Very quiet indeed, unlike her to not be soaking up the adoration of all her fans and minions.

Also, if you are going to rinse people for £39 a month, at least have the self respect to proof read your inane drivel.

'You’re year could still end absolutely spectacular.' - Just shows complete lack of consideration.

Also the syntax, is truly awful. Random short sentances, no comma's etc. Just screams absolute amatuer hour.

Ohnonevermind · 09/08/2022 10:14

they must think their minions are stupid so don’t need to bother proof reading

Twentytwentyhindsight · 09/08/2022 10:35

I'm sure Emeritus Professor Castle, Dean of the Ponzi Faculty of Pyramid Schemes at Scamversity, has only gone quiet on social media because she is assiduously gathering and preparing the groundbreaking materials for her course modules.

BSintolerant · 09/08/2022 12:41

They must be busy buying another sleeve.

fromdownwest · 09/08/2022 12:52

What is PHD's new angle? Is she geniunely providing information on how and where to invest?

Nothing screams financial information than a selfie drinking out of a pineapple stating that she blew 70k on rubbish, because she didn't know 'normal' people could invest.

She is walking a fine line here, even anything percieved to be advice could put her in very hot water!

Twentytwentyhindsight · 09/08/2022 13:15

PhD spouting drivel as usual.
Interesting that her FLP bonus cheque for $70k (a bit over £50k at the time) is described as 'life changing', seeing as she was claiming to have a 'multiple six figure income'...
But then again, you can't invest when you have to spend every penny on conspicuous consumption to attract more victims into your pyramid scheme.

TheHorseOnSeventhAvenue · 09/08/2022 18:33

Not posted here Forever 🤣

PHD still pisses me off most. She has education and if she knuckled down could have a great career and vocation.

Didnt she boast of multiple 6 figure years? Now she admits she has 5 figures in investments and savings. Would you take financial advice from her?

Recent posts seem to be from a rather sad, generic rented flat and she admits she has no assets.

She also adds full stops to the words mon.ey, investm.ent, finan.cial etc to escape the logarithms.

There was a post where she basically admitted what she was doing was illegal as she has no qualifications as a financial advisor.

She’s an out and out liar and scam artist!

Anyway - hope you are all well and keep up the good fight!

Spongebobette · 09/08/2022 18:42

The disclaimer at the foot of her webpage completely contradicts everything above it -
madness

Twentytwentyhindsight · 09/08/2022 18:51

I do believe that of all the bots and ex-bots that get talked about here, she is probably the most deluded.
She clearly comes from a well-to-do background and will probably not want for anything, but she is obsessed about money for the sake of it. She comes across as spoilt, vacuous, arrogant and, at the same time, profoundly deluded and very very lonely.
I used to feel the same way about her as @TheHorseOnSeventhAvenue but she really isn't worth it. Just a spoilt brat desperately screaming for attention while the World goes about its business.

YouOKHun · 09/08/2022 19:07

@fromdownwest yes, I agree, PhD seems to be walking a fine line: she appears to be offering the usual MLM style drivel on FB and her YouTube interspersed with what could be classed as “guidance” (she mainly makes statements of the bleedin’ obvious) but general pointers are OK with the FCA I understand. Though while she’s giving “guidance” she’s clearly misrepresenting her success and financial acumen.

However her Insta has a few stories which drift more towards financial “advice” and I’d love to know what unregulated advice she’s dishing out in her closed [investment] groups. She’s clearly had her knuckles rapped recently by “haterz” (FB post April implies this). I know nothing about finance but I’m hoping someone who does can get the inside track on what she is giving as “fin.ancial ad.vice” in her groups.

fromdownwest · 09/08/2022 19:40

This is my area, and even if providing guidance, or even acting as a referral agent, one needs the proper FCA regulations and permissions in place.
This will include liability insurance.

Any mention of a capital at risk investment has standard risk warnings associated with it.
A DIY disclaimer will not cut it with the FCA, they clamp down very hard on unregulated financial advice, even if the person issuing it does not see it as advice.

If she has ignored a previous warning, then you are into a different level of consequences.

ignoring the fact she does not know the difference between passive income and capital growth, a lot of her ‘info’ is US based. Probably lifted from somewhere.

Why give advice in the UK and use S&P as a point of reference?

Of all the bots, she appears to be the most self centred one. She openly admitted everyone on her course didn’t like her, as she was so successful.

YouOKHun · 09/08/2022 19:41

Agree @Twentytwentyhindsight she does seem deluded and rather sad. She appears to be an example of what happens to people who are handed everything on a plate; they develop no frustration tolerance to difficulty and expect the world to deliver without any real graft on their part. Ultimately they lose. Castle’s in the same bracket.

She clearly has had resources in her life and isn’t daft in the academic sense so what a waste - she could be doing something much more worthwhile and satisfying with her time on the planet instead of going from one scam to another and kidding herself that she’s doing something worthwhile.

Castles latest gift to her minions. Reading her school report live.

yup, I’m not joking.

She is going to read her old school report live and you won’t believe what the teachers said.

It is so funny it’s sad

dickiedavisthunderthighs · 09/08/2022 20:56

That is TRAGIC. She's run out of all material.

Spongebobette · 09/08/2022 21:02

She’s running out of material isn’t she - using her kids and house isn’t cutting it any more

This is before we have even begun uni.

it’s all free stuff as well, if I’d paid £39, I’d be so what for?

Twentytwentyhindsight · 09/08/2022 21:30

Someone suggested a few posts ago that Yawn' 'salad post' signalled that the bottom of the barrel was being scraped.
Castle's spoon has well and truly gone through and is now collecting scrapings from the floor. We'll be down to the subsoil by the time paid term time starts.

I struggle to see how much lower Castle can go with content.

Clearly does nothing of any interest.

SnoogyWoo · 09/08/2022 22:19

She will be wiping her arse and showing us what’s on the toilet paper next. Will be more useful I suspect.

YouOKHun · 09/08/2022 22:29

Don’t worry Huns! Yawn is turning round the bad reputation of network marketing single handedly! Phew!

”There’s such a bad reputation around network marketing because some bad apples tried to spoil the cart.

Some people are pushy, some are greedy, some are lazy & some are shady. But that happens in all industries. I am on a one woman mission to change the image of network marketing - it is a truly life changing and inspiring business, building peoples confidence & skills.

This [that I’m no.2 in the rankings in my region] is testament to my mission - it’s working … I’m changing the way people see it … I’m off to help more people learn about my amazing opportunity today”.

Yawn’s certainly not alone when it comes to mangling the English language. Some bad apples tried to spoil the cart?! I wonder if she’s having a dig at Proessors C&F who are flogging a dead course? 😉

Anyone else having flashbacks to Monty Python’s Life of Brian? “I’m no.2 in the wankings in my wegion.”

One of Castle’s presentations next week is “what to do when you don’t have an audience”. The irony…

  1. Read an old school report
  2. Pick a new hobby for 2 days and document it
  3. Seek validation from random people on the internet
  4. Jump from one project to another and apply yourself to nothing for long
