- The blight of MLM's have reached into many communities destroying families and personal finance. For the last two episodes I talked about the Sister Wives Closet as an MLM. This week I want to explore the world of Network marketing and how it effects the Browns and people like them within their community.
Let's have the conversation.

Hey James, can you talk about Meri claiming to be a life coach? It’s just crazy how so many unqualified people claim to be life coaches. When Meri was doing her Instagram live, and somebone asked her what “ worthy up”means her slogan she couldn’t even give a good answer. She doesn’t even know.!
someone who was being ghosted by their husband for years and years shouldnt have a slogan like "worthy up". embarrassing!!
Did she say she was going to be a life coach? Curious.
I always thought she was using all that to lift herself up and for others, too.
I did all that during a bad time and turned it around.
But I wouldn’t have called myself a “life coach.”
Meri...life coach😅😅😅
Jannelle too! Yuck
Years ago I worked as a stripper. This guy would come around and give a spiel about this 'Money Game' and his line was always 'You know So & So who works here on the weekends? She's made A LOT of $$$ playing. You can too!' I laughed so hard at this fool. He was thinking just because we were dancing we must be idiots and had the cash to get involved in this foolishness. I might have been making a living shaking what my Mama gave me, But my Mama didn't raise no fools!
I used to be in the same line of work. I went back to school & now I'm a hospice nurse. Only in America! Lol! It's crazy how many dudes thought they could play me back then. Like we were born yesterday because we're dancers 😂 The only good that came from that time in my life is the ability to detect liars, users & con artists
So weird they thought they could recruit you. MLMs usually target people who are struggling financially. My understanding is dancers make great money.
This is just to say I don't know whether I'm more impressed that you put up with him pitching up regularly to try and indoctrinate you (and I'm guessing you kept your cool) or the physical endurance it takes to dance for hours on end (with or without a pole). And I promise I'm not being sarcastic here - I'm more body insecure than I'd like to admit and couldn't even imagine doing exotic dancing alone in a pitch black room. So, all that to say I genuinely envy (and admire) your confidence! And I'm also genuinely sorry if this comes across poorly and offends you in any way - it's not my intention!
That car was like when Mary Kay use to let the high sellers drive the pink cars, same thing. They were theirs to use not own.
Money can’t buy happiness, but it does buy comfort and can buy security.
If you are secure and comfortable, with a decent place to live, an adequate emergency fund, medical insurance, and a functional vehicle, it’s a lot easier to go out and pursue happiness.
Yup 👍
Kody never liked Meri cause she was always honest, and she called Kody out on his dishonesty!
I would bet Janelle and Christine and Mykelti are using ozempic, which hey do your thing, no shame in that, but to claim its the product alone they sell that helped them lose so much weight isn't fair to their downline or ppl they sell to. Like you said James it's most likely not the product alone helping aide so very much weight loss.
Scamers gonna scam. Not being belittling. It's just something they've done for yrs, in various ways, & bad habits are hard to break. None of them are totally reprogrammed yet.
@@vblackwell3347 It do what it Do!
I honestly think it’s Ozempic that Mykelti is using. To each their own. It is a slippery slope. When you are praising a different product. That may not have played a big part. In how you got your results.
What even is a “life coach” who would take advice from someone who not only picked Kody as a husband but then had to share him with 3 other wives. I mean in what universe does a man like Kody convince 4 different women to marry him. 😂
🤣women who have been indoctrinated
I doubt Robin ever worked anything outside of Cody.
Mykelti may well be using that exercise equipment but she's also using that ozempic. Her face and Tony's too have that look.
Oh my gosh, I just said something very similar. The rate in which she lost her weight made me think the same thing.
@@colleen1219Cause they were "Huge"....
This reminds me of that product "Thrive", that Shannon Watt's was Selling! She was given a Lexus, and went on Cruises...
2 hrs before we get a story time!! I come for your stories and to hear you sing!
Jennell has the body of a fitness model..listen to her...meri is a relationship guru😅😅😅😅😅
I just can't see Kooty trying to be professional and standing on a stage giving a presentation of any k8bd. His emotions get in the way. He comes off asa dictator to boot.
The richest man in the state of Idaho started a MLM. He is Frank Vandersloot.
But Kody isn't
Your point? Serious question.
That’s so true James. I fell for the Keto fat burning products. The ad claimed that you could mix it in a little bit of water and drink it once a day and it would break down your body fat with no exercise or diet restrictions. I got bottles of capsules with dry stuff in them and it said to take it three times a day. It was basically a supplement not a fat burning product. They ripped me off big time. It should be faults advertising. The ad showed Shark Tank and Dr. Oz. Now I see apple cider gummies with Oprah. It’s all bull.
It sure is!! Bought the same thing I’m sure. What a colossal rip off. These ads are sprinkled in all these youtube videos…can’t believe I was scammed again. I’m so dumb.
REMEMBER. when something sounds too good too be true - it is. Also, if it's too easy, too fast, too expensive, too magical - it IS,too.
