The FTC vs #Neora (ex Nerium) court ruling is finalized. The court case was over pyramid statute claims. The ruling appears to favor Neora on all counts.

It was a pleasure to attend the Direct Selling Association's Women’s Entrepreneurship Roundtable today in Davenport. We must continue to support and empower our female entrepreneurs! #IA01

Herbalife is a pyramid scheme that preyed on the hopes, dreams, and aspirations of mostly Black and Latino people. Unfortunately, @BillAckman and many others were vilified for their efforts to shut it down. I’m happy to see the company go down the toilet. Here is an interview I

It is a very good day for my psychological short on @Herbalife. And it is an even better day for the world to see one of the biggest pyramid schemes fail. That said, it is sad that so many with so little have been deceived and bankrupted by Herbalife. And it is incredibly

“As it turns out, your ego actually IS your worst enemy. The truth will prevail.” As posted by “National_Stomach_770” on Reddit

“Imagine months of actively betraying the very company, products and CEO (along with tens of thousand of people) who gave you the stage, platform and intellectual property on which you built your fortune. They trusted you.”

“Imagine betraying your closest friends over ego and money under the guise of protecting them. Imagine evaporating a decade of trust with just one short video.”

“And hundreds of people believed you and sent you messages of support. But they didn't know what really happened. Those involved couldn't talk about it and had to watch you look into the camera and lie like a career politician. But it was too late.”

“You even had soap opera music playing in the background for dramatic effect.”

“When you got caught and were fired with due cause, facing the complete destruction of your career and reputation, you casually played the victim and released a "poor me" video with a storyline, hook and call to action.“

“They couldn't believe their trusted friend and business partner of so many years would treat them like dollar signs and tamper with their futures like it was some kind of chess match.”

“They were confused. They were afraid. But they knew something wasn't right so they reluctantly turned you in.“

“They were shocked and stunned by your actions. They recorded your conversations and took screenshots of your pitch deck and your lies about the company and the CEO. They were hurt.”

“You build one lie on top of another lie so that no one seems to know what's true anymore. And after all your best efforts, the people you assumed would blindly follow you (aka God Complex) instead reported you. “

“In your haste to get them all under you, you get careless. You exaggerate. You embellish. You placate. You violate legal agreements. You break fiduciary laws. You undermine the futures of tens of thousands of those same people who helped get you where you are.“

“Imagine your ego being so big you can't fathom that one of your trusted co-workers would reach out to YOUR friends and co-workers. So you get to work and fast track your plan to steal everyone from your original company (that is still paying you millions of dollars a year). “

“Then another rep at the same company decides to start calling everybody behind your back telling them that THEY have a new, better business and product and everyone should join THEM (not you).”

“You commit conspiracy. You violate contracts, oaths and promises you made. You collude with a top corporate member to try to take down the CEO and the very company who incubated your success.”

“You tell them that they are all going to lose their jobs and their incomes unless they follow you to a new company you are starting.“

“Instead, you start holding private meetings spreading rumors and saying false things about the CEO and the company. You start reaching out individually to all the top sales people making everyone worried sick for their futures.“

“Then the company that you work for has a slow season (in fact the entire industry you're in slows down). Instead of getting back to basics and getting back to work helping all the people who helped you get where you are...”
