Amway Ambots Hate Their Jobs and Teach Others to do the Same

One of the things I heard at Amway meetings was how simple the business was. All you had to do was eat one Amway food bar and one Amway beverage daily and teach others to do the same thing.

Well not that simple because nobody likes to eat nasty tasty shitty products that are priced through the roof. Unless they’re an ambot brainwashed to believe that they actually taste good and are good for you. Hell. Caramel coated cardboard tastes better than Amway food bars!

Amway is all about teaching others to do the same thing you’re doing. Usually referred to as duplicating your upline.

At every Scamway meeting the sack of shit Platinum would sneer at people who had jobs. J.O.B. Just Over Broke. People who were employed by others and held jobs were held in lowest contempt because they weren’t big and important business owners like Amway (pretend) business owners.

According to the sack of shit Platinum after people had been in Amway for a couple of years they could quit their job and sit back on their asses and watch the big bucks coming rolling in every month in residual income.

Freedom! Something that none of those poor fuckers who held jobs would ever know about.

Or the Platinum either because after 15 years or so he still works a much hated job. He hates his job so he is all about teaching others to hate their jobs too.

The Platinum cult leader would roll the noses of the followers into the big shithole known as a job. Making a living working for someone else and getting paid for it. And on and on it would go. How jobs are horrible evil things that only lowly bastards have. People with jobs have to set their alarm clock and get up every day and take orders from someone else. And then when they turn 65 they automatically either die or are broke.

And what about the people in the room who ran their own business. Ambot was usually the only one but there were a couple of other guys in crossline who might be at some of the Amway cult meetings we attended. It must have pissed off the sack of shit Platinum to no end when he asked how many in the room earned 75 or 100k the fictional amount you can make in Amway at Platinum or Emerald level and the people who already owned their own businesses were the only takers. So now the sack of shit Amway Platinum must poison the minds of the business owners and mock them for their choice of business and how hard they work and blah blah blah Amway brainwashing bullshit.

The Platinum sneers at them how they could be so stupid to own another kind of business when the best business for anyone to own is Amway. Well OK maybe for the people who actually own the Amway company thats a good business to own but not for the commissioned salespeople Amway hires and barely pays to flog their overpriced shitty products with a phony ass title of Independent Business Owner.

When we were in Amway a lot of people who attended cult meetings were unemployed. Other IBO’s became unemployed during the time we were inside this hellhole cult.

They’d been brainwashed to hate their jobs, hate their bosses, and hate their coworkers. A person who shows up at work everyday hating everything about it is not pleasant to deal with. Ambots sneer at everyone in the workplace because they’re a bunch of dumb fucker employees and don’t own their own business. Well neither does the Amway asshole! Amway IBO is a pretend business where they earn a measly $10 commission if they buy $300 worth of Amway products every month buying from their own store. Most jobs employees earn $10/hour and they probably don’t have to buy anything to earn that $10!

Because ambots are brainwashed to become insufferable Amway assholes and they bring their shitty attitude to the workplace they don’t stick around too long. They either quit because they don’t want to keep working with these losers who won’t support their business or the boss gives them the old heave ho.

What about when the ambots descend on a prospect who has a job. They’ll ask the person if they like their job. Some people like their job others don’t. Hit or miss. I’d say the people who don’t like their job are probably looking for another one and maybe they are open to going to a Scamway meeting to hear more about this once in a lifetime opportunity bullshit. Others will stand their ground and say they like their job. The ambot will sneer at them incredulous that someone could actually like their job. And then because Amway ambots are dumb fucks they’ll probably make some dumb ass comment like would you still work your job if you didn’t get paid for it. Uh what do you think you dumb ass ambot. If I don’t get paid I am like fuck you I am outta here! Most people do not stick around at a job no matter how much they like it if they don’t get paid. Not to mention thats a violation of employment laws pretty much everywhere!

Just because Amway ambots are brainwashed to hate their jobs doesn’t mean everyone else shares their shitty attitude.

Can You Get Someone Out of Amway?

Every day my blog gets visitors who are searching for how to get someone out of Amway. Lately I’ve had a few people leave comments about how to get a friend or family member out of Amway.

Unfortunately there is no one size fits all answer for how to get someone out of Amway. This is an evil cult. The Amway commissioned salespeople are built up to think that they are big important business owners and are given this dumb fuck title called IBO = Independent Business Owner. The IBO attends countless Amway meetings where they are supposedly given business advice but instead are actually brainwashing sessions.

And yes I know because I was dragged into many Amway cult meetings. No concrete business advice is ever given. No information on getting yourself registered as a business, getting tax numbers, getting a business bank account, getting a business license, getting business insurance, writing a business plan, creating a profit and loss statement, etc, etc. Some “business advice” given at Amway meetings is to buy from your own store and buy tickets to the next Amway function. Don’t have anything to do with people who won’t support your Amway business. I have a whole bunch more dumb ass “business advice” given at Amway meetings such as don’t dress like a slut but I’m not going over them now.

Oh wait lets not forget this piece of business advice that I have only heard in Amway not in any other business. You must ask permission from the Amway upline before you do anything or buy anything. Cult cult cult cult cult!!!!!!

Because the Amway cult tells you to shun your family and friends people in Amway become your only friends. The only people who can be trusted. The only people who have your best interests at heart. Amway cult leaders brainwash their followers to stay away from “negative” people - that would be everyone who does not want to sign up with the Amway cult or buy shitty overpriced Amway products.

The Amway cult follower has new friends and spends hours with them every night loving and worshipping their Amway cult leader. To please their cult leader they have to buy everything they’re told to buy: premier membership to WWDB, Communikate voice mail, tickets to Amway functions, CD’s, books, and anything else for sale that will make the upline rich.

If they’re a good little ambot the Amway cult leader will lavish praise and attention on them and highlight them at the next Scamway meeting. If they’re bad and miss a meeting or don’t buy enough shit the cult leader will punish them with a fire and brimstone rant and ridicule and mock them at the next Scamway meeting.

