I just received the rain mate no pressure from the salesperson, my husband didn’t have to be present, he filled and plugged in the rain mate told me right away this is yours at no cost . Did his presentation asked if interested I said no and he was on his way . He was a pleasant young man we talked about many things while he was here life in general. So I had no issues

Great video and very well articulated. Like any class most people won't graduate. Not that its special or anything. It's what you take away from it. It improved every domain of my life. The legacy program was the inspiration to start my charity. Also i am friends with the girl in the video. I dont think you need to blur her face. Her real estate company is flourishing and she's a successful painter (actually sells in galleries). I made life long friends including Ed (the guy the girl mentions) who declared he was going to start a alternative medicine cancer facility. I saw him build it from nothing. Robyn Williams was my mentor for many years. Never took a penny from me. She was there for me when my mom died.

I'm in a mandala (Loom) circle. I can assure you that the money is not the main issue here. It is also 'not' a game. It is a circle of growth and support. You grow through the elements. The money is a gift to support the waterwoman's dream. You get so much in return. This system started in Africa, where women support each other with their daily tasks.

I can definitely see where you're coming from and I can agree to an extent. While I don't know for sure because I wasn't part of the conversations with the scammers and victims I went over in this video, I don't think all of the victims were gold diggers. I think some of these victims were very lonely and looking for companionship. From personal experience many years ago, I did help someone financially because they were a loved one and they promised to pay me back, and I lost a lot of money. It took me years to recover from that loss and needless to say, that person and I are no longer in contact.

My stepmom is being scammed, and when I try to tell her she's being scammed, she swells up and screams at me. She refuses to believe that these dudes don't have her best interests at heart and she thinks they love her. She even asked me for $500! She said it was to help a friend. I made her really mad when I didn't give it to her.

It is so cruel how they prey on the most vulnerable people. And so sad how many lonely people will throw everything they have at someone just for a text “good morning” or asking if they’ve eaten today…

My dad has been catfished many times… He was desperate for love after his divorce and, being an older guy with little to no technological/internet literacy, people preyed on him. Thankfully I was able to teach him to at least do reverse image searches and that no one who wants a real relationship asks for money and/or gift cards. Seems obvious, but with how often it occurs, it’s clear that desperation can cloud judgement. 😔 All that said, well done on the vid and I’m glad I was recommended it!

This girl was buying her coffee, showing up at her place of work... Everything. All to find out it was her the whole time.

I dealt with Rainbow vacuum a very long time ago in 1977, I fell for it because, I was young and stupid trying to support a friend that was working for them at the time. They were overpriced then and I think that $3,700 dollars is overprice now in 2024. Back in the day They had these high pressured demonstrations based on a pyramid marketing and sales system. I also suspect they still do that too. It is sad because just last week I purchased a brand new Frigidaire stainless steel gas stove, a hood, a refrigerator, a dishwasher and full installation for under the price of one Rainbow vacuum cleaner. I guess if you have allergies or COPD this might be the right vacuum system for you, however their are other water filtration vacuum systems for around $800 dollars.

This is wild. As a Christian it sickening to hear someone use the Bible to absue children. I can promise you, the Bible does not say women can get married when they hit puberty, nor that Mary got pregnant at 10. And the Bible says to follow the laws of the land. So here in our land, its illegal to marry children.

Their house payment alone was $2800 3 payments behind not including utilities, her Lexus. He only had a work truck, insurance. Her $12,000 wedding ring. He made $60,000 a yr,. They had huge financial obligations and another baby on the way. Shanan was a stay at home Mom but took the 2 girls to daycare everyday so she could sleep with another baby on the way. They had filed bankruptcy. Chris was not allowed to have any of the money he made. Shanan had a very strong personality and beat him down constantly and called him names. Her Mother also has that same personality. He was left home alone broke 5 weeks while her and the girls vacationed in NC. His family didn't come to their wedding. His Mother also telling him what to do. He had lost his identity in trying to please all these women. Seems he had no hobbies or anything for himself like golf, hunting, fishing etc. just a yes man. The guy lost his mind. So much pressure for a young family. Shanan was sick with Lupus so I am sure that put a lot of parenting pressure on him after work. They had filed bankruptcy so his credit was ruined so how could he get a place to live. Many videos of her talking about how bad she treated him laughing I think all of this drove him insane. No man that young can live in a pressure cooker.
