Botwatch 89!!!!!! MLM is dying but we are still watching and sadly there are still many victims. 99.6% of participants in these “legal” schemes lose money but they are STILL being promised the world by MLM.

I don't get what she's done either?

There is a private actual online coaching group you pay for, but she has “accidentally “ invited everyone onto a free closed Facebook chat group where, presumably, there will be a series of tantalising posts to encourage people to join up. It will facilitate direct messaging and a “see what you’re missing” style marketing approach. Castle did the same with her ever evolving business venture You can join the free group just so you can see what you’re missing.

It reminds me of the social hierarchy at school . You can be popular like me but you have to pay for the privilege, you can come and watch the popular group but you can’t join in and you won’t understand the in jokes. Most of MLM seems to run along these lines.

It’s all so muddled and confusing

If they are all paying (doubtful) that’s about 1k a month
not quite 6 figures is it

I agree with your post @Angrymum22, but I doubt Yawn will become bored with coaching as any clients she ropes in are likely to be a figment of her imagination.

Spongebobette · 30/08/2025 08:45

I think the free calls she offers are the best she can do and she really enjoys telling the poor listener all about how amazing she is and how lucky they are to have her attention

The free private group is a wizard wheeze to lure people in and give them the hard sell

What do they actually get for that? Not much other than lining Yawn's pockets...

Remember that there are now 5 co founders involved in this thinly veiled scam. So that 1k a month is split 4 or 5 ways.

@Angrymum22 it’s an absolute joke isn’t it?! Yawn is hoping to prop up her coaching pretend business by attaching herself to Techie with her slightly more concrete skills, one branding photographer who may have taken the Lavatorial Ladies in Lavender photo and two former legal secretaries who Yawn thinks are high-powered lawyers. Yawn’s is the most tenuous element of the whole thing and she knows it but I think she has spotted in techie a weak spot which is Techie’s own need to sort her own finances out and previous form falling for MLM.

The photographer seems to be in the background, the legal eagles seem to be keeping quiet and Techie is doing what she’s told just like the good old days in FLP. She’s doing all the donkey work while Yawn enjoys the pre-launch phase before she has to deliver. Techie has some financial problems thanks largely to Forever so I wonder how long it’s going to take her to realise that a fifth of zero profits isn’t worth the effort. Or worse, that her website money is now diverted into silly promotions and distractions and Yawn expects a share of it. I bet Yawn is selling her a load of discounted product too.

Shall we place bets on when BuildaDebt will be over? Early November? I mean, I know it’s over before it’s begun but what kind of date will it be when it’s obvious it’s fallen apart and they’ve all fallen out?

First name is female UK singer Goulding surname is the name of a company offering a Range of industrial gearboxes suitable for the food and beverage industry.

Sexy Bum doesn't list the gofund me on her page it is visible via google with the search Help a good dad see his kids again. "Sexybum" is organizing this fundraiser on behalf of "Broke" (insert the correct names).

Both Broke & sexybum resurrected their FB accounts in June with Marty stating BACK ON THE BOOK.. BUSINESS REASONS!. and then nothing since :)

Broke had a fair bit of time at HMP last year so I expect that’s a factor. Him and his ex had their first child taken into care so if she’s now creating a stable home for the others then all power to her. That GFM seems to have been taken down.

I think he had children from a previous relationship who he never sees

very sad

yes sadly twins from a previous relationship (probably adults now) another child taken into care and then (with the same partner) children whom he obviously can't see hence the GFM. My Sympathies are with his children and ex partners, he's just an absolute pillock.

Spongebobette · 31/08/2025 17:41

@dickiedavisthunderthighs how did you know he was in prison?

He had a couple of TikTok accounts he used when he came out, talking about how he was a reformed character. I can’t find them now so not sure how reformed he still is!!

YouOKHun · 31/08/2025 18:34

As for Broke, I am still puzzling over the “industrial gearboxes suitable for the food and beverage industry” clue. Is there another clue for the hard of thinking?!

It’s Broke’s trail of children and ex-partners left to deal with everything I feel sorry for. He always seemed to be very good at blaming everyone else for his ongoing problems. I did have one exchange with him long ago where he was raging about the injustice and trickery he had experienced as a result of his association with Messiah. He obviously had see Messiah as the Messiah so was extra angry about being ripped off by him (possibly Vida Divina or TSL, can’t remember). Messiah is a sharper lowlife than Broke.

if you google industrial gearboxes suitable for the food and beverage industry
the first hit will hopefully be a company beginning with with Y this is sexybums surname.

He has a couple of TT accounts, one is King M*y

his (ex?) Gf sexybum seems to be permanently outraged with social services - they are ‘rats’ according to her

oh dear what a pair. Sexybum has been in prison too then and lost access to her children. I don't think it's Social Services who are the rats. Both of them have made very poor choices which impact their children significantly. Neither seem to take responsibility and broke was recalled already.

YouOKHun · 31/08/2025 21:08

Thanks @user1471446301 for the clue. I needed the first letter because what I came up with was an even more unlikely last name.

i see Yawn is breaking one the cardinal rules for advertisers - fake price reduction. £25 - normally £44. If a few people were to report her to the ASA for that alone she might end up with a slapped wrist. It’s never been £44. None of her prices reflect a deal or a price reduction though they do reflect piss poor value for money.

PieonaBarm · 31/08/2025 21:43

Broke is back in prison, if you find sexybum on YouTube he was recalled in June. She is also on licence for something that happened in Warrington. I wonder if whatever it was they did it together

Verygoodatforgetting · 31/08/2025 22:09

I see Yawn has posted some footage of the BuildABear Inner Arsehole “app”. Slick work from Techie, but I’ve still spotted a doozie of a typo in the first 5 seconds. Someone really can’t be arsed with actually proofreading their work.

YouOKHun · 31/08/2025 23:07

@Verygoodatforgetting was that ‘so you can talk directly to Techie and I’? Nothing sends creates a credibility bypass like basic spelling and grammar errors (caveat: fat fingered hasty antiMLM posters not included in the grammar/spelling judgement - I know I should take up more regular use of the full stop).

Verygoodatforgetting · 31/08/2025 23:17

Hah- no, hadn’t spotted the grammar slip up. It says “welcome to the Inner Circler”. So she can’t even spell the name of the whole shitty concept.