But how do you get someone out of Amway? Unfortunately all you can usually do is let the brainwashed ambot dig their own grave. Once they max out their credit cards and drain their bank account they can’t keep tithing the great Amway god. They probably are facing foreclosure, bankruptcy, maybe divorce. When they stop listening to brainwashing CDs and attending cult meetings their mind starts to clear. And they quit. Usually happens inside a year, maybe two years. Any longer than that inside the Amway cult the person is usually a lifer.

I’ve had a few desperate visitors leave comments asking how to get their loved one out and there really is no answer but here are links to resources that might help.

Merchants of Deception is a free ebook written by former Emerald Eric Scheibeler. He talks about the brainwashing and how he only earned about $35,000/year when he was at a level where he expected to be earning at least 100k based on Amway propaganda and what he’d heard from Diamond speakers. He uncovered the real money to be made in Amway was the sale of motivational materials - books, tapes/CDs, and speaking at functions. Its a really chilling read at times. Everything he said about Amway meetings I heard the same thing too. I could have been there. What he described was what I’d experienced. And most importantly he tells how 99% of IBOs will never make money in Amway. Reading it shows the lies that were told to us were the same lies he heard and the realization that no matter how hard we tried to make money at Amway, it just ain’t possible.

A few years ago NBC Dateline exposed the Amway scam. They covered the brainwashing and showed scenes at arenas that show this cult in action. They catch IBO’s lying - not that that’s difficult! They all lie! The above author Eric Scheibeler is interviewed for this TV show.

What Happens When You Don’t Pay Amway

I seem to be having a lot of fun lately with search criteria that people use to show up at my blog.

One of my recent searchers wants to know “what happens when you don’t pay Amway”

First off not paying Amway is a very good thing because that means you aren’t getting scammed out of your money buying substandard products for a premium price.

Amway is only your friend as long as you shop in their store.

No shop. No friends no more!

I would say the answer is as simple as any online retailer you shop from. Don’t pay them and they won’t send you the goods you put in your shopping cart.

Also the same as the annual membership fee Amway charges you for the “privilege” gag gag of shopping in their store. Don’t pay your annual fee you don’t get to shop there. And some fat cat at Amway has a little less money in their bank account.

Costco is the same way. Don’t pay your annual membership fee and the bouncer standing at the door at Costco don’t let you in.

I would say its a very good thing when you don’t pay Amway. That means you quit doing business with them and you’re not getting ripped off anymore.

I encourage everyone not to pay Amway!

Can Gay Men Join World Wide Dream Builders?

A Google search brought someone to my blog looking for the answer to “can gay men join World Wide Dream Builders”.

World Wide Dream Builders also known as WWDB is one of Amway’s cult organizations. It is a very abusive organization and extremely strict with the IBO’s who are unfortunate enough bastards to sign up with this shitty group.

WWDB = World Wide Destructive Bastards. They are only out to destroy other peoples lives.

Ask the Amway upline to tell you about any married gay couple or any gay couple in a committed relationship who are Amway Diamonds. None? Then go down the phony stone list and see if the upline can name any gay couple who have reached any significant level in Scamway.

I am fairly certain that Amway the corporation and WWDB the corporation are not going to tell any gay men or women they can not sign up to be Amway IBO’s. They’re equal opportunity scammers. They’ll take money from anyone! In this day and age most companies aren’t dumb enough to discriminate against someone due to their sexual orientation or they will be slapped with a lawsuit. Does Amway need more lawsuits! Hell yes!

For all I know WWDB or Amway might have been sued for sexual orientation discrimination before but if they were I don’t know about it. That’s why they hire very good attorneys to keep them barely on the right side of the law. Or pay off those they abuse.

So the short answer is yes gay men can join World Wide Dream Builders but at what cost. It will be an extremely uncomfortable experience for them. In addition to losing money, wasting time, and having relationships destroyed, gay men will be subjected to humiliation by the Amway cult leaders.

When I attended Amway cult meetings our sack of shit Platinum occasionally went off on rants about gays and states and countries that allow gay marriages. Sucks to be an Amway ambot and live where gay marriages are legal! During the Amway cult meetings the undertone was there: being homosexual is evil.

Gay men and women are not welcome in the Amway cult!

Though ambots won’t come out and say that. Remember they want to scam everyone out of their money.

At WWDB Amway cult meetings the cult leaders preach what makes a traditional Amway couple family. That would be heterosexual relationships where the man is the head of the household and the dutiful wife stays at home and caters to her husband’s every whim and they should have some well behaved obedient children.

Not once did I ever see a gay couple on the stage at any Amway function or rally.

There was one single gay man in our WWDB Amway group. He told us that he had to give his computer to the sack of shit Platinum who had someone put parental blockers on it so he was unable to access gay websites. It became a game to him to see if he could hack into them afterwards. I mean if a guy wants to look on the Internet at other gay men its none of the fucking Platinum’s business anyway.

To further humiliate this ambot he had to “counsel” with the sack of shit Platinum about being gay. Sack of shit Platinum “counselled” with him that the reason he was not going big in Amway and making lots of money is because he is gay and he will have to change that if he wants to make it in Amway. Sack of shit Platinum was “counselling” him to date women or magically become straight. Sack of shit Platinum “counselled” him that being homosexual is evil.

Uh, no. The only evil things around here is Amway, WWDB, and the fucking assholes in the Amway upline.

So for anyone else Googling about whether or not Amway and WWDB accepts gay men into the organization they pretty much have to or else they’ll end up facing a discrimination lawsuit. However you won’t be made to feel very welcome because Amway assholes can’t mind their own business. You will face some sort of humiliation in Amway WWDB. So weigh it out. Is joining the WWDB Amway cult worth losing money, destroying relationships, and being subjected to the humiliation of being told that gay is evil and counselling with upline to go straight or you’ll never make it big in Amway.

That is what really happens in the WWDB Amway cult.

