Dishonesty. I did a post about those lines a few months ago. <br /><br />Usually the upline finds something to use against the IBO and accuses them that's why they're not making money in Amway. Remember the upline wants to know EVERYTHING when you "counsel" with them. They use your dreams against you and accuse the IBO that their dream wasn't big enough. Usually they blame the IBO's spouse and tell them to get out of the relationship. I don't know why they get such pleasure out of destroying relationships but that's the Amway way.<br /><br />Merchants of Deception is an incredible book. I found out about it and read it and was shocked to find the truth that most of the money is made from tools and really only available to those who make Diamond. Emeralds and Diamonds make less than a quarter of 1% of all IBO's. Its a nearly impossible feat. About 2 months after I read it I managed to convince my husband to read it and he said it answered a lot of his questions that his Platinum had refused to answer or brushed him off. Never question upline!<br /><br />I often include the link to a free download of the book http://www.transgallaxys.com/~emerald/DOWNLOADBOOK.html<br /><br />Amway is on an equal scale of evil as Hitler, Jim Jones, and Charles Manson.

How can the IBO "for...You're right, Anna. How can the IBO "forget" those promises when they are trained to use those same lies to lure in new recruits (fresh meat) for the upline to pick their bones dry, too.<br /><br />As you said, they make each IBO think that they are the one exception to the rule, the only one who is losing money because they aren't doing enough. They aren't working hard enough, they aren't "positive" enough (i.e. brainwashed enough). <br /><br />This is why they don't allow crosslining. That would give IBO's a chance to "compare notes" with someone on their own level and thus possibly find out "You mean you are losing money, too? I thought I was the only one".<br /><br />The "fake it til you make it" is not only to deceive potential new recruits, it's used to fake each other out, too. I'm currently reading the book "Merchants of Deception" (one can google it and download a free readable pdf file of it). In it the author reaches Emerald only to discover on his first check from Amway... little has changed. He is far from the promised $100,000 level Emeralds supposedly were to receive. In fact, barely scraping by. And yet, at the next seminar he and his wife were paraded out amongst the group of the "newly rich Amway Emeralds" as their downline cheered and fed into the hope that they, too, will be "rich" like that someday.<br /><br />The book is a fascinating look into the power of brainwashing, and that it isn't only "dumb, weak-minded" people who get sucked into it. It comes in small steps that build.<br /><br />Like religious cults, they invoke the name of "God", passages from the bible, concepts like "family" and "integrity", and like the wolf in sheep's clothing, are ready to devour the honest, sincere sheep that wander into their trap.<br /><br />Amway is about as evil as it gets. The "greatest opportunity" to lose everything that you have... and be brainwashed to thank them for it.<br /><br />~DaveAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2623443549536997676.post-91785905917919814972011-07-12T19:55:53.972-07:002011-07-12T19:55:53.972-07:00Dave - the IBO probably doesn't forget those l...Dave - the IBO probably doesn't forget those lies though they've been brainwashed to believe its the truth. They think they are the reason they haven't got 100k or walking the beaches of the world is because whatever reason their upline has told them it's their fault. Like in our case Ambot would never succeed in Amway was because of me. They are very quick to point fingers and put negative thoughts into their downline's head but they will never admit the Amway system is designed for failure.<br /><br />Get poor quickly.Anna Bananahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05373457126465029723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2623443549536997676.post-58699564713220470702011-07-12T19:19:44.391-07:002011-07-12T19:19:44.391-07:00It's funny how quickly the new recruits forget...It's funny how quickly the new recruits forget all the original "promises" when they don't materialize. <br />"Work only 10 - 15 hours a week in your spare time!"<br />"Make over $100,000 in a short period of time!"<br />"In 2 - 5 years you'll be a millionaire walking the beaches of the world and living off residual income for the rest of your life!"<br /><br />And yet, the reality is that 99.9% of these IBOs will find themselves either making very little money after years and years of hard work or, worse still (and more likely), be deeply in debt, lose their home and/or marriage. <br /><br />No matter how near-impossible mathematically the carrot Amway dangles is to actually reach, no matter how many hours and miles traveled the IBO puts into it, no matter how closely they follow their upline's "advice", no matter how many "tools" or seminars they throw money into as the upline tells them they are VITAL to their success... when they still find themselves hovering at poverty level, the brainwashing teaches them that it is THEIR fault. The Amway master is NEVER at fault. Amway is infallible. Despite the almost 100% failure rate of the so-called "greatest opportunity", they are told the "system" is flawless. <br /><br />But, like all mind-control, reality is twisted and they believe what they are told by the cult leaders as those same leaders drain their finances dry with endless tools and "must attend" seminars, each promising to hold the "final answer" to making those millions. Of course, they are all the same smoke and mirrors bullshit, whose only purpose is to further milk money from the sheep for the rich diamonds and keep the brainwashing fresh.<br /><br />Amway is the near 100% way to "Get Poor Quickly or Slowly". Pick your poison.<br /><br />~DaveAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2623443549536997676.post-19358409038577870962011-07-11T17:43:42.939-07:002011-07-11T17:43:42.939-07:00The only thing that we got quick out of Amway was ...The only thing that we got quick out of Amway was into debt! <br /><br />Amway is a scam!Anna Bananahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05373457126465029723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2623443549536997676.post-88789875890300630752011-07-11T16:08:37.228-07:002011-07-11T16:08:37.228-07:00Of course they (upslime) wants you to dream and th...Of course they (upslime) wants you to dream and think you can get rich quick. But they are clever enough to say get rich slow to avoid the thought that "if it seems too good to be true", it must be a scam.Joecoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09121920263105613498noreply@blogger.com
