Wanna Quit Amway? “You Can’t Quit Now!”


“You can’t quit now. Not when success is just around the corner. You’re about to go really big.”

We’ve all heard that phrase from the fucking assholes in our Amway upline. Or something similar enough.

They do whatever they can to motivate their downline IBO’s to stay with Amway. Keep buying products and buying more tools so the upline can benefit and get rich.

What about something else they say that goes to the effect: “You haven’t been in Amway long enough to make any money from it.”

Its kind of like you’re in Las Vegas and playing a slot machine for an hour. You’ve invested a couple of hundred dollars into this machine and you know at any minute this machine is due for a huge jackpot win. You don’t want to walk away after investing a fair amount of money but on the other hand there are other things you have to do like those tickets to the Celine Dion show cost $500 and you better get your ass in gear before you miss the show and have a pissed off spouse.

Its kind of like being in Amway and pissing off your spouse by throwing away your money chasing useless dreams!

The guy playing the slots is going to get coins dropping into the bin every now and then, enough to entice him to keep playing that machine.

Kind of like Amway. In a one month period to qualify for a bonus check you have to spend about $300 buying shitty, useless products and Amway corporation issues a check for $10 to entice the IBO to hang in a little longer. The net loss is going to be way over $290 because of the cost of tools depending on whether or not there’s a major function that month could be a net loss of well over $500.

I’d rather take my chances in Las Vegas. Even with the cost of getting there and hotel and meals it’s still cheaper than an Amway function. And more fun. Better food, better enteraitnment, better tourist attractions. Better odds than 1% of actually making some money too!

I’m sure Amway IBO’s will argue that Ambot and I weren’t in Amway long enough to make any money. That’s why we quit and we’re a bunch of losers, etc, etc. So how long does someone have to be in Amway to figure out that they’re not making any money and they’re losing too much money and its better just to cut the losses and quit now. A couple of months? 6 months? A year? Two years? Longer? How many years does it take just to sign up ONE downline? If you can’t sign up anyone in a year that’s a pretty big clue that maybe its time to jump off this sinking ship.

Nope, you can’t quit now, not when success is right around the corner!

I read a book called Merchants ofDeception written by a former Emerald. His experience was eerily similar to ours even though we didn’t have any where near the downline he had. We had zero downline. No customers other than a couple of friends/family who took pity and bought a couple of small things. The original website is gone. I’m not sure why the author decided to close down shop about but a mirror website exists and a free copy ofthe book is available. I highly recommend reading this book. It spells out why the system is stacked against IBO’s and why it is nearly impossible to reach the income levels the Diamonds taunt will be yours one day as long as you don’t quit when success is so close you can reach out and touch it.

    Amway assholes make a big thing about quitting, and how "quitters never win" and similar bullshit. But the facts are simple: If you are doing something and it is not paying off, the sensible thing is to quit and do something else.

    Every REAL businessman knows this. Fake businessmen like the jerks in Amway don't seem to know it.

    If you open a pork butcher shop in Tel Aviv, you're not going to do much business! So the smart businessman closes his Tel Aviv shop and moves someplace else where there is a demand for pork products. Is that "quitting," according to the Amway assholes? Sure it is. But it is also the smart thing to do!

    Would you try to sell oil to the Saudi Arabians? Would you export pasta to Italy? Would you open a hamburger joint in a vegetarian community?

    If you were stupid enough to do any of the above, the intelligent thing to do would be to quit, and then do something else. This is exactly what people in Amway need to realize: YOU'RE NOT GOING TO MAKE ANY MONEY IN THIS AMWAY RACKET. IT'S DESIGNED SOLELY TO ENRICH YOUR UP-LINE.

    Therefore quitting is the smartest thing you can do. Get the hell out of Amway before it bankrupts you.

    1. Anonymous - those are all good points. I especially like you can’t quit now not when bankruptcy is right around the corner.

      Real business people shut down for a variety of reasons such as not profitable, lost interest, trying another venture, retiring what have you.

      This bullshit Amway brainwashing and being obedient to the Amway cult leaders and getting permission before quitting is just fucking creepy. Of course the cult leaders don’t want you to quit and lose the money they make off you. Just like that woman who wrote that her husband agreed that he’d quit Scamway if he hadn’t signed anyone up. When he talked to his upline they wouldn’t let him quit. Like what the fuck. Is he not an adult capable of making his own decisions? Not when he’s a brainwashed Amway loser. He was counselled by the fucking assholes in his upline to get divorced instead of quitting Amway!

  2. I studied psychology in university and the slot machine analogy is correct...people have a harder time walking/running away from something when they have invested significant time/money/emotional energy into something. I saw this is Amway.

    1. Anonymous- there’s that. Plus the whole brainwashing thing and not daring to disobey the Amway cult leaders.

  3. Those Amway types who told that IBO to divorce his wife should be castrated and disemboweled. How dare they try to wreck someone's family?

    Here's the real evil of Amway up-line: they are not just ignorant and smug. They are also vicious and overbearing and domineering, like concentration camp guards. They have utter contempt for down-line.

    1. Anonymous - that's one of the reasons this blog is so important. Other bloggers are more about why Amway is a bad business to get involved with and will bring you financial distress. This blog also is about how Amway brings emotional distress too.

      Ambots will brag about how Amway saves marriages. LOL! Like being in a cult and having your money drained can save a marriage! LOL! Ambots can't back up that lie. Online there are thousands of stories about how Amway destroyed families.

      Not only is the above guy willing to get divorced to show how much he worships the Great Amway God his wife is pregnant, due in August, and the fucking assholes in his Amway upline are riding his ass because he didn't ask permission first before adding on to his family.

      Amway: the Cult of Greed.

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.