Its a scam.

Its a religious cult. Amway WWDB has their own screwed up wacked out religion that they preach to their cult followers. Decide for yourself if you’re comfortable belonging to a cult that will mock people and put them down for any reason - including sexual orientation.

Now is a good time to send a big old fuck you out there to our sack of shit Platinum for the hell that he brings to other people’s lives.

Get it through your heads you fucking Amway assholes! Other peoples private personal lives are none of your fucking business!!!!

Amway IBOs Are Lousy Employees

I’ve been to enough Amway meetings where the Platinum or Diamond speaker shows contempt to anyone who has a job.

They sneer at people who have jobs. They put down people who have jobs. They criticize people who have jobs. They demand to know why IBO’s are still working for other people. How come their Amway business isn’t successful so that they can retire.

Amway cult leaders brainwash their followers into believing that J.O.B.s are evil and that nobody who is in Amway should suffer the injustice of working for an employer and make the boss richer. The Amway cult leaders go on and on and on why J.O.B.s should be hated, the boss should be hated, and the coworkers should be hated.

WWDB = World Wide Destructive Bastards and nothing brings the upline Amway assholes more happiness than destroying the lives of their cult followers. All part of the scheme to make them more dependent on the Amway cult leaders.

Soon the ambots duplicate their upline and sneer at people who have jobs and show contempt for people who work for someone else. These ambots hold down jobs themselves. In fact its how they can afford to be in the expensive Amway social club. When we were in Amway no one in our WWDB line other than ourselves owned their own business or were self-employed and very few crossline were self-employed.

Armed with the hateful things they have been brainwashed to think by their Amway cult leaders about people with J.O.B.s it doesn’t take long for their shitty attitude to infiltrate the workplace. Ambots criticize their co-workers and probably their boss because they’re all fucking morons for having a J.O.B. and working for someone else instead of themselves. They probably start complaining about how much they hate their job and they can’t wait until they’re finally free, thanks to Amway.

Better keep your mouths shut or that day might come sooner than you think! And you won’t be financially free when it does!

No workplace needs a fucking Amway IBO bringing the moral down and pissing off the other employees who have to listen to the Amway drunken IBO spout off their brainwashed bullshit.

I was amazed at the number of ambots in our line and crossline who became unemployed. I could certainly understand why their employers didn’t want to keep them around because all ambots have this brainwashed “J.O.B.s Suck” attitude. I never saw any of them find another J.O.B. while we were still in Amway and most unemployed ambots resorted to taking odd jobs wherever they could find them.

One of our friends found out when he hired an ambot that the bastard didn’t get much work done but wanted to be paid top dollar just for showing up and spending huge amounts of time on his cell phone, calls and texts. If that wasn’t bad enough he brought a boom box and blasted out the latest Amway CD from his tools order. That job didn’t last long for him!

I wouldn’t hire that bastard again either!

But then I wouldn’t have hired him in the first place! Never hire an Amway IBO! Their work ethic SUCKS!!!

Then there’s an ambot from Edmonton who showed up on my blog the other day to leave a comment that he can’t wait to be “free” thanks to Amway so he will no longer have to suffer putting up with his coworkers who are all a bunch of assholes. I bet his boss would love to know that! Not to mention knowing that his employee is fucking around surfing the Internet on a government issued computer for an hour (maybe longer, just an hour on my blog) instead of getting his work done. Yup Alberta taxpayers dollars hard at work at this government office.

This is exactly the type of attitude towards J.O.B.s that ambots are brainwashed by Amway’s cult leaders that often puts them out of work very quickly. Ambots have the attitude that working a J.O.B. is soooooo beneath them but out of the goodness of their hearts they will show up to bless their boss and their coworkers with their presence but you better not expect them to actually do any work while they’re there. Oh they still want the boss to pay them for showing up but they’ll be too busy conducting Amway business to get anything else done.

Is that whole showing up routine. Like when you show up at an Amway meeting and the sack of shit Platinum tells everyone they are winners just by virtue of showing up. And if they religiously show up for the next two to five years then they will become rich beyond their wildest dreams and Amway will send them gazillions of money just because they showed up.

I would never hire an IBO for any job for the reasons I’ve already listed. They’re negative toward work, they waste too much time on the phone of Internet, they want to crank the volume on Amway CD’s, and they have a bad attitude. You pay somebody to get a job done you want them to do the work and not fuck around with texting, phone calls, surfing the Internet, recruiting prospects, selling Amway shit, blasting Amway motivational CD’s, and otherwise being annoying.

Lazy ass ambots need not apply!

Ambots Cheating on Their Significant Others

Due to a couple of recent comments about how the Amway cult continues to destroy lives I thought I’d revist a post I wrote over a year ago.

I started writing Married To An Ambot as kind of a healing process for me to curse out my former upline and get the word out about what happens at Amway meetings and the upline abuse. In doing so I was hoping to reach out to other women who are in similar situations or were at one time. Our stories might have some differences but they are the same. I was involved with upline who I feel to this day are truly horrible, evil troublemakers. If I help other women get their husbands/boyfriends out of Amway and away from their destructive upline, then writing this blog is all worth it.

Usually it is our husbands who are approached by a friend who tells them about an amazing business opportunity. A home based business where they work 10 to 15 hours a week and can earn an extra $800 a month or more (!) by selling Amway products and signing up other IBO’s who will also purchase Amway products and sign up others to do the same, and so on and so on. At first the wife might be sceptical. You know the old phrase about how if it sounds too good to be true it probably is. The numbers look good on paper but in actuality it doesn’t seem believable that this can this be pulled off. The old saying about if it was really this easy then everyone would be doing it and making money comes to mind.