Eating a16 oz ribeye will do the same thing, and is much more enjoyable!
I can't stay up and watch the live so here I am. I couldn't wait to watch your taje when I saw the title of this.
James you da man! I’m the youngest of 5 my mother has always been a part of these types of things since I was 5yrs old (amway ,melaleuca natures sunshine ) and they never got anywhere but a bunch of products cluttering up our pantry and counters. My mother has been gone will be for 4 yrs this 2/29. I just wanted to say how I truly enjoy your opinions and ideas and I literally learn g a lot so thank you so much ☺️.
We had a Shelby Cobra luxury vehicle and the insurance is very high on these super fast cars. Also, my husband had to go to the racetrack and get lessons on how to drive it safely.
Thanks!
Didn't Gwen even ssy, you shouldn't get into an MLM unless you have a TV show?
I'm fortunate enough never to have been in the position of being in desperate need of money because, even at the age of 33, I know I can ask my parents for help (they have more money than God but do expect us to be functional adults). And I own that privilege and try to pay their kindness forward - I like to think it's why I chose a career in the NGO space working in financial inclusion for the very vulnerable in many African countries. But I can sympathise with people that don't have those fall-backs and their friends/family have the gall to abuse their trust and rope them into MLMs. It's beyond disgusting and there's a special place in whatever version of hell that their faith believes in.
I wonder if anyone else has noticed the similarities between what Mari is into and the 8 passenger lady got into
I noticed that Janelle has never really lost much weight, even though she claims to use Plexus. 🤔🤔🤔🤔
My niece got snagged by Mary Kay. ugh
When I was 21, I got snagged by Tupperware. I only sold enough to cover the price of my kit. Then I quit.
@@seameology I would buy Tupperware, but not Mary Kay. It's crap
Stampin Up out of Utah was An MLM
I just recently started stamping. And I won't buy any of those brand new. But I've found plenty of them beand new in thrift stores. I pay 50 cents! Some of those are 5 to 10$!
Had forgotten about that one. Oh, those 2000s mom with their scrapbooks.
Hi James!
Hi James
Christine's mother's maiden name is LaBaron so...
WACB ade the point that, since Sister Wives is about polygamy, a controversial subject, many companies probably wouldn't want to be associated with SW. Therefore, they're limited to MLMs. It was just a guess on her part. But I think she has a point.
MLMs help a lot of families come up but SWC was not going to do that and Kody doesn't have the charisma to hold the stage the way MLM leaders can. Even if they got the money, it wouldn't have worked.
You should be able to trust your husband but unfortunately when you realize he’s a narcissist and only cares about himself you’re left feeling like an idiot for trusting him in the first place. Sorry Christine, Janelle and Meri.
Mary‘s new brand of self-worth is Mary‘s way of saying oh I woke up. I’m no longer this naïve person that believed in all this cold stuff and whatever Cody said did but the fact is she’s so naïve that she doesn’t realize that’s a very small bit of life that she has not experienced Now she may attract women who have been a narcissistic relationships but a lot of those have nothing because they were controlled so it’s way price for them now she may attract. Someone does have some money to spend. I just want to hang out with a bunch of women who can complain about the relationships, and maybe even talk with somebody who’s been on a reality show and she
I love the analyses you do and these conversations are so important to have, and I'll always watch and enjoy this content, but I don't think I can watch the actual Sister Wives show itself anymore. I find that I can't respect or like any of the wives/Kody anymore (not that that was ever a thing with Kody and Robin), because these are reasonably-educated people that have to be aware they're abusing the trust they've earned as public figures from (mostly) women desperate to provide for themeselves/families. Even Janelle and Christine (and the adult kids involved). I know they're not bad people and have had a raw deal in their marriages to Kody, but there's no way they believe in what they're shilling to innocent people. But that's just my (very sheltered) opinion and zero judgement aimed at anyone who still enjoys the show and like them. I know we're all far from perfect and my attitude is very black-and-white and basically zero grey area.
Timeshares in guyana available
a great discussion on MIMs but not a lot on the Brown finances
Not trying to sound mean, but if plexus really made you lose weight, Christine and Janelle have lost some weight by now?
The Kremlins were Kremling I see!😂😂😂

I can hear ya. Tbh I always gotta turn you way down. You have a powerful microphone. Lol
It could be because your live streams are extremely long. Too long. People don’t have 3-4 hours to participate. I personally will take 3-4 days to watch a whole live stream and it’s a shame because your segments provoke though whereas the live streams 70% of them could be cut and people wouldn’t miss the important stuff.
I listen to them in pieces or while I'm cooking etc.
I listen to them over the period of 3 days on my commute to and from work.
I tried to get into Monsters University, but only got accepted into Fear Tech. Then Monsters Inc. changed their energy producing to laughter, but obviously the scary part was way funner so i didnt end up going down that path. I went to plain boring standard NUI Galway....now im hearing Ronald McDonald has a university...im disappointed!
@rochelle j hi rochelle, missed the live. i hope ill catch it next time🥳. Have a lovely week💪🕊✌
