14

Omg the TS life bloke posted about not vaccinating kids and the thread is full of anti vaxxers bleating on about vaccinations and autism and how you can get over measles
Makes me furious
This generation has no idea how awful measles can be

Tupperwarelid · 23/10/2019 11:29

Oh god why did I go and look at that post? One of my son's is autistic, both had all their injections, go figure that one out you anti-vaxxers. I'm having to sit on my hands to stop me wading in...

Whiterangey · 23/10/2019 12:01

There has been more studies done regarding the MMR and Autism than any other substance we give to children. There is no link.

My Son has Autism, he was born that way. I give mine whatever is going, would love to have the money to give them the meningitis vaccine as well, but sadly, I don't.

Anti-vaxxers are stupid and reckless.

Spongebobette · 23/10/2019 12:05

It is deliberate ignorance

They are putting their own, and other children, at risk.

Spongebobette · 23/10/2019 12:22

I have waded in from my burner account

Twentytwentyhindsight · 23/10/2019 13:28

Well done sponge, although I fear you are screaming into a void (of rational thinking).

My botted ex refused to have the kids vaccinated, despite the wealth of well-presented evidence I gathered for her. She would always refer to that fraud Wakefield's study as scientific evidence, until he was exposed. At that point, the defence changed to "my gut feeling as an uninformed lay person is as valid as cumulative years of research by highly trained specialists".

One of the greatest pleasures I have had since she left was completing my sons' catch up courses of vaccinations last week.

I had always, out of respect, avoided having the argument or disparaging her views in front of the boys and had never had a conversation about it with them, so I was a bit worried about what they'd say when I told them I wanted to take them for their shots... the 15 year-old told me "I've been reading up on it and I was going to ask for them myself when I turned 16, as it becomes my choice". The 11year-old asked "is Mum being an anti-vaxxer connected with the aloe stuff?". And there I was, worried about the effect on them of spending so much time on the internet! Definitely a proud Dad moment.

@BSintolerant I used exactly that quote about the definition of madness when I told my ex that, after 8 years of her throwing good money after bad at FLP and 'mindset', I could no longer take it.

Spongebobette · 23/10/2019 13:29

Grrrrrr I am cross, he’s still pushing the conspiracy theory and others are going on about ‘big pharma’ and bringing all sorts of other shit into the argument.

Spongebobette · 23/10/2019 13:32

Oh and now he’s blocked me

Spongebobette · 23/10/2019 13:36

I’ve had a look on my ‘real’ account and he’s responded to my latest reply but blocked me so I can’t reply to it! So it looks to his followers as though I have given up!
Bastard