When our husbands get excited about something we want to be supportive. It doesn’t take long before we stop being supportive and end up getting more and more pissed off. Husband is sneaking around like he has a mistress on the side. And sure enough he does. A mistress called Amway. He’s out of the house for endless hours attending Amway meetings sneaking back in the house in the early morning hours after we’ve gone to sleep. He’s spending money like crazy on his mistress. Money he doesn’t have so he uses a line of credit, home equity loan, or credit cards. You know when he whips out the plastic he pretends he’s not really paying for it. After all it is a pretend business. That is until the bills roll in and then paying back real money you owe is not so pretend any more.

After awhile the wife has had enough. She never sees her husband and their bank account is diminishing while their debt is going through the roof. “Choose your mistress or choose me.” Fortunately most men come to their senses and realize for all their hard work, time, and effort they are not getting the money back that was dangled in front of them when they were first looking into this exciting business opportunity and they stop going to Amway meetings and throwing away their money.

That’s the short version of every wife’s horror tale about their husband’s Amway mistress.

I was lucky that my Ambot came to his senses. This was because he’d had enough of the upline’s abuse and his realization that the promised money just was not there. He left his Amway mistress. All the people who promised to be his good friends forever and ever abandoned him. That might have been the hardest thing. He actually liked these people and thought they liked him. Wrong. They only liked his money because he was helping make their dreams come true.

Holding An Amway Grand Opening

Seeing as how I get lots of people doing searches on how to do an Amway grand opening and end up at my blog I thought I should write another post about our grand opening for new readers.

The first time I heard the term “grand opening” was when this arrogant prick friend of my husband’s that I have never liked was holding an Amway grand opening and Ambot wanted to stop by the bastard’s house because we were out in the area that day and the bastard was having a BBQ. Though thinking back maybe whatever else we were doing that day was just a ruse to get us in that part of town so we could support his grand opening. I probably said something to the effect what a fucking loser that asshole is for getting involved in Amway and I warned my husband not to buy any of that useless overpriced Amway shit. We got there and I wasn’t impressed with anything but some could say that would probably be mostly due to the fact that I can’t stand the asshole and would never be impressed with anything he’s got going on. My husband poured me an XS energy drink, I think cranberry. I took a sip and told him it tasted like cat piss. I think he was drinking root beer XS so I tried that and told him it tasted like toothpaste that a cat had pissed on. They had a bunch of shitty Amway products on display. I told his wife that we’d been involved in Amway before and hadn’t made any money and we couldn’t persuade anyone we knew to come to Amway meetings or buy any of the shit.

What I didn’t know was that the Amway cult leaders had already started brainwashing my husband. Unfortunately Ambot didn’t learn his lesson the first time around. How’s that quote go? Those who don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat it. We were doomed to lose more money thanks to his fucking asshole friend and the Amway cult. Except this time was the sheer evil horror of the Amway cult that also brought with it emotional distress because of the horrible evil fucking assholes that were in our Amway WWDB upline. That horror didn’t happen the first time so this was what they meant when they talked about how Amway had changed since the first time we’d been in. Amway now meant dealing with horrible evil scum of the earth greedy bastards out to destroy relationships of anyone who didn’t submit to the Amway cult leaders.

The assholes in our upline said we must hold a “grand opening” as soon as possible after getting started in our Amway business so everyone would know that we were Amway distributors (how embarrassing is that to admit!) and could order products from us. This was also the time to sign up new IBO’s who were interested in starting their own business. Let’s see. Our circle of friends hasn’t changed much in the past 10 years. The people Ambot bugged the last time around in Amway who weren’t interested were the same ones he’d be harrassing again.

We chose a date and decided to hold a BBQ at our house. Amway does not sell stuff normal people would have at a BBQ - hamburgers, buns, condiments, salad, cake, ice cream, etc. Seeing as how Ambot had high expectations of a huge crowd off we went to Costco to stock up for the BBQ.

Grocery bill tally for the BBQ Grand Opening - about $150.

We printed up invitations and gave them out to a lot of people including all neighbors. Ambot actually knocked on doors and spoke with the neighbors and handed them an invitation. He also sniped a few people who happened to be walking past our house while we were outside gardening.

The grand opening was an afternoon event from 1pm to 5pm. Our first guest showed up around 1. He had other plans so was just planning to grab a burger, take a look at some of the Amway products, and hear a little bit about the business.

Actually this fellow was about as close as we ever got to signing up a downline with the exception of the one friend who signed up and then quit a couple of weeks later. This fellow came to a board plan and was interested and liked the IBO’s and their fakey nicey nice act. Then a mutual friend told him Amway was a scam and he backed off. Ambot was pissed off at our friend who had the gall to say Amway is a scam.

Funny how he agrees with that statement now!

Then it got quiet for a couple of hours. Ambot went into the house to watch TV. Things picked up closer to 4pm. Some of our hungry elderly neighbors were happy to come over for free food. One of them even noticed some of the products displayed on a table and triumphantly, disgustedly declared “this is Amway”. A neighbor and his kids came over too. The fellow had never heard of Amway so Ambot gave him a good run down on the business. He was sure he’d found a prospect. Wrong. They moved shortly after that.

Bottom line is as far as promoting the Amway business the grand opening was useless. Like everything else in Amway holding an Amway grand opening is a total waste of time and money. Fortunately most of the food we bought could be frozen or had a good enough shelf life that we were able to consume them later.

Some of the upline dropped by that evening and when they heard that the grand opening resulted in no prospects or customers they tried to get us to hold another grand opening as soon as possible. Nope. Never happened. We could have held a million Amway grand openings and the attendance and results wouldn’t have changed. This was exactly the same thing as happened when we were involved in Amway several years earlier. We invited everyone we knew and lot of people we didn’t know too and maybe a handful showed up for the free food and never resulted in any sales or signing up new IBO’s.

So to the people who keep showing up at my blog looking how to hold an “Amway grand opening” - don’t waste your time or money. Get out now before you face further embarrassment and financial losses and emotional distress.

Amway sucks!

WWDB = World Wide Destructive Bastards and its named that for a reason - it is out to destroy your relationships! WWDB sucks! STAY AWAY!!!!!

