When
we were in Amway it appeared to me that the only thing the ambots in our upline
were interested in doing was destroying other people’s lives. Of course all
under the guise that they were “helping” others.
Yeah helping them to the poor house!
It doesn’t matter if you’re an IBO who has been involved in Amway only for a
few months or for many years. Either way you’re losing lots of money. Over 99%
failure rate. Amway’s own literature shows that less than a third of 1% of
IBO’s make money. Its a safe bet that everyone you meet who is involved in
Amway is losing money and they’re probably bitter about it but they have to
keep up a happy face. The lie. Business is going good. To prove it they’ll whip
out a credit card and buy themselves some new toys like a music sound system.
Couldn’t afford this if I wasn’t doing good in Amway. Fake it till you make it!
I met a lot of angry people in Amway even though they plastered on fake smiles
and pretended like nothing was wrong if there was a newcomer to the group. But
they were angry. They were brainwashed by their Amway cult leaders to spend a
lot of money buying Amway products, buying motivational books and CDs, buying
tickets to functions, travel expenses involved in functions, and if they didn’t
have the spare cash on hand to go into debt. Also ambots had to furnish their
homes with nice things and buy nice business suits and do everything they could
to convey to others how successful they are. Bring out that credit card again!
Ambots were losing money and going into debt to do so all under the name of
Amway. Thanks to their upline cult leaders who convinced them this is what they
had to do to be financially successful in Amway. It might be hard in the
beginning but once the money starts rolling in the big bucks from residual
income will be coming in forever.
In the meantime ambots are so angry about their financial losses that they get
extremely angry at people who have things they don’t have. Can’t afford a nice
car or to buy a house as long as you’re involved in Amway. The upline cult
leaders tell you how to spend your money and you damned well better spend it on
everything that has to do with Amway!
In their anger ambots seek out others they can financially destroy too. Gotta
suck in some other poor bastards in whatever extreme hope they have that one or
two downline or customers might help them get some of their money back. So they
lie and say everything is wonderful and Amway is awesome and come and join us
on the road to financial freedom. And once you’re in my downline if you own
things that I don’t have I’m going to take them away from you!
Our upline Platinum (and probably everyone between us and him) was outraged
that I drove a newer model car. Outraged! I paid cash for it before we signed
up with Amway so its not like I had to take out a loan or anything. The car was
mine free and clear. To me its just a car. I don’t have any strong emotional
attachment to it. I don’t even like shopping for cars. I keep the car looking
good inside and outside, regular oil changes and tune ups and other maintenance
as needed. Its reliable and looks good, almost looks like new
condition and meets my purposes. As far as our Amway upline was concerned
how dare I have a better car than others in my upline. How dare I!!! The rest
of the upline bastards are driving around in rust bucket clunkers that are
always breaking down. We were counselled to sell my car, spend a few hundred
bucks and buy a 30 year old luxury (clunker) car and use the remaining money to
buy Amway products.
Yeah right you sack of shit Platinum. Fuck you asshole. How about I quit Amway
and keep my car? Fucking son of a bitch.
The other thing that caused outrage with our upline was that we own a house.
Many years ago we saved up money for a down payment and bought our first house.
That’s what responsible people do isn’t it? This is all happened long before we
got involved in Amway. As life progresses and needs change people sell their
houses and use the equity to buy a new one and here we are in our current house
also purchased before getting involved in Amway. The upline ambots were
outraged! How dare we own a house when hardly anyone in our upline does!
So how can those fucking ambots take our house away from us? Got it! They
counselled us to take out a 2nd mortgage or take out a line of credit against
the equity in the house and use this money to buy more Amway shit and “invest
in your business”. Keep doing it until you can’t pay it back and meet your
mortgage payments and the bank will foreclose. Its all part of our scheme. You
can’t have what we don’t have because you haven’t earned the privilege yet!
Yeah right you sack of shit Platinum and all the rest of you fucking upline
bastards. How about I quit Amway and don’t lose my house?
Angry jealous ambots. Just another one of life’s pleasures one has to put up
with when getting involved in the Amway cult.
“You can’t have what we don’t have and if you already have it when you come
into Amway we will take it away from you!” The ambot mission. Seek and destroy!!!!
Fuck you Amway and fuck your low life scum of the earth fucking Ambots too!
It's very true that Amway up-line (no matter which AMO it is) takes a very bitter and infuriated attitude towards down-line IBOs who are financially comfortable, and who own their own homes and drive nice cars. It really gets under their skin to see a down-line IBO who isn't in debt, or who isn't living precariously, or who doesn't have to scrimp and save to buy function tickets.
ReplyDeleteWhy? It's pure envy. A comfortable and affluent down-line ambot doesn't fit the rags-to-riches bullshit narrative of Amway. All IBOs are supposed to be scrounging food out of garbage cans before they join Amway and start on their path to riches. You're expected to be poor and servile when you're a low-level IBO. You certainly can't have better things than what up-line has.
Up-line will even tell you to sell whatever valuable possessions you have, and use the cash to buy more of those stupid training "tools." Fine furniture, rare heirlooms, jewelry, precious collections -- they will pour scorn upon these things and demand that you sell them.
Any cult controls its members by keeping them financially dependent and totally obedient. Amway is a goddamned CULT.
To all IBOs -- you need to break out of Amway completely, and you can start by telling your Platinum to go fuck himself.
Anonymous - that's exactly right. It really pisses off the fucking assholes in the Amway upline when someone downline signs up a new sucker IBO who has actually made a little headway in life and owns a nice car, nice house, nice belongings. Amway Ambot motto: You can't have what we don't have!!!
DeleteYup I'm all about telling everyone in Amway to go fuck themselves!
Another problem with Amway is the ferocious competition between IBOs who live in the same area, but who are linked with different AMO subsystems. The two IBOs are fiercely trying to recruit people to be in their down-line, and they resent the fact that someone else in their vicinity may be stealing potential recruits from them. If one IBO is in WWG and the other is in Network 21, the anger can get violent.
ReplyDeleteThis is made even worse by the fact that recruiting down-line is now next to impossible in North America, unless you aim exclusively at naive inexperienced students, small-town losers, or the unintelligent. Amway's reputation is now so bad that the general population is pretty much convinced that the whole thing is a stupid racket.
Naturally this situation makes Amway members angrier and angrier. How can you get someone to trust you when you're not allowed to mention the name of the company you represent? Or if you can't answer their questions directly about the chances for profit?
The anti-MLM movement is growing stronger every day. Americans are a lot tougher-minded and more cynical than they were thirty years ago. Amway is desperate for suckers, but they are rarer than ever.
You're right Anonymous. The rivalry between the different Amway cult sects is vicious. Also even the crossline between the same cult sects. The Amway cult leaders will blame the leaders of the other Amway cult sect, whether they're all in WWDB or Network 21 or whatever, that their downline aren't successful and don't make money because of the leaders. Yup Amway is a blame the victim scam even when blaming other members of the Amway cult LOL! Each Amway cult sect thinks they're the greatest, most devout worshippers of the Great Amway God and are destined for riches. And the other Amway cult sects won't be part of the riches. It's really stupid. But stupid is the mentality of Amway losers.
