MLM Bot Watch 60: It takes a village to sink an island.

Continued chat exposing things such as the lies peddled and the bankruptcies hidden from view.

For those interested, the Lifetime channel is airing a documentary series called Cults & Extreme Belief. I have seen two episodes so far (FLDS, aired yesterday, and Twelve Tribes, aired last week). This coming Sunday is the first part of The Survivors Speak. So far it has been very interesting to see the similarities to MLM brainwashing. The way that active FLDS members still view Warren Jeffs as a prophet rather than a paedophile is remarkably similar to how Young Living customers view their late leader Gary Young.

In other news: I'm thinking about starting a tinfoil MLM as there seems to be a rather strong market amongst huns.

Has Yawn bought Mr Yawn a stepladder to take all those photos from above?

Norma27 · 29/05/2020 10:03

Ha ha @downthepan
I think she has. I wonder why she prefers the camera angle from above?
Broke really is a tool.

I'm sorry if someone has already seen it and shared it, but I just watched the Chairman 's bonus FLP rally 2020 on YouTube. The top cheques start at $90K and Uber is nowhere to be seen. The only Brits to have received anything is the man on $200k and Bloodsucker on $600k. I suspect Uber had a shocker.

But she still feels she is worthy to drive a 3 hour round trip to view an investment cottage, clearly essential travel.

Wowing her foolish minions with pictures of her investment property.

watnochequeagain · 29/05/2020 12:19

Probably a good distraction to point others away from looking closely at a non existent cheque by looking at investment properties. It still creates the illusion that all is well and cash is king!
Slowly and surely, even despite the flurry of activity - sales are still down across the board with MLM's.
Those with money are choosing to keep it safe - those that are signing up, are either romanticising of a life of extreme wealth (big wake up call to follow) or desperate in the hope that some quick easy cash will land on their doorstep. It is still a mop up exercise anyway.

Like the politicians are now being caught out and brought to task - by popular opinion, gurus, mastermind classes and MLM's will be asked to explain how exactly the money is made and what the true prospects of success look like!

RelativePitch · 29/05/2020 12:24

Having watched all the cheques from this year's 2020 rally I can concur that Uber got NO CHEQUE. I watched them from $4K right up to the top cheque of over a million and Uber's cheque was so mysterious, it was a mystery to FLP too. What a gross miscalculation!

watnochequeagain · 29/05/2020 12:33

The annual prize giving is the ultimate highlight for most MLM's, it's the biggest carrot they have to entice the baying crowd to get out there and recruit more. I would find it strange that a top earner would not want to share the level of their business - even as an incentive to keep the downline seduced?
Proves what a crock of shit it really is - Even those at the top are not safe from losing it all. Smoke and mirrors, deceptive practices, fake friendships, boss babe memes amount to zero when you look at your bank account and the cash simply is not there!

CompleteBarstool · 29/05/2020 12:41

Has there been anything official from FLP themselves about Uber's cheque?

Eg. Some sort of acknowledgement when they were dishing out the rest that she is being given a cheque but has opted to keep the amount to herself??

RelativePitch · 29/05/2020 12:43

Funnily enough no!

watnochequeagain · 29/05/2020 12:47

There will have to be an internal cover-up of sorts. It is possible that she did get a cheque but something to the size of the yoga mat ones. If it was that embarrassing, that would explain the Chiefs still congratulating her for receiving something rather than nothing - quick spin on it - and now it's only being shared by family and close friends! - cue the laughter!
Otherwise the bosses are also in on the ruse - and that would mean a more sinister angle on the whole affair?

Whiterangey · 29/05/2020 13:00

She didn't get one. Likely miscalculated one of the qualifying things, likely the new business aspect of qualifying.

Is not going to admit to not getting a cheque so lied.

I know it's a huge accusation according a bot of lying as they are known for their truthfulness, but I think she's a lying liar who lies.

