I think this needs to be discussed.

In the interest of transparency, this is the most recent update posted on the Real Bachelor Jobs site:
“UPDATE (Oct. 29, 2021): Michael Allio reached out to provide clarification on what he thinks we got wrong. As a show of good faith and willingness to hear his side - we want to get things right - we took down today’s Instagram post about this story. However, after a brief chat, we don’t see the need to make any updates to this profile. Everything we shared is publicly available. During our exchange, we also asked Michael to let us know what was factually incorrect on this page, as we’d want to immediately address that. He said he would get back to us next week. We hope he does, as we have a thorough list of follow-up questions based on the additional information he shared.”
AUTHOR’S NOTE: Michael has since taken down/hidden his LinkedIn. He did this after October 29th. There’s also been no clarification from Michael offered yet.
I encourage you all to read the article because it contains screenshots and links to the businesses, interviews with Michael, etc.
But I will post a quick recap here of the most important points: Michael Allio has
- 1 business that may or may not have resold PPE at an insane markup. This business was started in early 2020.
- 1 business that he’s talked about in award interviews but doesn’t appear to exist— it’s a cancer therapeutic
- 1 business that’s been presented as a 51% woman owned or led business but it was just 3 guys + he received a PPE loan for said business
- 1 “cause-based” LLC that is listed as a nonprofit - it is the 1 he made after Laura passed away
I also do want to make clear that this article was originally posted on August 18th, before Clayton was picked as Bachelor.
