For those of you who have been in network marketing for more than a decade Jim Fobair is a well known name. He first rose to fame as a million dollar earner with Herbalife back in the 80s. Then in the 90s he became even more famous (or infamous) as the man behind OneSource, who rose to $65,000,000 in sales of “Laundry CDs” before the program collapsed. In the aftermath the FTC stepped in and reached a settlement that stated the product was a fraud and fined Jim Fobair $50,000.
It’s been quiet from Jim for many years, but now he’s back in this industry as an independent distributor of Youngevity International. And the product? Chocolate!
In his own words: “I can’t keep enough of it in stock. We’ve had an overwhelming positive response to our chocolate. It has a wow factor that you can’t explain in words, so I have everyone just sample it. If they try, they buy it. It’s that good.”

For a guy that left a lot of people with a bad taste in their mouth after the OneSource collapse, this doesn’t sound too bad!
What do you think?

this is funny
How long was he with Tru Chocolate? I see he’s with Unicity now. He sure gets around.
Jim is indeed back. he’s talking churchey now – God stuff. Apparently he has seen the light halleluyah. I’m sure he repaid all those people he scammed years ago and is working to pave the streets of glory with gold now???
For him making all of this money you would think he would have his own home. He live with his parents in Albert Lea, Minnesota in a condo.
Jim was called on to live with and take care of his parents! How can you criticize a man for doing that? If you really look into the above comments, you’ll find out that Jim wasn’t the one who was really to blame for them. If you choose to be sceptical about Jim and how he conducts his business these days, that’s your issue. We don’t need those kind of people dragging us down in our goal of being successful and helping others “make their life better” with Unicity!
I was there during the split of Life Extension when the company changed horses and names. I left with those who were not into the new model and watched as those who were driven by the lure of big money threw down and never bothered to learn to sell their stock, willingly purchased their required volume instead of selling it, to get their payout of their downline so there’s accountability on all sides.
I was one of the people who listed their phone as life extension and got the calls from people returning their stock. They were able to get all their money back from the credit card they bought it with, which is ultimately what killed the company, all the chargebacks. So, Jim was unfairly villainized by people who didn’t read the comp plan and just saw big money and didn’t work and sell the stock they signed off on as having sold to buy the next load. You’ve seen that requirement on all order sheets from way back if you’re honest.
People made a lot of money and Jim took the heat.
I have followed him to Unicity because he knows how to market and open a country and this is a solid product, solid company and the last one he’s planning on doing. He’s training and working like he just started in the industry and that’s penalty enough if you ask me. He’s doing good for people and there’s no old school comp plans anymore, as they all were that way before with heavy monthly volume requirements. People always want to get in, do nothing or little to nothing, make the big bucks and then if it ends up that doesn’t work and God forbid they have to get off their butts and go move product like any distribution company paying you requires, they cry and blame others for their own decisions to pay for their volume instead of selling it.
I learned to sell the 2k monthly requirement in the nutritionals and taught my group to do the same. My downline was split and decimated when the company changed and I learned a lesson. Never get involved with a start up unless you’re willing to take the risk. This company has 20 years behind it and it’s near start up in the US and THAT is an advantage you don’t find often if ever. With a product listed in the physicians desk reference, doctors jumping on board, and people not only losing weight healthily but turning their diabetic conditions around because of the nature of this patented unique product. If you have any knowledge of how to choose a company and opportunity thats worth your effort and time you better look at this one. It’s time has come and it’s hitting momentum now. Jim has developed the marketing system making it simple for people part time to make serious money by taking the product to the marketplace, the only requirement is the basic 100pt order to get paid as all companies require to share the equity. It’s firing on all pistons with a comp plan that is so comprehensive you’ll be hard pressed to find one that takes care of its people at all points of org development like this one does. Whether retailing or org building you’re not going to see payout like this anywhere with a stable infrastructure, and risk free low barrier to entry.
It’s the best chance anyone is going to get to replace full time income and retirement losses in this lifetime and economy.