Her excuse was she didn't want to show off when so many are out of work due to coronavirus, yet was happy to tell everyone they can be rich like her if they join her team while furloughed.

Something smells, and it doesn't smell like the truth.

fromdownwest · 29/05/2020 13:08

I like to not show off to my colleagues by purchasing an investment property with a sea view in a seaside town and sharing it with all. Nothing says low key more than that.

That woman is too much of a narcissist to not show off her cheque.

9dartfinish2nd · 29/05/2020 13:09

I echo the above comment, I recall a senior figure in FLP congratulating her on the achievement, so if it turns out she didn't get one then it strays into an area that leaves them wide open to serious difficulties ahead.
I personally don't think they would be that stupid and I believe she did get a cheque albeit a heavily reduced one.

The only person in FLP UK bringing in life changing money is Bloodsucker and that's only because she saw the demise of the UK market and diversified abroad.

A handful of others are making enough to cover a basic j.o.b salary with directors loans casting a shadow over some of them.

RelativePitch · 29/05/2020 13:19

But if that were an option, to keep your cheque secret, why didn't Castle do it? Or others who have seen their cheques massively drop? It is weird the Vice President of Europe congratulated her. Did he just assume she would have got something? It doesn't put him in massive hot water. Which cheque? He doesn't say congratulations on your 2020 cheque. It would be easy to wriggle out of, he could have been referring to another year!

fromdownwest · 29/05/2020 13:26

Castle is nothing in FL anymore, she has lost the glamour aspect, and also lost the giant team she had. She has no clout in FL anymore.

I imagine UBER does have a bit of a reputation left.

watnochequeagain · 29/05/2020 13:41

The others would show their cheques of to prove that they are still somewhat part of the elite club that would receive one globally. That in itself carries a certain amount of fizz! - maybe they all presumed that Uber would get one as she is leader and commander of their tribe?
Remember Yawn - kept super quiet about hers - even going to the countries to take part in the celebrations - it wasn't until the end did it dawn on the rest of the world she was picking up zilch!

Uber may have played the same script - knowing her cheque was significantly lower or none at all?
It's hard to be "that" humble when you are so gracious as an Uber!
Especially when you got a reputation to uphold - Bloodsucker and Mantronic bot have interests outside of the UK so they don't need to rely on UK failure of sales to explain their performance.

Norma27 · 29/05/2020 14:00

Uber's sister was also congratulated on her cheque by the same flp leader. Very much doubt she received one.

BSintolerant · 29/05/2020 14:04

Has Yawn bought Mr Yawn a stepladder to take all those photos from above?
Grin @DownThePan

I’ve said it before, the angle of those photos make her look like she’s suffering from furniture disease. Her chest has collapsed into her drawers. Wink

I’m here all week.

Uber's DH may merged his assets into hers - even if to prop dwindling funds - as a buffer for no cheque - a remortgage gives cash to continue the lying lies - investment properties only work if fully rented and you don't get hob dancing clients...

CompleteBarstool · 29/05/2020 15:37

Re: Uber's property....I posted this when it happened but basically I found myself seated next to her at "an event" (being vague so as not to out myself) when she was telling someone about the properties. The flat is being renovated as a student let and the "holiday home" (which she implies will be for family use) will also be let out as a holiday let , so a source of income rather than a "spare" home to pop to whenever they fancy it.

SSDGM · 29/05/2020 15:41

So Yawn says her new recruit needs to pay her son’s uni fees after her family’s 6 figure income, (she intends to completely replace it slinging aloe)

However - Yawn’s new recruit’s eldest son only started secondary school 3 years ago. Surely if you have a financial emergency like this saving for something happening in 3 or more years time isn’t really a priority?

SSDGM · 29/05/2020 15:41

*losing their 6 figure income

Bluewavescrashing · 29/05/2020 18:24

Bruv has earned his car plan as has Castle's BFF.

Could she be funnelling products through them?
