Some entrepreneurs who love what they do every day say to
follow the passion and the money will follow.
Of course it’s a different philosophy in Amway The Cult of Greed. It’s all
about the money and not giving a fuck about hurting anyone to make a buck.
There is no “passion” in Amway. Only greed.
Every now and then you’ll come across some general advice
that goes along the lines of find something you want to do for a living that
you’re passionate about and the money will come.
Maybe. Maybe not.
There are business owners who have fallen into it for one reason or another and
it might not be their passion but they’re good at running this type of business
and they make money so they roll with it. For example are people really
passionate about owning a dry cleaning store, a dog shit removal company, or
selling t-shirts on Hollywood Boulevard. Or did they find a business they could
make money at?
When a group of friends are sitting around talking about what they want to do
for a living that they’re passionate about some of the careers tossed around
might be being an actor, playing a guitar in a band and serving their country.
How many people say they’re passionate about becoming a commissioned
salesperson? Or even more fucking freaky that they’re passionate about becoming
an Amway commissioned salesperson. That sure was never on the radar for me.
Some people are good at sales. They sell houses or cars. They have the right
kind of personality so they can earn a good commission at it. Might not be
something they’re passionate about but they get experienced, make good money so
they stick with it.
There are companies that pay out shit for commission. Amway comes to mind. But
Amway is even worse – the shittiest of the shittiest - because it costs the
commissioned salespeople megabucks just to earn a measly $10 commission check…
you got to shell out around $300 to earn 100 PV the minimum to earn an Amway
commission. Add on to that the tool scam purchases and most Amway ambots shell
out $500 to $700/month to earn that skimpy commission. And then the whole emotional
distress that goes along with belonging to the Amway cult.
An ambot would probably argue that business owners have to spend money to make
money like real estate salespeople have to shell out money when listing a house
for sale. They got to pay for advertising and hiring a photographer and they
got to kick back some of their commission to the person who owns the real
estate company so a real estate salesperson can also be spending hundreds of
bucks on expenses, maybe not monthly, but a commission on a house sale will be
in the thousands and if they keeping making a good profit they stick with it.
Unless you’re a brainwashed Amway ambot you don’t sit around saying the one
thing you’re passionate about being is a commissioned sales rep for Amway. Losing
money is only part of it. Getting brainwashed by cult leaders and spending much
time defending the company are part of the duties. Its less effort to work for
a reputable company or actually own a real business. The life of an Amway ambot
is lie, deny, distract, and defend. Takes up a lot of time and a lot of money
loss and causes ambot anger.
How many people sit around and say they’re passionate about getting scammed?
How many say they’re passionate about signing up with a cult? How many say
they’re passionate about being abused by the assholes in their upline? How many
say they’re passionate about buying overpriced shitty products? How many are
passionate about losing money? How many are passionate about destroying
relationships with friends and family?
How many Amway ambots are out there? Add them up. You got your answer.

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.
