My story of what its like to be married to an Amway cult follower. I expose the lies that our upline told and what happens at Amway meetings and functions. I leave the explanations of why Amway is a poor business opportunity or the tool scam to other bloggers. This blog mainly exists to curse out my former upline, aka the cult leaders, and to let everyone know what kind of idiots I had to put up with. Feel free to join in or live vicariously!

In Amway Learn How To Trade Hours For Pennies
6 comments:
Comments are moderated but we publish just about everything. Even brainwashed ambots who show up here to accuse us of not trying hard enough and that we are lazy, quitters, negative, unchristian dreamstealers. Like we haven’t heard that Amspeak abuse from the assholes in our upline!
If your comment didn’t get published it could be one of these reasons:
1. Is it the weekend? We don’t moderate comments on weekends. Maybe not every day during the week either. Patience.
2. Racist/bigoted comments? Take that shit somewhere else.
3. Naming names? Public figures like politicians and actors and people known in Amway are probably OK – the owners, Diamonds with CDs or who speak at functions, people in Amway’s publicity department who write press releases and blogs. Its humiliating for people to admit their association with Amway so respect their privacy if they’re not out there telling everyone about the love of their life.
4. Gossip that serves no purpose. There are other places to dish about what Diamonds are having affairs or guessing why they’re getting divorced. If you absolutely must share that here – don’t name names. I get too many nosy ambots searching for this. Lets not help them find this shit.
5. Posting something creepy anonymously and we can’t track your location because you’re on a mobile device or using hide my ass or some other proxy. I attracted an obsessed fan and one of my blog administrators attracted a cyberstalker. Lets keep it safe for everyone. Anonymous is OK. Creepy anonymous and hiding – go fuck yourselves!
6. Posting something that serves no purpose other than to cause fighting.
7. Posting bullshit Amway propaganda. We might publish that comment to make fun of you. Otherwise take your agenda somewhere else. Not interested.
8. Notice how this blog is written in English? That's our language so keep your comments in English too. If you leave a comment written in another language then we either have to use Google translate to put it into English so everyone can understand what you wrote or we can hit the Delete button. Guess which one is easier for us to do?
9. We suspect you're a troublemaking Amway asshole.
10. Your comment got caught in the spam filter. Gets checked occasionally. We’ll get to you eventually and approve it as long as it really isn’t spam.
I trade my hours for my boss's dollars. If I wanted be an IBO I would much rather go into the same business my boss is doing (because he has already trained me by paying me to learn his business) than to buy into a scam like Amway. Or I could use my job as a reference to show my skill set I have been paid to learn. Imagine using Amway as a reference. "Yeah, I'm real good at buying cases of overpriced pukey energy drinks, soap and vitamins and stuff and then going around looking for suckers as dumb as myself to try to get my money back. Did it for years. But now I need to make some money, so you wanna hire me?"
ReplyDeleteHi Anonymous. I agree. If you want to start your own business it's better going into something where you already have knowledge of the industry and contacts. What kind of job skills do you get in Amway? As you said there's not much call for people who can buy overpriced shitty Amway products!
DeleteLove this blog. Is there a way I can send you a Facebook chat where an Ambot tries to get me to join, I think you would find it hilarious.
ReplyDeleteHi Mathew. If you can copy and paste it, just stick it into the comments of the most recent post here so more can see it! Yeah anytime an ambot tries to bullshit about Amway its hilarious. Its just not so funny when you're on the receiving end of abuse and going through financial and emotional distress thanks to Amway.
DeleteLet's look at it dispassionately. If you work for a merely nominal sum (pennies on the hour), that is a sacrifice. If you give away your time, that is a sacrifice. If you spend good money on stuff that is essentially overpriced or worthless, that is a sacrifice. If you pay for and go to some utterly useless event featuring a loudmouth diamond who gives you a pep-talk, that is a sacrifice.
ReplyDeleteWhere and when are sacrifices made? In religions, and in religious services!
It cannot be said often enough: Amway is basically a religion, not a business. What stupid IBOs are doing is really just putting cash into the collection plate for their God -- the Great God of Amway.
It's OK to practice your religion, whatever it may be. But don't insult the intelligence of other people by claiming that you are practicing free enterprise.
Hi Anonymous. One thing real business owners know is if they have to take a loss its better to take a loss on their time rather than on product. In Amway, an Ambot takes losses on both.
DeleteYeah I remember hearing the sacrifice shit at Amway cult meetings. It's all part of Amway's twisted religion. Why the hell should I sacrifice anything - time or money just to appease the Great Amway God.
