The
thing I’ve noticed about Amway ambots is that they are the most negative people
around. At every Amway meeting I attended our Platinum would moan and bitch
about all the bad things happening in the world.
Seeing as how I didn’t like him and wrote off everything he said as a lie, I
saw it was all a ploy to brainwash ambots into thinking that their only
salvation from all the doom and gloom in the world is Amway.
Recession, house values sinking, job loss, and all the other lovely things the
Platinum focused on at Amway meetings for the first hour or so. All the bad
things going on. He’d talk about how people were at high levels of debt. He’d
brag about being debt free but I knew he was lying. He’d recently bought a
house and there is no way in hell that he paid cash for it. Like everyone else
he and his wife saved up for a down payment, applied for a mortgage, and moved
in. I’m sure he’s the type of person who has a line of credit on his house.
He’d need that credit line to pay off all the credit card bills that accumulate
thanks to the Amway business and for faking it to everyone he knows about how
good business is going and he drives a nice car, and blah, blah, blah. All of
us who own houses and cars and have kids know all about unexpected expenses.
Do I know for sure that our former Platinum has a line of credit against the
equity on his house? Nope. But I say its a good guess because our Emerald tried
to convince Ambot to do that so he could pay off his credit card debt he ran up
thanks to Amway and then when his credit card was down to zero balance there’d
be more room to keep buying Amway products and tools. Our Platinum told us he
was debt free and had paid off his credit card debt and whatever other debts he
had thanks to Amway. I don’t think it was thanks to Amway at all other than
someone involved in Amway told him to take out the equity line of credit on his
house and use it to pay off debt. If he had to sell his house right now he’d
probably be able to sell it for around the same amount of money he paid for it
maybe a bit more. House prices around here have stayed the same for years not
going up not going down. He’s not in the greatest part of town and he’s not too
good at dealing with home maintenance not to mention that bathroom an army of downline
IBO’s wanna be plumbers and electricians put in that’s not up to code. All it
takes is the buyer’s home inspector to put the kibash on that sale! Who knows?
Perhaps he’s planning to live there for awhile but as long as he’s in Amway and
uses that line of credit to pay off his bills he’s never going to make much
equity.
At least the Emerald didn’t give him some dumb ass advice to sell his house,
use the equity to pay off his debt, and then find a place to rent while he
saves up to buy a house again. So at least he’s got a house. He’s got real
property. Probably no equity! Probably not going to lose money when he sells.
And yes I know he wants to sell because Amway is going to fund his dreams of
buying Puryear’s river house!
Still he bitches about the economy, the nation’s debt load, businesses closing
down, house prices sinking, people losing jobs, bankruptcy, foreclosures, etc
etc. Shit! Nothing like combining an already depressing Amway meeting with all
the depressing stuff that’s going on in the world. Like Amway talk isn’t
depressing all on its own without bringing in outside forces!
Then he tells everyone in the room that because they’re in Amway they won’t
have to worry about any of the problems plaguing the rest of the world. They’ll
be able to pay cash for their houses and everything else they want. And they’ll
be able to do this how? Because they’re loading up their credit cards with more
debt buying Amway products?
This is what happens when you take financial advise from an unqualified
financial advisor. This is what happens when you “counsel” with upline who are
only looking out for themselves and how they can make money off you. I didn’t
believe any of that bullshit about how they’re helping us and helping others.
Helping themselves get rich and causing misery in other people’s lives is more
like it.
Go to an Amway meeting and hear about all the bad things happening in the world
plus the cult leader’s exaggerated spin on world events.
Doom and gloom. That’s all I ever got out of Scamway!
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!

I See Amway Doom And Gloom!
2 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.
Your Amway Platinum sounds like he was a first-class asshole.
ReplyDeleteOne thing that is frequently noticeable in small-town schmucks who manage to get a small bit of authority -- they love to pose as experts on everything. The ladle out advice everywhere, to anyone who will listen.
The Platinum's habit of jawboning about all the bad things happening in the world was purely to get his IBOs frightened. This was to insure that they would stay loyal to him (and the Amway racket), and at the same time give them a sense of their own superiority and special wisdom. They truly believe the absurdity that everybody else will be broke at 65, while Amway IBOs will be financially secure.
Anonymous - he sure was. But he was no bigger an asshole than any other Platinum out there judging by all the complaints I hear about these little Hitlers.
DeleteAmway losers are always trying to scare prospects into joining the Amway cult. And once they're devoted followers of the Great Amway God the Amway cult leaders continue to keep the IBO's frightened. The world will collapse if they quit ScAmway that sort of thing. They're all a bunch of assholes trying to destroy other people's lives while keeping them loyal by preaching that Amway puts an invisible shield around its followers so that they won't be dead of broke by age 65. Many cults keep their followers in line by "predictions" of doomsday and only their loyal few will survive the end of the world.
