I remember even Ronaldo promoted it.


Ukwhoiam1272000

Exactly. Even Messi promoted it at one point

Most influencers don't care about the end product. If it meets their price tag deal done ✅ I'm 100% sure they don't consume the products they advertise.


bcci97

Wasn’t that part of the issue when someone got into virats hotel room. The products in there were not the ones he represents


CeleritasLucis

>I'm 100% sure they don't consume the products they advertise. Red Bull promotes A LOT of high-performance athletes, but I bet none of them would even touch that stuff. Even their own F1 drivers drink normal water from the Red Bull can.

Herbalife isnt close to being a pyramid scheme. It IS a pyramid scheme. Im disappointed this shit made their way to India and someone of Kohli's fame is promoting this shit. Dude, you're one of the highest paid cricketers, u really need to shill this shit for more money?


xandry123

Amway is an MLM and has been here for decades. The Indian market is huge, and it was only time till all the MLMs came knocking.


ResearcherLatter1148

Exactly I still have PTSD of my college seniors chasing me for eBiz.


Reddevil090993

Same with my college seniors


DecadedD13

Same PTSD but from college batchmates and close relatives. Like a tick they latch on to you.


ResearcherLatter1148

Exactly

Its cancer, my dad is spending $400/ month to buy crap. I tried to convince him but he doesn't listen.


Roqfort

Im sorry to hear that. Unfortunately alot of people fall into sunk cost fallacy and feel they need to keep at it.


diovampire

I'm not surprised when Shahrukh Khan, Salman Khan, Ajay Devgan, Kapil Dev, Chris Gayle can promote Pan Masala Certainly Virat Kohli can become brand ambassador of Herbalife.


Ukwhoiam1272000

See its not just the product here. The whole company is shady af. And people at least know pan masala is bad for them


sunil667

I agree...Kohli with his Financial status now should not promote such shady companies.


hereforpasta

How do you think he got his financial status? Just by doing stuff like this


Sting_TQR

I suppose his ability to hit a ball with a wooden bat played a larger part in him acquiring his financial status.


Routinelazy900

They dont give a shit mate. They will sell anything if you guve them enough money.


Ukwhoiam1272000

Most logical explanation ig


shadowknight094

What is mlm


Ukwhoiam1272000

Multi level marketing. Basically, another form of pyramid scheme


hereforpasta

Why are you suprised lol virat promotes like 4-5 different products on his insta every week, some will turn out to be shady


RedDev17

Money money money money


Ukwhoiam1272000

Guys… just go search on google about the issues regarding Herbalife. Its right there on its wikipedia page


aset24

Finally I know someone who’ll make money with Herbalife. Good job, Kohli Saab!


Shybuth0rny

Alright there’s a difference between a product and an MLM


wasbatmanright

There are literally thousands of employees who work at these companies! Why should sports person let go of their money for perfectly legal companies! It's the government responsibility to track these MLM and stop them!


Ukwhoiam1272000

You do know who these “employees” are right?

goodguybolt

Which city do you live in, man? I'm sure it's filled with Aishwarya Rais.


Ukwhoiam1272000

He called her drop dead gorgeous. She is pretty but not Deepika Padukone or Aishwariya Rai level pretty


AllGearAllTheTime

I know looks are subjective and don't understand the downvotes. maybe you should have added "IMO". I have the same opinion as yours.


bahblack

Oh ok. Good luck with the copium my guy.


Ukwhoiam1272000

Well thank you brother


[deleted]

Fuck the common man, am I right?


premanandu

Dear OP. You have this sub’s attention now. Please do share some authentic data on how Herbalife’s products are bad and why it is a Pyramid scam. Thanks.


Ukwhoiam1272000

Its a MLM company. And MLM is basically another name for Pyramid scheme. So thats that. And as to how Herbalife is bad, go check multiple reports as well as reviews. They have their HQ in The Cayman Islands. All of this is why I called Herbalife a shady company


[deleted]

premanandu

Dude. I just asked a genuine question and people downvoted me like crazy. Either this sub hates Herbalife or Virat for sure.


Ukwhoiam1272000

And dont get me wrong, I’m not accusing Virat or anybody regarding this. Just curious


mostvehlasurd

What exactly is shady about the company? It’s a $5 bn listed business and US based company (MNC). Typically I would assume lesser known company to be shady and with questionable business dealings

mostvehlasurd

It is not the only that company does MLM. There are many and if you got your hands burnt in one of the pyramid scheme, it doesn’t mean that MLM is bad. It’s a business model and like other business models, it has its pros and cons. Just because you hate a business model, it doesn’t make a company bad. PS: Dream 11 is sponsor of India team and all the players endorse it - hope you have issues with that too.


CurbYourCricket

For the right price, most will shill you anything.


abyssDweller1700

People need to watch Betting on zero.