But what really sucks are the fucking assholes you’re forced to deal with in your WWDB upline. That is the worst thing about belonging to the Amway cult. The horrible evil people you meet and the way they treat you.

Ambots in Colombia?

Here’s a comment left on my Who Remembers Quixtar post.

Hi Anna,

I was searching for google for an Amway symbol and I found this page. I have read your posts and I see that you have a real bad image of Amway/Quixtar whatever. I really would like to discuss with you what your thoghts and your opinions are but without the bad words. I don´t know if you´ll respond me but I am going to make a request: whatever you criticise, you must at least not do it. You were talking about how Amway IBOs have a bad attitude and you were having it us well. Here in my country, all the ABOs who are succesful have good attitudes and respect everyone who doesn´t want to join because it´s a life choice, and also I haven´t met the first person who got robbed doing this. I´ve met people who thought it was too challenging or got out because they didn´t get results as fast as they wanted them, but a penny was never taken away. I know it because in my organization there are people who after buying 5k in products have returned them and gotten every cent back. So I´d like to discuss the subject with you if you are willing to have an open mind. And please stop giving it such a bad name. Life always gives you back what you give out, so I´d advise you to stop giving a bad name to the company, you don´t know when you are going to get paid with

 that same medicine.

Truthfully,
Manuel

Well Manuel, I hope you come back to read. I had enough to say to you that I didn’t want to leave it in the comments box in case it was missed and because I thought others might like to read this.

Searching for an Amway symbol and you found my blog? As if I need any further proof that Married To An Ambot is high on the search engines! Amway’s got somewhere in their terms and conditions that if you are an Amway IBO that you can not download and use any of their stuff unless you have their written permission because presumably you will be using the image to earn money.

If you’re not an IBO the rules don’t apply! Unless of course you’re using an Amway image to make money then Amway would want their piece of the pie - what else is new! Images that are put out on the public domain known as the Internet are up for grabs unless people are downloading them for commercial purposes to make money then the owner of said image would like to receive some payment. Manuel, don’t worry if you break Amway’s rules. Amway doesn’t give a shit if their IBO’s violate their policies. I’ve reported our upline and they didn’t do nothing. So I’m sure you will be quite safe to use any Amway symbol that you want even if someone reports you nothing will happen.

My blog exists mainly to curse out my Amway upline and seeing as how Amway’s employees are a reflection of the company itself they get dragged down too. Amway doesn’t do anything to clean up its act. Amway/Quixtar already had a bad reputation many years before I came on the scene!

No, I have no interest in talking to you or any other current brainwashed ambot. Its the equivalent of banging my head against the wall. You ambots have a canned Amspeak response for everything.

Me talk without “bad” words! Ha ha ha!!! You should be in a car with me and hear my running commentary of all the other drivers on the road! Yup I am probably the one who flipped you off!

You can request all you want that I shouldn’t criticize my upline or Amway but it won’t do you no good. I don’t know what the laws are in your country but here we have something called freedom of speech. It is not against the law to tell the truth or to have an opinion. Amway might not like that I tell the truth about what its like being in their cult and they might not be happy about my opinion on their overpriced shitty products but I am hardly the first person to come along and say similar things.

As for buying $5k in products and then returning them for a refund, you’re a little late to hop on that bus. Our upline and many IBO’s have been doing that for years for amounts between $5 and $25k. They buy as much stuff as they can on their credit card then return it and get a refund and then they show the check from Amway around to their downline and claim it was a bonus they got.

I have been to Colombia and I think it is sick and disgusting that this evil called Amway has infiltrated your country. There are so many poor people in Colombia and then an ambot comes along and tells them that Amway is their path out of poverty and it won’t happen for them because only a fraction of 1% of IBO’s make money in Amway. Its all about selling the hope not the soap. Your fellow citizens will be in worse shape than they were before and all because they believed a liar who told them that Amway would bring them riches. Amway is a recruiting scam pyramid scheme. I’m  not sure what kind of business plan they show in Colombia but here they show a plan where you eat one Amway food bar and drink one Amway drink daily and find 6 others to do what you do and they find 6 others and so on and so on. Nowhere in the business plan does it give instructions on finding customers and selling Amway products at retail prices. Pyramid scheme!

I have met the warmest people ever in Colombia always smiling and friendly and willing to speak a little slower so the gringa can understand. They will invite you to share a meal with them even if its all the food they have.

I have also encountered the most agressive vendors I’ve seen anywhere. I mean how many times can I tell the guy with the cooler no thank you I don’t want to buy a beer for $2. I don’t drink beer. I say it in English and Spanish and the guy still wants me to take a $2 cerveza off his hands. What about the vendor selling hats who follows me down the street trying to get me to buy one when clearly I am already wearing a hat on my head. I can imagine what it would be like if these vendors are out on the street selling Amway shit!

And now for my readers who haven’t traveled to Colombia, here is some reality for you. Many of this country’s citizens live in hovels constructed of whatever materials they are able to scrounge up and they live in communities in vacant lots, beside swampy canals, and in the jungle.

Some nicer living accomodations for the more wealthy.

The owner of this house must have some money. They can afford a fence and gate around their house.

Here’s a place to go if your car breaks down and you need a mechanic. Looks like there are some used tires for sale!

The owner of this fine eating establishment lost all his money in Amway and had to close!

Can’t afford an ambot shitmobile? Take a donkey to the Amway meeting. Some would call this a shitmobile too!

After looking at those pictures - how many of my readers think its likely that there are a lot of people in Colombia capable of putting together $5k to spend on Amway products - refund or not?

You signed off “truthfully” Manuel. Mentiras mentiras. There are only lies in Amway.

Similarities between Amway and Colombia? Both known for selling a white powder that ultimately brings misery to the lives it touches - financially, physically, and emotionally.

Is $75,000 the Magical Platinum Income?

When we attended Amway cult meetings our sack of shit Platinum sometimes asked who in the room earns at least $75,000/year.

