Like any cult, they can suck in university educated professionals for the bragging rights and to give themselves what they perceive to be credibility. And then ambots go around insulting anyone who does have higher education like what a bunch of dumb fucks you are spending all that money on education when you could have signed up with Amway for $100 and got started in your own business. Delusional? Absolutely! As you noticed the Amway cult does prey on immigrants and scams them into believing they'll be rolling in riches after 2 years in Amway.

This is a slippery slope, and courts nowadays, especially in my state of Colorado, are very sensitive to protection of elderly persons' personal autonomy, and draw a bright line between the concept of "incapacity" and "diminished capacity" - there is a substantial difference. Elderly or not, people make unwise decisions about Amway every day, no? <br /><br />---DanielAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2623443549536997676.post-54083762408889893692012-07-19T14:51:14.807-07:002012-07-19T14:51:14.807-07:00Here's how it goes.

You make a bonus off your points from YOUR effort, and make cash from retail from YOUR effort. Then you spend that in the worldwide organization for books, cd's, membership and functions. And guess what? That money that YOU earned now gets dispersed to the uplines, for something they didn't do. For YOUR effort and time to earn it. Amway isn't the evil one, it's worldwide. Amway pays you, wwdb TAKES it. In summary: at your job, your boss pays you a paycheck with a positive profit. In worldwide you pay the upline..

Amway sales-reps are ‘investing’ to belong to a popularity club. When all you want in life is to be adored for no reason at all, to be praised, and for someone to hand you a reward without merit, then I guess you deserve what you get with Amway!

Sorry to hear about your mother gett...Hi Anonymous. Sorry to hear about your mother getting brainwashed into the Amway scam cult.<br /><br />They all say they're learning something and they're taking training on how to be business owners which is a bunch of bullshit. No useful training happens at Amway meetings. Just instructions on buying more shitty overpriced Amway products and buying tickets to more Amway meetings.<br /><br />The Internet has become Amway's worst enemy even though they now call themselves an online store or online business opportunity. Since the late 90's when people started getting online people have been getting the word out how they lost money in Scamway. Ambots will argue that those people didn't try hard enough and that they're losers who lost sight of their dream. But no. They're just normal people who probably wanted to try to make a better life for themselves and their family and lost money to this pyramid scheme and want to warn others to stay away.<br /><br />My blog is a bit different. I don't talk about the piss poor business opportunity as much as I talk about the assholes I met in Amway and the abuse and the lies they told. Then others show up at my blog and said they heard/witnessed the same thing. <br /><br />WWDB = World Wide Destructive Bastards. They destroy people's relationships and destroy their finances.<br /><br />I'm not sure how old your mother is but there are heartbreaking stories on the Internet about seniors throwing away their life savings at Amway with the false promise that in 2 to 5 years they'll have bazillions of dollars rolling in each month in residual income in exchange for their meager investment of $1000/month. Its no different than when you hear on the news about seniors being bilked out of their retirement savings due to those phony lottery scams where they have to send in money as an administration fee in order to get the big bucks.<br /><br />If you haven't already read it I recommend you download a free copy of Merchants of Deception to better understand this cult your mother has got involved in.<br /><br />http://www.transgallaxys.com/~emerald/<br /><br />Also it wouldn't hurt to talk to a lawyer. Perhaps you can get your mother declared mentally incompetent due to her involvement in the Amway cult and have the courts give you control of her finances. <br /><br />Ask your mother for a copy of the Amway compensation plan or overview or whatever its called that they have to give out potential recruits. Look for the small print where it says the percentage of people who actually make whatever salary it is Amway is currently using. The number will bee less than 1% like .0736% or whatever I don't know off the top of my head. Try to pound that point into your mother's head. Over 99% failure rate in Amway.<br /><br />Does your mother tape Amway meetings? Get ahold of one of the recordings probably a meeting run by a Platinum. He'll have all kinds of lies in there. Bragging about his income and probably bragging about Amway the corporation's assets. A lawyer might be of better help but you might be able to press fraud charges.<br /><br />The only way to make money in Amway is if you're a very good salesperson and have lots of customers. And if you're that a good a salesperson you're wasting your talents in Amway. There are other places with a much higher commission compensation plan. The other way is to be one of the people who make money selling the motivational materials the ambots purchase - CD's, books, and tickets to Amway functions and meetings.<br /><br />And that's where its at. Only a small percentage of Amway cult followers reach a level where they speak at Amway meetings and they earn a speaking fee for doing so. <br /><br />Good luck to you!Anna Bananahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05373457126465029723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2623443549536997676.post-89837481324641665152012-07-18T00:18:38.713-07:002012-07-18T00:18:38.713-07:00Hello, my mother joined Amway a year and a half ag...Hello, my mother joined Amway a year and a half ago, and those greedy assholes brainwashed her into believing that Amway is good. I tried my best to convince her, but it's too late now. She's been to their scam conventions and meetings, and she's telling me that she's "learning" something. We argued often about this, but every time we argue, she's becoming more and more brainwashed. I told her to look at BOTH the positive(if any) and negative aspects of Amway. She told me she is going to ignore all the bad/negative things people say about it. I told her about how it's not going to work, and told her I've even looked it up. Her argument is that my only proof is the internet. *Facedesk* When I asked her what her proof was, she says she gets proof from the "experts" Amway calls in for their scamcons/meetings. Every time I am introduced to her Amway "friends", the only thing I hear is something about their company, and how "good" and "charitable" they are. These people break family bonds and friendship. I pity those who are brainwashed, and hope that they will get out of the scam soon...as for those who know what they are actually doing, I hope that they will get their asses handed to them by karma.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2623443549536997676.post-39002044169169946072012-07-17T18:28:54.725-07:002012-07-17T18:28:54.725-07:00Dave - tell your brother to pay extra attention to...Dave - tell your brother to pay extra attention to ambots from Irvine California!Anna Bananahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05373457126465029723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2623443549536997676.post-84195071676881978052012-07-17T18:27:22.982-07:002012-07-17T18:27:22.982-07:00Nancy - that dumb ass anonymous ambot has been bra...Nancy - that dumb ass anonymous ambot has been brainwashed to repeat what his cult leaders say and to hate jobs.

Because, you know, with only a 0.6% chance of ever making a decent profit in Amway, that is far more likely a scenario than the ratio of people being fired or laid off. <br /><br />Whew, talk about Amspeak. You practically are reading off word for word the brainwashing they put in the CD's or spout at the meetings.<br /><br />~Dave<br /><br />P.S. Hope you never get audited by the IRS.

Its not like the one they just had was the only job in the world. Are you so fucking dense that you don't get that? People find other jobs all the time.<br /><br />No, not all busines owners want to know why people sit in a cube. In fact I'd say very few business owners give that a thought. I'm a business owner and I sure don't wonder why people sit in a cube, stand behind a cash register, serve food, or whatever. That's a job people have at this point in their lives. Eventually they'll move on to something else if they so desire. Re-read my last paragraph where I said its not the only job in the world.<br /><br />Some people are self sufficient and others aren't. I don't judge people or think any less of them if they require government assistance. But then I'm not an ambot who goes around sneering at people who have jobs and sneering at everyone who is not part of the Amway cult.<br /><br />Thanks for showing up and proving what I wrote is true and that ambots hate their jobs, hate people who have jobs, and teach hatred to jobs.<br /><br />You have quoted Amspeak straight off the stage.
