      BB huns in particular absolutely worship their CEO while STILL calling themselves CEOs. If that’s not proof that they don’t know what a CEO actually is and does, I don’t know what is. Notice that they never call themselves CFOs of their biz despite being “in charge” of their income and business expenses.

      Also this isn’t important but I feel like it’s valuable information. In 2015 when this was originally put out, the success club system was not as described in this video. That system wasn’t brought in until like 2018-2019.
      The original system, THIS “prize” was for “success club 5”, which required 3 challenge pack sales during the month and 90PV (shakeology) on auto ship going through. Again, this doesn’t matter in the grand scheme because it’s still a super lame gift for that much work (3 people is more than you think when you’re trying to sell) and was absolutely worth nothing in my eyes and the eyes of hundreds of other people I knew.
      Also note this isn’t the weirdest prize. I used to have an entire “collection” of bobble head dolls that were the various super trainers. Do with that information what you will 😂 I still laugh at it to this day. It’s a shame they got smashed in their box during my move 😂

      And I totally agree on EDs. They are more lethal than almost any other mental health disorder. Yet when I was on a course on mental health first aid, we didn't talk one word about EDs. On the other hand the instructor used dieting as a relatable/funny example.
      Just tells how EDs aren't considered problems, while disordered eating is almost a standard and EDs are common.

It has a non-tacky feel, right? You love it? How about this? Nice, right?” And general nods of assent all around. Thus completes the “study,” which barely even qualifies as a focus group.

    I can "believe" the results of the Monat makeup "studies" to be "accurate"... when I consider that the 30-40 people they're using as product testers/"study participants" are likely their top ranking reps. Of COURSE the results are going to be overwhelmingly positive, because the people giving feedback have just as much to gain from "liking" the products as the people doing the "study."

    Also, having been a Plexus Ambassador myself, it costs FAR more than an occasional Starbucks coffee to use their products. Back when I was just a customer, you are heavily encouraged to sign up for their auto-ship program.

Obviously I refuse but I went to find an income disclosure statement out of curiosity and there isn’t one. She also told me last year while I was pregnant when she was having a pampered chef party, not as a rep yet, that I should do pampered chef because “it’s good for stay at home moms”. To which I told her that pampered chef is sketchy, just like Mary Kay is sketchy. Her argument was that it’s been around for a long time and I told her that doesn’t mean it can’t be sketchy.

    In my humble opinion (as someone who frequently gets new games from thrift stores) I don't bother getting opened ones, because there's no guarantee of all the pieces being there. So I'm not sure if donating it would do as much harm as people think, because most people getting games from Goodwill or other thrifting stores don't get opened ones. Meaning now that its been opened people are less likely to take it home. However if you DO want to donate it again I will say binding it up with a BUNCH of rubber bands, and putting a "THIS IS AN MLM HERE IS THE EXPLANATION ND SOME RESOURCES AS TO WHY THIS IS A BAD BUSINESS" card inside is the best way to minimize the potential harm of some unsuspecting mom grabbing this for her kiddos unawares and then get the idea of "Hmmm shakeology huh?" Amazing video as always Hannah, and I hope you and your family have the wonderful day that you deserves ^^ (Your kitties are included in the family~ Pet them bunches for me!)

    The Pampered Chef lady's pitch -- I did catch a (subtle) red flag in the first half. She sets up a false dichotomy wherein either someone is hiding the company/being shady, OR they openly say what their company is and therefore there's zero shady or unethical behavior! Ignoring of course that though the name is presented, there are still a thousand ways to be unethical.
    I also enjoyed the crazy game unboxing! And I agree that the best choice may be to trash/recycle it. Great video again!

The way they think it’s such a flex, while it’s actually a HUGE way of exposing the company. She is so so close to seing it herself. The information is right in front of them, but the block in their brain makes them completely oblivious to it. It is truly fascinating.. and scary.

    In the UK, there is an industry body named the British Polling Council that ever major polling organisation is a member of. The BPC requires that when you publish a political opinion poll, you need to disclose your methodology, who sponsored the poll, your exact question wording, and a detailed breakdown of responses.
    I think it would be fantastic if market research polls were held to those same standards; it would certainly help explain how they got 99% of 35 people.

Yeah he was thinner but was really unhappy and it nearly cost us our marriage. Now he doesn’t use shakeology, he doesn’t work out 3 times a day, eats more than chicken broccoli with rice, and is a much happier person.

    My household is not doing well financially. At all. We feel the recession for sure. But I still treat myself to coffee once a week because I budget for it and it gives me something to look forward to after a long work week. It also makes all the other sacrifices we make seem less dramatic because I still get a little something to indulge in regularly. So if anything my little $6 coffee a week saves me money overall. 🤷🏼‍♀️

You bet I’m getting an expensive Starbucks drink if I want to during one of the multiple layovers 😂 plus, being vegetarian and lactose intolerant, sometimes Starbucks is the only place that has milk alternatives like soy or oat (where I live it’s also one of the few widely available stores to have plant-based food). Not that I care what a hun thinks but just adding to the idea that maybe people are living their own life different from hers, I know, shocking
