[@alexbenavidez4500]

Lularoe was still a problem. It's been under legal fire for constituting as an illegal pyramid scheme; meaning it's not a company in which you can make a legitimate profit from selling to customers The profit is almost entirely contained to the pyramid of members or "consultants" in the scheme Your recruiter earned their paycheck from recruiting you and the money you spent on inventory to enter the scheme Because you have to constantly buy merchandise, you don't profit from sales to customers, instead you profit from recruiting others into the scheme, by getting a share of the money they spent buying the inventory frontload And for them to profit, they have to recruit as well, and so on Unless you are at the very top of the scheme, you are not earning money from selling merchandise, no matter how hard you try You earn by recruiting people into a scam; the profit comes from and stays within the pyramid, and that is why it's illegal This woman is an idiot for falling for it, although these scams specifically target women like her The fact she's now part of a different MLM, proving she didn't learn her lesson last time is truly where her problem is You can't win in these scams without scamming others. But only an absolute tool would sign up the scam a second time after being bankrupted once. Looks like she's only remorseful about the Lularoe pyramid crashing on her, and not the fact that it's going to crash on someone. So long as she's at the top, she doesn't care. That's an idiot with money who deserves to fail.

Suffering with impulsive spending habits or a "shopping addiction" These MLMs are like ANY OTHER PREDATOR in that they have a very specific type of PREY... Most adults that responsibly manage their finances wouldn't even consider buying into a scheme like this... So, that speaks for itself when it comes to the TYPES of ppl falling prey to these schemes.

[@TheSameYellowToy]

MLMs, just like cults, often prey on people who don't have a good (or any) social support group. Lonely people or people who don't have healthy relationships are a prime target for them. MLMs and cults will "love bomb" you when you're new. Suddenly, you're surrounded by tons of new friends who compliment you nonstop, believe in you, and love you so much! ...Only this "friendship" and "love" is very conditional. If you start questioning the MLM/cult or leave, all of your new "friends" will mock you and/or shun you. MLMs and cults also try to isolate their members from any opposing viewpoints. Only the MLM/cult is right. Anyone who does not support the company/cult is automatically wrong. People who don't support it are all negative, stupid, misinformed, haters, jealous, toxic, awful, or even evil people who don't want you to succeed, so you need to cut them out of your life! Your friends and family who think you're making a mistake by being part of this, and trying to talk you out of it, are all just a bunch of dumb negative haters who are only going to bring you down, they don't actually care about you like we in the MLM/cult do! And even if an MLM doesn't explicitly tell you to cut off your loved ones...their sales tactics are an indirect way to cut them off. Constantly spamming your friends and family with sales pitches on social media and turning every social interaction with them into a potential sale is eventually going to drive everyone who doesn't want to get involved with the MLM away from you...which helps solidify the echo chamber.

Women who were lost, looking for purpose, vulnerable due to past financial mistakes, etc. They target this demographic because when the consultants fail (and they will fail), they know that they will be ashamed and embarrassed.

she didn't actually manufacture the substandard clothing

[@maximumdigital-9252]

slimydick23 no, but to make that money she did more than sell clothes, she recruited others to become sellers, and 99% of them lost money. Promised they'd get rich then found out nobody wants them.

[@marlo8528]

Aww, sis has a money management problem. She needs a personal finance class.

[@marlo8528]

@SweetPhantom But she said that she had a shopping addiction before she started Lularoe, and that's the reason she filed Chap 7 bankruptcy the first time. Her mismanagement of money started before this MLM.

[@ProductionsHabby]

She has a few problems if you actually watched. None of us should have to pay these taxes. The government stands at your door and knocks for their share anytime you make a cent.

[@marlo8528]

@@ProductionsHabby I'm sure you enjoy roads, fire departments, police departments, the military, etc. Taxes pay for these things. She wasn't paying for anything, hence the car repo. Taxes were the least of her problems.

The clothes are overpriced & ugly. This is what happens when people buy a brand name.

They really are. I’ve not seen anything I’d ever wear from this company and I’ve watched a lot of these videos now.

I've heard the quality is shit too. You can buy better clothes at Walmart.

She needs to do a Offer In Compromise with the IRS for taxes owed, I did one for 20 cents on the dollar, it saved me from ruin!!

Finally a productive, helpful comment. All the other comments are pretty cruel. This lady took time to share her story. I commend her for that.

We’re so quick to judge but everyone has a vice. There is a deeper issue here. I hope she realizes and gets back on her feet ❤️.

"Just got rid of the last of my lularoe" "It's like getting rid of cancer" 👍

[@Donde_Lieta]

So I got cancer in 2018 when Lularoe really started to fail, and at the hospital where I’d get chemo, they would often bring around carts filled with free stuff for the patients and one time they brought a cart of like 100 lularoe leggings around the chemo ward. In my head I was like “someone must’ve had to have gone out of business” I did in fact pick out a pair cause I didn’t wanna be rude, they are ugly af. Lol

[@RussellFineArt]

I really appreciate this documentary as I went through something similar with Melaleuca, where I worked the business hard, for several years, moved up the ladder, won prizes and company titles, started making good money and then everything started falling apart with people dropping off and quitting. I wasn't sure why as the products were and are high quality and the company has always been pretty honest but their prices are outrageously high. I went to Walmart and Target one day, with a pad of paper, and compared Melaleuca products with grocery store products and found they were up to 5-times cheaper and I didn't need to commit to buying $80-$100 worth of toothpaste, laundry soap and other products, every month. I firmly believe that network marketing/MLM companies are a giant scam and should be avoided, at all costs! I went back to college, finished my degree, got a great job

$25k a month in income and $48k in tax debt? Not claiming LLR is innocent, but she made her own poor personal finance decisions.

All MLMs are selling you a dream. Not giving you a job. If you're 34 and having to file bankruptsy because of your shopping habit, you need help. Otherwise you're gonna be 44 and not have anywhere to live but you will have 65 pair of shoes.

[@maltinamaltina2665]

She has plenty of issues, but she doesn't seem like a horrible person, so I would bet she does have friends/family and at least one trustworthy person told her it was a terrible idea, but she didn't listen. Plus there's always Google. Remember, one of the first thing MLM people do is warn you that 'so-called friends and family will be jealous of your opportunity or not understand it, and warn you against it - don't listen, this is a chance in a lifetime etc'. The problem is, she's vulnerable plus she's not very smart, and she just has no impulse control. Hard to believe, but she is still involved in MLMs. It's amazing how many people do exactly what she has done, and join other MLMs hoping to pay off debts that came out of the first scheme. The predatory MLM 'huns' love desperate victims of other MLMs: "Oh, hun, Lularoe is awful, you're so lucky you got out of it... I'm in a great business, much better than Lularoe, you will be a boss babe in no time..."

Y'all. Take 5000$ and BUY a used car. Like, save about 5,500$ and then once you've reached your amount, go BUY the car in cash and be done with it.