It must have pissed him off to no end that my Ambot was the only person to raise his hand because he stopped asking that question after a few times of us attending his cult meetings. And it must have really pissed off that bastard that my husband makes more money than he does!

I think $75,000/year is the bragged about Platinum income, give or take a few thousand. Through research since I quit Amway I know that income can not be earned at the Platinum level. Nor the $125,000 an Emerald is supposed to earn, again give or take a few thousand depending on who is bragging about the money amount. I found this out by reading Eric Scheibeler’s book Merchants of Deception that as an Amway Emerald with a thousand people in his downline, he was only earning around $30,000/year, again give or take a few thousand. Also I saw a Youtube video of a former Emerald who said he only made between $2000 and $3000/month when he was with Scamway. He couldn’t afford to stick it out any longer in Amway and now makes a better income.

I doubt a Platinum can earn $75,000/year unless he’s running a lot of retail through his business which is nearly next to impossible to find regular customers willing to buy overpriced substandard Amway products.

So that “who makes $75,000/year” question probably brings another question to mind for everyone reading my blog. The same question that went through my mind.

Why in the hell would someone who already owns their own business and earns at least $75,000/year be interested in an Amway business and taking a cut in income?

I couldn’t figure out why my husband would want to shelf his legitimate business to get into a business where he makes less money a year. On a business built on a lies.

Fucking crazy!

Until I understood that my husband was being brainwashed by an evil cult.

And that’s when it became terrifying. The hold this evil cult has on its victims. Driven by greed. The Amway cult demands full control over their cult members money and their sanity.

How to be a Good Amway Cult Leader

Here are my observations based on observing our sack of shit Platinum on what qualities a person must possess if they want to be a good Amway Cult Leader.

If you don’t possess these qualities or unable to be coachable and learn them then Amway is a bad career choice. Well.....Amway is a bad choice all around no matter what your aspirations are!

1. Absolute dictatorship. This was mostly clear to me from our sack of shit Platinum who we heard speak more than we heard any other speaker, Emerald or Diamond. He demanded everyone in his downline to “ask permission” before doing anything. Constantly telling us to “submit to upline” and never question upline.
2. No accountability. Its OK to brag about your accomplishments, bank account, material possessions, business profits, etc but never show proof to anyone who asks. If anyone in your downline asks for proof fall back on “never question upline”.
3. Intolerance for questions. “Never question upline! Who do you think you are asking me something like that! Everything I say is the truth!”
4. Refusal to disclose financial information regarding budget, expenses such as an independently audited financial statement. Our sack of shit Platinum never showed us none of his financial information though he wanted to see all of ours.
5. Incite unreasonable fear about the world outside of Amway. Our Platinum was always preaching about impending catastrophe, evil conspiracies and all things negative. All the time! What else is out there except Amway? The answer to everyone’s prayers. Financial security for the rest of your life. Everyone else is doomed to have a J.O.B. and work for someone else.
6. Must be able to lecture long sermons about negativity. Negativity is the main topic at Amway meetings - doom and gloom, businesses shutting down, social security won’t be there when you retire, etc.
7. Must be good at insults, particularly mocking people who leave Amway. There is no legitimate reason to leave, not when success is right around the corner. Amway cult followers are always wrong in leaving and besides that they are also negative and evil. A good Platinum cult leader must ensure his cult followers understand that the people who leave Amway are quitters, losers, broke losers, negative, dream stealers, etc.
8. Promote ostracism. Ensure that IBO’s understand they are not allowed to associate with former friends who have quit the Amway cult.
9. Must be good at abusing cult followers. Hurling insults and then telling the ambot you are doing this for their own good and you still love them.
10. Must be good at destroying relationships. Platinums in the Amway cult must learn to separate the ambot from their friends and family.
11. Must be comfortable destroying other people’s finances, including but not limited to encouraging cult followers to run up credit card debt, take out line of credit or bank loans, telling them to skip mortgage payments so they can buy more Amway products or attend the next function, etc.
12. Good at inflicting emotional distress. This can be a combination of destroying marriages, causing bankruptcy, foreclosure, alienating cult followers from their friends and family, and anything else they can think of to cause unhappiness and stress in the lives of the cult followers.
13. Good at doling out punishment to cult followers who refuse to leave their wives or otherwise disobey the cult leader’s instructions.
14. Must always be RIGHT. No one is allowed to win an argument with the cult leader who is all knowing and always right. The news media and Internet are always wrong especially if they have different information than the Amway cult leader. The only one who knows the truth is the Amway cult leader. Everything and everyone else is wrong.
15. Able to control information as a means of brainwashing. Must be able to brainwash all cult followers to believe that the Amway cult leader is always telling the truth and the information must never be questioned. Do not believe any information from sources outside of Amway cult leaders. The cult leader must master the ability to control information in order to remove the cult follower’s ability to think for themselves.
16. Good at deception. Very important for promoting the Amway scam.
17. Ability to discredit an information source instead of debating the truth. Must excel at diversion techniques and character assassination techniques to distract cult followers from the truth.
18. Must have a huge ego and the ability to find many cult followers to stroke it.
19. Ability to use sleep deprivation as a means of brainwashing. This is done by keeping ambots at Amway cult meetings up to 1 or 2 or 3 in the morning until they are so tired that they’re willing to agree everything they hear at that hour is the truth.
20. Ability to argue for hours that Amway is not a pyramid scheme.
21. Good at love bombing - arranging instant friends for new cult members, lots of hugging, smiles, nicey nice behavior, etc.
22. Good salesmanship - must particularly be good at bullying people into buying overpriced products that they don’t want or need.
23. Knowledge of bible and biblical terms. All cult leaders must convince their followers that they are doing the Amway business all in the name of Jesus or God and Jesus wants you to do the Amway business. Must be good at twisting biblical references to suit Amway’s purposes. Love thyself first. Love thy money second.
24. No conscience. Very important not to have a conscience when you are in Amway and if you want to be an Amway cult leader because you are scamming people out of their money, lying to them, being negative, destroying families, and causing emotional and financial distress to others.
25. Must be greedy. All good Amway cult leaders must be obsessed with money and material possessions.
26. Must have a screwy, unbalanced, and evil mindset. Normal, well balanced, compassionate human beings need not apply to be cult leaders in Amway..
27. Ability to paint a dream land fantasy in the eyes of the cult followers of the lives full of riches they’ll have in 2 to 5 years with millions of dollars in residual income flowing in each month to easily afford their new luxurious lifestyles all thanks to Amway. In other words, the ability to sell the hope not the soap.
28. Must strictly follow Amway’s cult leader slogan: “Lie and deny.” That is the secret to success in Amway.
29. Must be good at bullshitting. This includes lying about your own (imaginary) accomplishments, pumping people up by whipping the crowd into a frenzy of excitement about belonging to the Amway cult.
30. Ability not to care about who you step on as long as you make a buck.
31. Most important. Must be able to lie and deny that Amway is a cult. The truth about the secret Amway cult must not be revealed until new recruits have been signed up and the brainwashing begins.

