Maybe she means working her bizniz from home.

Can she be doing nursing appointments via zoom? Seems unlikely.

My friend is a CPN and hasn't done a single in-person visit since April last year. All appointments are via video now and probably will continue to be.

2 days ago and the Forever Bots are showing how original they are.
Uber "Please tell me I'm not the only one who hasn't started Christmas shopping yet"
Yawn "Please tell me I'm not the only one who hasn't started Christmas shopping yet"
Yawn's BFF "14 weeks until Christmas. Please tell me I'm not the only one not started yet"
Surely their followers must notice this?
🙄🙄🙄

Why is it many MLM founders are linked to the Mormon Church ?

PieonaBarm · 22/09/2021 22:17

Wig has been banned from WhatsApp. WTH has she been sharing to manage that??

YouokHun · 22/09/2021 22:43

One of the ways to get banned from WhatsApp is to create too many groups containing people who don’t have your number in their address books or if you message too many people who don’t have your number in their address book. So Wig has probably been obtaining numbers and spamming people. Can she lift phone numbers from FB messenger perhaps?

PieonaBarm · 23/09/2021 00:46

I've read the comments. She was banned from FB so was "sharing the truth" on WhatsApp.....

Something about keeping the 'little ladies' at home and occupied lest they break free of their shackles. Also MLMs are based around cult/religion type behaviours. Shun those who leave, untouchable saviour type male figurehead, secrets of success, ready made 'family' of supporters etc
Mycatismadeofstringcheese · 23/09/2021 15:02

Plus all that door knocking has to toughen you up for repeated rejection. Remember “a no just means “not right now”.”

Good article in The Guardian, meanwhile over at The Scotsman they have committed another lazy cut and paste offence. The woman pictured is a downline of Yawn I think. www.scotsman.com/business/meet-the-scottish-women-who-found-happiness-with-forever-living-3389111

So if you promote Castle’s new planners you can become an affiliate and earn cash. Starting her own upside down funnel scheme.

I don't think I've read such a load of old drivel in a long time.

The fact it was promoted by FL means its nothing more than a big bloody advert to try and drag more unsuspecting souls into this parasitic business.

spanfan · 23/09/2021 22:43

OT: Coco has completely gone crazy. Sleaze is gutless and just videos behind a Bush. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

JaniceBattersby · 23/09/2021 23:29

The piece in the Scotsman is a paid-for advert, which unfortunately I don’t think is made clear enough. They did a similar once last year.

BSintolerant · 24/09/2021 00:42

I always think things are getting desperate when advertorials are wheeled out. How much would one of those cost these days?

Coco setting up home on a ledge at Oxford University is keeping me very amused. Meanwhile Wig is bemoaning the fact that her and Sleaze aren't on an all expenses paid jolly in Dubai run by the Crypto Scam leaders because she doesn't want to get on a plane with people who have had the vaccine. At least I think that's what she means - her posts that aren't straight copy and paste from motivation websites are shocking. You can see where Mini Wig gets her intelligence from.

Can someone who has seen sleazes video let me know why coco is scaling the outside of a building in oxford. I am loathe to give them views

A clear and blatant advertorial and sadly they seem to have previous for this, perhaps in this era of declining sales they are less picky as to whom they accept advertising revenue from.

9dartfinish2nd · 24/09/2021 12:41

Nu Skin had a get together last weekend in MIlton Keynes, their first in the UK in 18 months.

They also apparently held an awards ceremony too, got me wondering what some of the category's could have been..

Biggest director's loan to a Ltd company award,
Best Facebook live "Your why makes you cry" performance,
Most credit card debt racked up whilst being a product of the product award.

Any others?

YouokHun · 24/09/2021 17:08

Agree with all of you re the Scotsman. Does FLP think that it can get around some ASA rules by styling their advert as an article? I see none of the disclaimers I’d expect for an advertisement which makes income claims that aren’t substantiated. Have I missed something?.

I know it’s says it’s an advert but I think that isn’t as clear as it should be given that most people haven’t got the MLM radar we all have. I know I’ve frequently read an article that turns out to be a stealth advertisement for something (non MLM) but I’ve already taken in the contents by the time I realise.

I wonder if the fact FLP are paying handsomely for space in The Scotsman means they may also have some influence about whether any anti MLM content ever appears in the Scotsman?

fromdownwest · 24/09/2021 17:22

I wonder if it is an actual advert, that they may be bound by ASA rules and regulations. You know a real regulator, not like they are used to. If misleading, then maybe if the ASA are notified then the can request the advert be corrected?

To save the children from Chris Whitty 🤷‍♀️ It has something to do with hydroxychloroquine as well but there's only so many times I can stomach Sleaze saying "hey guys"...
YouokHun · 24/09/2021 19:00

Wig says that she and Sleaze should be on an all expenses qualifier event in Dubai (yeah OK), but have decided not to go because 1) they can’t risk their health by travelling with all the vaccinated people who will taint their pure unvaccinated selves. And 2) they must stay and save the children from Mr Whitty and his giant child catcher needle (as already mention).

I wonder if the real problem is that the Camden bedsit has used up all the scammed cash and it’s going to be tricky to afford the tube ticket to Heathrow let alone the flight and hotel? And the ego massage of getting an anonymous mention in a tabloid is greater than sleeping in Dubai airport and taking photos of designer bags in the airport shop? They really are idiots.

I see Uber is raving about FL's new liquid collagen which she was lucky enough to trial -it's supposed to give you firmer, improved skin.

This is the same Uber who has posted about having two skin/complexion improving procedures this month.

Clearly the FL product wasn't that great then 🙄
