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!

Amway Cult Leaders Claim Social Security Won’t Be There When You Retire
I’d say just about every Amway meeting we attended one of the scare tactics the speaker used to say was “Social security won’t be there when you retire”.
Well how do they know? I’m pretty sure it will be. But I suppose like any other guesses the speaker has a 50/50 shot of getting that prediction right. So do I!
Even though I think social security will be there when I retire we have other investments and savings and a combination of all are what I hope will sustain us for the rest of our lives. Or my life anyway. I plan to live until at least 100 and keep dishing shit on Amway Ambots! I just know I’m going to outlive everyone. Those broke Amway losers might be dead by age 65 but I’ll keep on ticking!
People need to make decisions during their working years and hopefully most start some sort of retirement savings plan in their 20’s and add other investments to it over the years. For example save up a down payment for house while in your 20’s. Buy that house in your 20’s or 30’s and by your 50’s or certainly by retirement age your house will be paid in full. Knock off that mortgage payment and that’s a big part of monthly expenses that goes away. Also get rid of any outstanding debt by retirement age and don’t incur any further debt and that will make retirement years less stressful.
Those are the big things. Reaching retirement age without debt and owning your own home are huge. I mean who wants to hit retirement age and still be a renter unless you’ve downsized, sold your house and living off the proceeds. If renting at some point in your life because it fits into your financial plan then that’s your plan. If you follow the Amway plan you’ll be a renter forever. That’s hundreds of dollars you pay each month to a landlord because of poor planning in younger years and throwing your money tithing the Great Amway God.
In aprevious post I estimated average monthly expenses in Amway around $700. The unknown factor is if this is disposable income or if IBO’s are running up their credit card (probably the latter!). That monthly $700 could be redirected to a mortgage payment instead of being flushed down the Amway toilet.
Our upline's goal was to strike fear in people’s hearts to scare new prospects to sign up to the Amway cult. For a bunch of bastards who extol the virtues of “don’t say negative” they’re the most negative people I’ve ever met. Full of doom and gloom about the future, businesses shutting down, recession, people losing jobs, social security won’t be there, and blah, blah, blah. Who needs to listen to the negative shit that goes on in Amway cult meetings?
The fucking assholes in the Amway upline scare the IBO’s into thinking that social security won’t be there when they retire so they need to find some other income. Any other plans IBO’s have the upline pokes fun at them and puts them down. According to the "wisdom" of our upline bastards Amway is the only choice and all you have to do is spend 2 to 5 years working part time 10 to 15 hours a week doing the work in order to live off residual income for the rest of your life. Freedom!
Yeah right. There are better options out there than throwing your money at Amway chasing futile dreams.
Don’t think negative like the fucking assholes in our Amway upline. Think positive. Social security will be there when you turn 66. (I got a 50% chance of getting that prediction right!)
Forget social security. With luck Amway won’t be around when I retire! Ha ha ha! 50% chance of me getting that prediction right too!
And one more time from marriedtoanambot let’s just send another big old FUCK YOU out to Amway Scamway and their scammer army of Ambots.