My list is based on my observations and it might not be a list of qualities that the Amway corporation necessarily wants their Platinums to have but this is the reality of how they turn out and behave. Amway the corporation turns a blind eye to this behavior - namely abuse from the upline - and refuses to take action against the troublemakers. Chop off a Platinum and there goes a stream of income. Its this kind of IBO antics and bloggers like myself who reveal them that contributes to giving Amway a bad name. Most companies take responsibility for the actions of their employees. Not Amway. Rather than take complaints seriously at the head office they prefer disgruntled customers and former employees to take to the Internet to make sure everyone searching for information gets the real picture. Being a good corporate citizen goes right out the window here!

Not everybody loves Platinum cult leaders the way Amway does!

Some of them, like myself, expose them on the Internet so everyone knows what hell awaits if they get involved in Amway thanks to lying sack of shit destructive Platinums!

And from marriedtoanambot let’s just send another big old FUCK YOU out to Amway Scamway and their scammer army of Ambots.

Bring Prospects or Be Abused

At every Amway meeting the Platinum cult leader would ride all the IBO’s asses about being failures because no one was bringing new prospects to the meetings.

Well that’s what happens when you’re part of a pyramid scheme. Its not easy finding people open-minded to being ripped off!

Ambot spent hours each week trying to convince friends, family, and people he’d just met to come to a meeting. Infrequently after a few hours of being hounded, someone would break down and agree to see the board plan, but then they wouldn’t show up and spend weeks or months avoiding calls from Ambot.

Years later one of our formerly good friends still refuses to have anything to do with us thanks to the Amway. He actually came out and met some ambots and didn’t like them. Join the club!

I had stopped going to Amway meetings. I refused to show up anywhere that the fucking asshole Platinum was going to be. Horrible evil cult leader that he was spreading negativity, draining the bank accounts of people beneath him in the Amway pyramid, and destroying relationships. Yeah just the kind of sack of shit everyone wants to have in their lives! The day that bastard rots in hell can’t come soon enough for me!

Ambot had been hounding a friend for months to come an Amway cult meeting and our friend had been putting him off one excuse after another. Well no kidding. The only people who want to go to Amway meetings are ambots. People who don’t want anything to do with the Amway cult are not interested. It was no big surprise that our friend failed to show up at our house and go with Ambot to the Amway cult meeting. He wouldn’t answer his phone either when Ambot called to find out where he was. The 8 o clock Amway witching hour was nearing and the guest Ambot had bragged to everyone he was bringing was MIA. Ambot begged me to accompany him so I gave in and for the first time in about 6 months I went to the cult meeting.

By this time I had done research into the Amway cult and was reading first hand accounts of other Amway victims. They all had the same story we had. Their cult leaders told the same lies I heard. Some former cult followers had suffered severe financial losses including bankruptcy and houses being foreclosed. Some marriages had disintegrated. Forearmed is forewarned. I caught the cult leader in all kinds of lies.

A meeting room had been booked at a local hotel and the upline Emerald was the speaker. Everyone had to fork over $10 to the cult leader to show up and be lied to. We came in and sat down. We watched the Platinum sack of shit circulate the room greeting people. He avoided saying hi to us even though he walked right past us a number of times seeing as how we’d chosen aisle seats. Snubbing us! Like I give a shit that someone I don’t like won’t talk to us. Oddly enough Ambot began to chuckle and I asked him what was so funny.

“He’s refusing to talk to us because I didn’t bring anyone to the meeting.”

That was the cult leader’s way of punishing the downline. Refusal to acknowledge them. Ostracization. Shunning.

I was happy with that. We don’t often get that lucky that the pompous sack of shit doesn’t want to talk to us.

So fuck you asshole. It really hurts my feelings when you won’t talk to me. NOT!!!!!

Amway - the Kingpin of All Things Negative!

I can’t tell you how many times I heard Ambot parrot his upline “Don’t say negative!” This was usually after I commented on how expensive an Amway product is or how shitty it tastes. I was telling the truth. Truth. An evil word to ambots. Just because something is true does not make it negative. Like any other criticism one takes in life one must grow a thick skin and accept it civilly and if its constructive criticism instead of mean criticism become better or make changes because of it. However things are beyond an ambot’s control such as lowering the high price tag Amway puts on their products or quality control and actually make shit and piss taste better.

The upline cult leaders usually the pompous sack of shit Platinum and occasionally the Emerald would jabber on about don’t let negative influences into your life.

What a sheltered life that is for an ambot. Unable to tell the difference between the truth and the negative. Believing their cult leaders that they are the only people in the world who speak the truth and everyone else is a negative liar. The Amway cult leaders don’t want their downline to be influenced by outside forces who can reason, tell them the truth, and show the IBO’s that they’re wasting their time and more importantly wasting their money on trying to build an Amway business.

