The past few months have been momentous for Vi UK as two of its founding Promoters hit over $250,000 in personal earnings* within their first year with Vi.
To mark this extraordinary milestone, 3-Star Ambassador Dave Ives—along with his partner Sarah-Jane Howe—and 2-Star Ambassador Amanda Churcher were awarded with Vi’s exclusive $250,000 Earners Pendant.

We caught up with them to get insight into what their Vi journey has been like so far.

Now with a team of nearly 900 Promoters, 3-Star Ambassadors Dave and SJ have helped over 200 people on their team achieve a BMW, and have already helped three become Ambassadors.

TelexFree Co-Owner Asks Courts To Release $4M For Legal Costs
by Tina Williams • • 0 Comments
Facing steep costs to defend himself against a criminal fraud charge, TelexFREE co-owner James Merrill has asked a federal court to release more than $4 million of his money so he can pay his legal fees.
While the Ashland man’s attorney’s 8-page motion doesn’t mention where that money came from, Merrill argues it’s the responsibility of U.S. prosecutors to prove the funds are related to their charge against him, which stems from his alleged role atop what they say was an international pyramid scheme.
“Certainly, the government is in no position to challenge the contention that extraordinary funds are necessary to defend the instant prosecution,” Boston-based lawyer Robert Goldstein wrote in the Tuesday filing in U.S. District Court in Worcester. “Indeed, at the original bail hearing, the government not only argued this was not ‘a typical white-collar case,’ but it proceeded to argue that it ‘is probably the largest financial fraud being prosecuted in the United States currently…'”
Merrill specifically identifies five accounts he hopes to draw from to fund his defense: two held in Merrill’s name containing $79,684.28; two in Merrill’s and his wife Kristin Merrill’s names containing $4,090,085.97; and one in the name of his cleaning company, Cleaner Image Associates, containing $10,643.

Bidness Etc predicts a rise in Herbalife stocks in their article posted today:
Herbalife Ltd. (HLF) is up about over 33.5% since our last Bullish update on the stock in March. The stock is still down about 15.2% year-to-date (YTD) due to persistent concerns regarding its business model and related investigations; however, it has been on an upswing since April as a result of the company’s strong financial performance.
Herbalife’s trust-building initiatives – such as providing a Gold Standard Guarantee and posting testimonials from members and customers on iamherbalife.com – have also helped it make its business model more transparent, thereby boosting investors’ confidence in the company.
Herbalife is already working on reducing its dependence on its multilevel marketing model – the main point of contention with its critics – with new campaigns. It launched “CR7 Driven to Perfection” with Cristiano Ronaldo last month.
