Thanks to one of our readers who shares attending Amway Scheme Night put on by WWDB World Wide Destructive Bastards:
I went with a friend to ‘Dream
Night’ where I was introduced to WWDB and Amway. I had heard of Amway of
course, but not WWDB. Before Dream Night I had asked my friend about this
business he keeps on talking about on Facebook, and what kind of ‘entrepreneur’
he is going to be. He would not tell me exactly what it was he was doing at the
time and so I immediately got skeptical. I wanted to see what the heck this
stuff was all about so I went to 3 plan meetings following ‘Dream Night’. It
was all the same presentation with the same jokes. I also attended one ‘Night
Owl’ which is what they call the training sessions that occur after the plan
meetings. There was no training. I was hoping to see legit business numbers, or
hear about small things you can do to improve profit, or marketing... yadda
yadda ( you know the stuff you actually learn in SCHOOL... would ya look at
that! ). There are a few points I think were good about the meetings and these
are them;
1. Be motivated to do something with your life if you are unhappy with it and
need something to change. Don’t sit on your butt, make it happen. (if WWDB and
Amway is it for you, good luck)
2. Keep your eyes wide open and make your own opinions. That goes for seeing
through the Amway transparency and repetitive ‘teachings’ as well.
I originally was excited by the idea of being able to ‘be free’ and spend all
my time with my son in 2-5 years if I put in the work now... blah blah,
something that you will hear over and over and over again. But then, I got
tired of the mentality they also say that if you don’t do this business your an
idiot. Well really?, if what might be right for you isn’t right for someone
else they are an idiot? Because they won.t ‘be free’ in 5 years and are stuck
in a job pyramid? OKAY THEN. It’s just superficial nonsense to act like there
is no judgement and only love within the organization, and the next you are an
idiot. Or you aren’t working hard and growing your business because you haven’t
been going to all of these meetings and functions.
Also a HUUUUUGE negative, when a ‘mentor’ tells you to hold off on a bill you
need to pay so that you can put some $ into buying into amway, or buying a
ticket to a function, or the monthly fee of WWDB.... No actual positive mentor
would tell you to do things like this. Instead what should be happening is
someone who is financially educated ( back to that learning thing in school
again ) should sit down with you and figure out your budget and what you can
and can’t afford and help you live within your means.
Another strange thing... the term IBO, Independent Business Owner. “INDEPENDANT”....
So why are you having to ask for additions and removals from an upline if this
is YOUR business? And how are you an entrepreneur if you are following a
business within an organization. I thought the term was more geared for people
who are starting business with new and fresh ideas.
I could go on. I am choosing not to do Amway, and it has nothing to do with the
products ( I actually like a few). It has EVERYTHING to do with the WWDB
organization and how they are an uneducated facet to recruiting. Honestly
anyone with a little business know-how can make themselves successful without
WWDB!
End note: If information is not direct and open, and questions you ask get
tiptoed around... it’s likely to be a waste of money.

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. There's over 1000 spam comments left here each month. We don't check them. We just delete them. If your comment landed in spam - sucks to be you!