The upline bastards would say don’t read newspapers, don’t watch TV, don’t listen to the radio. Most of all they’d say don’t listen to people who aren’t in Amway.

Yet these same cult leaders all seemed to know what’s going on in the world. How can that be unless they’re being negative and watching TV or reading a newspaper?

These Amway bastards are the most negative people around despite all their sermons about not being negative. At every Amway meeting they’d preach fire and brimstone sermons about Starbucks locations closing down or other businesses closing their doors. They’d spout off tons of doom and gloom about the recession and people losing their jobs. Our Amway upline are the most negative people I’ve ever met in my life!

Since writing this blog I’ve had a few dozen negative ambots show up here who all say the same thing. Some canned amspeak response they’ve duplicated from their cult leaders. They all accuse me of being a broke loser. They all accuse me of working a job. They all predict I’ll be dead or broke by the time I’m 65. They all call me a negative unchristian dream stealer. I mean talk about NEGATIVE! Its the old Amway cult influence. Spread negativity around the world courtesy of being an Amway IBO.

Those fucked up brainwashed ambots think they’re better than everyone else and here they are violating their upline cult leader’s rules by coming to my blog and spreading their Amway negativity.

Becoming an Amway “independent business owner” running a fake business, putting on a business suit, carrying a cell phone, lying to people that the business is not Amway, making false product claims, marching off to 8pm Amway cult meetings, and sneering at people who are not in Amway does not make an ambot a positive role model.

Amway makes for a hell of a lot of misery and negativity in one’s life.

Drop out of Amway and that’s a big load of negative you’ll also be dropping.

Get Your Order of Importance Right!

At every Amway meeting our sack of shit Platinum told us about his life and used a white board to show us his list and where everything stood in his order of importance. Like he expected all of us to “duplicate” him. His list didn't go over too well with the satanists in attendance! Here is his list of life’s order of importance:

1. God

2. Wife

3. Family

4. Job

5. Amway

Yeah well I can tell you I sure as hell wouldn’t want to be married to some lousy bastard who can’t put me number one his list. Fuck you and I am outta here!

Didn’t matter anyway. The sack of shit Platinum never followed his own list.

At every cult meeting he whined and bitched at us about how he was giving up time with his wife and kids to tell us about Amway. OK. Lets look at that list. Wife and family seem to be a couple of notches higher up on the list than Amway. So is he a fucking liar putting Amway ahead of his wife and kids who he’s bitching about not spending time with? Or is he just a fucking lying arrogant sack of shit? YES and YES!

And he should whine and bitch! Big deal. I was taking time away from my family and things I’d rather be doing to show up at his Amway cult meeting and listen to him lie and spout off his bullshit.

Every meeting the Platinum said the same fucking thing about his list of 5 of which Amway is last on the list. Fucking asshole can’t even follow his own list! Lying sack of shit. Amway is really number 1 or 2 on his list. I say that because he was hyper religious. The old Jim Jones influence. Or reincarnation. I can’t say for sure if God or Amway was number one on his list though I’m leaning to Amway no matter how hard that liar would deny it.

Both me and the sack of shit Platinum are stuck at the same Amway cult meeting. Both of us have the same bad attitude that we didn’t want to be wasting our time at the Amway meeting when we’d rather be spending time with our family or more important interests. Odd. The only thing that fucking asshole and I ever agreed on.

The real question was which one of us was going to do something about it?

I might not be arrogant enough to have a list or if I do its not one I put in writing. I also would not be inclined to use his list at all but using his ammunition against him I take his fucking list of order of importance and I put my life in order and put myself and family ahead of Amway. Holy shit did that ever make me the evil person because I no longer attended cult meetings and Amway was not number one on my list. Never had been anyway. Amway was so low down there it needs a high powered telescope just to see the last item on my list!

Of course I don’t give a flying fuck what a bunch of people I don’t like think about me.

When it comes to evil - those cult followers need to be pointing their fingers back at themselves. The real evil dangerous person in this crowd is the Amway cult leader - the pompous sack of shit Platinum.

The Ambot Who Stole Christmas

Even though it was Christmas time unhappiness existed all over the world because of a horrible evil cult named Amway.

 

The cult followers were known as ambots and they got together to put up a Christmas tree.

And they put ornaments on it.

They hung mistletoe.

The problem they quickly learned was that no one wanted to kiss an ambot under the mistletoe! Yuck gross!

 

Poor Tommy was a nasty Amway cult follower. He used to spend Christmas with his family.

Then last year he made the mistake of putting up an Amway Christmas tree.

He gave his relatives shitty Amway products for Christmas.

Tommy made the fatal mistake of giving his wife Artistry cosmetics for Christmas even though he knew she liked reasonably priced Avon products much better.

 

He gave his little girl an Amway doll for Christmas.

  

The Amway products he had so lovingly gone into credit card debt to buy all ended up in the trash.

Except for the Nutrilite vitamins that were flushed down the toilet. THE

BEST PLACE

FOR SHITTY AMWAY PRODUCTS TO END UP!!!

 

So poor Tommy ended up hanging out with ambot buddies at Christmas because his family had left him - just one of the pitfalls of being involved in Amway.

Tommy even met the ambot of his dreams at the cult follower’s Christmas gathering.

All those unoriginal ambots! They all duplicated each other and gave the same Christmas present to everyone else and put it under the ambot Christmas tree.

To show no hard feelings Tommy’s ex-wife even sent along a Christmas present for their Platinum cult leader.

After getting high on XS the ambots put on Santa suits and went to the Amway Center and punched out the snowman.

The police showed up and gave the ambots sobriety tests which they all failed but oddly enough when they blew into the breathalizer no one showed any alcohol levels. Seeing as how the cops don’t like Amway or ambots they decided to toss them all in jail anyway for snowman assault.

And one final warning for anyone thinking of spending Christmas with an ambot.

I hope no one finds any Amway shit under their Christmas tree!

Wishing everyone happy holidays and Merry Christmas!