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.
Social Security is the most popular government program in the history of the United States. It has been around for more than seventy-five years, and it is the mainstay for retirement for millions of persons of all sorts of classes and backgrounds. It is accepted as a fact of life by all political parties. Many poor persons get by on Social Security benefits alone.
ReplyDeleteThe idea that "Social Security won't be there" when you retire is one of the biggest and most outrageous lies that the Amway freaks have propagated. It is pure and total BULLSHIT. Any lawmaker, political party, or leader who attempted to abolish Social Security would face utter defeat at the polls, and every politician in America knows it.
With that kind of popular support, no one would DARE attempt to stop Social Security payments. There would be a bloody revolution in the streets if anyone tried it, and the American government knows it.
The fact that Amway freaks keep on telling recruits this outrageous lie that Social Security "won't be there" is proof of two things: Amway up-line is shameless and utterly immoral; and that persons who join Amway are for the most part REALLY STUPID.
Anonymous and the age keeps going up. Will be 67 now so those broke Amway losers are going to have to wait a couple more years to get their Social Security!
DeleteI read something not too long ago comparing other countries when they begin collecting their version of Social Security and what's amazing is that some countries are higher, some are lower, and the age you can start might depend on whether you're a man or a woman.
Amway cult leaders aren't the only assholes out there claiming it won't be around by the time we're ready to collect but Amway has an evil purpose behind their "prediction".
You must spend an incredible amount of time wallowing in negativity. Also - i bet your marriage is awesome considering how supportive you are.
ReplyDeleteYou must spend an incredible amount of time hanging around fucking Amway losers. I do NOT support my husband in hanging around with broke Amway losers and I do NOT support him having our money scammed by Amway. What kind of a fucktard would even say something about someone else's marriage? Why is it any of your fucking business? Like we need further proof that Amway Ambots can't mind their own fucking business and are a bunch of fucking troublemakers.
DeleteAnna, you've really hit a home run with this article. When I joined Amway as a naive 19 year-old, my upline slut would tell me that the world is a cruel and negative place and that having a job is a very demeaning way to live life. I was often told that college and university is a scam , and that the only way to succeed and be respected is by building the amway business. I was told to leave all my friends and form close bonds with the uplines. Ughhh! Some of my former uplines have been in the amway pyramid for the better part of a decade and are still trying to requalify 9% and 12%. Whatever happened to the 2-5 years deal. The uplines are all selfish manipulative pricks pretending to be entrepreneurs. They walk around in their fancy little suits thinking they are the next Jeff Bezos.
ReplyDeleteI wish and pray that Amway shuts down, and all the fucking IBOs have to work a J-O-B for the rest of their lives.
Love
Hi Anonymous. You will never find more negative people anywhere than inside the Amway cult. These losers have an over the top obsession with everything negative but that's all they're capable of. They go around screeching don't say negative but can't even take their own advice.
DeleteAmway Ambots are quick to point out how your job or school is a scam or a pyramid scheme. That's what happens when you work out of the Peewee Herman handbook! LOL!
Yup you're calling those Amway pricks as you see them! And we're all hoping that Amway shuts down. That would be one less evil in this world.
You know, Anna, there is another prediction that I recall hearing from Amway assholes. They would say "In ten years, there will be no brick-and-mortar stores. Everyone will buy and sell through MLM systems."
ReplyDeleteThey said that back in 2000. Another one of those famous Amway predictions that turns out to be total bullshit.
Anonymous - yeah we heard that same bullshit from Amway cult leaders too about how bricks and mortars stores are doomed. Those Amway losers just love being negative though they screech at everyone else not to speak negative. LOL! There will always be brick and mortar stores. There will always be people who love the personal touch. MLM systems will never be the go-to for shoppers. LOL! Amazon is too powerful in their selection and prices. Amazon might be helpful in shutting down these scam MLMs!
DeleteWell Anna,
ReplyDeleteI will say this only once. It is being discussed in very high levels of government right now about "fake news" and its implications for our American republic and Amway is the ultimate in "fake news" with that general negativity directed at many American institutions like Social Security as someone wants to poison the well of the American body politic as these people are seriously seen as a threat to national security.
Amway is front and center IMO as the purveyor of mistrust of all of our institutions from University, the Military and even the Postal service and let's not forget a DeVoss holds America's highest position in regards to education. Also, a DeVoss psyophant is running America's largest private army called Blackwater/achedimi.
The day will come when our Federal Family will prosecute these traitors to America until then let us shame them without stop! And when that day comes no amount of money will prevent their demise!
I assure you of this that the wheels of justice grind slow but sure...

Hi KMB. Yes it would be nice to see those Amway losers spreading fake news be held accountable. The thing is prison overcrowding would get even worse if they added in every Amway liar out there.
DeleteThe fat cats at the top of the Amway pyramid scheme did pay millions of dollars in fines to avoid jail so you can buy your way out apparently.
Give an Amway Ambot a little power or what the bastard perceives as power and he turns into a dictator.
