LuLa Rich

[Calee]

Anyone else watch/watching this documentary on Prime? I was never into LuLa Roe but a lot of people I knew were. This is kind of fascinating to watch.

 

[AgentMama]

Oh, I've been waiting for that to come out, I'll have to check it out.

 

[dislaney]

I watched it and it was fascinating and slightly crazy.

Yeah, from episode one where they describe their family and 2 of their adopted children are married to each other and they act like that's normal, I was thinking this is a crazy train.

Watched last night. Seems there are way more problems than I had ever heard of over the years. I'm surprised they are still in business.

 

[mom2rb]

I watched it. The fact that they are still in business is depressing.

 

[NYCgrrl]

Never heard of the clothing line but since it’s sold through individuals, I guess that makes sense.

My sister sold LuLaroe and never made a dime so I plan to watch it tomorrow. We all told her not to sign up but she swore it sells itself on FB. She recently donated all the stock she had left to a women’s shelter.

[superme80]

No, but I need to.

 

[kymom99]

I did. It really opened my eyes to how these things work. It’s crazy how many lives it ruined

I finished watching it yesterday. When Lularoe was big I had a bad feeling about it then. Not sure why. Something just seemed off. I never bought any of their products.

What’s crazy to me is that there are still so many people who don’t know how these schemes work. Just within the past week or so two different people have approached me to buy something from their new network marketing ventures. I loved it in the first episode where the actuary said it would take the world’s entire population to have kept the LuluRoe pyramid going to 13 levels.

 

[GreatLakes]

It's on my watchlist for some point in the future. How people could be duped into an obvious pyramid scheme is beyond me.

It reminds me of the saying "A fool and his money are soon parted".

Are they still in business?

Before covid every festival, fair, flea market, and celebration that had vendors selling things usually had 2 or 3 LuLaRoe women there. Usually with the most hideous looking leggings for sale.

According to the documentary, they are.

I have a few friends who got into the lularoe fad. I always thought the clothes were tacky. Then I watched the show and thought all the women looked like circus clowns in those loud prints.

I suspect most people in pyramid schemes make exactly the same amount. I don't see how people continue to get into these things.

It was interesting and how they showed the family as villains (which yes absolutely) but they portrayed the “whistleblowers” some who had roped in tons of “consultants” under them as victims when they too earned big money scamming other women…

Many, many people were perpetrators here- not just the weirdo family.
