The Internet is full of stories
about marriages destroyed by involvement in Amway.
Most of the stories its the husband who’s the Amway keener and the wife who may
be supportive at first then wants nothing to do with it, especially after she’s
seeing how’s it changing her husband for the worse. Whether that’s because more
men than women are involved in Amway or whether its because more wives hit the
Internet to complain than husbands I don’t know. Sorry guys. This post is
taking the position that the husband is the Ambot.
Its been my personal experience and from other stories I’ve read that the
husband will usually leave Amway on his own inside one year due to one of
several things happening:
1. He finally comes to senses after not signing up any IBO’s or finding retail
customers and realizes that he’s wasting his time in this business. Amway’s bad
reputation for overpriced products and abusive IBO’s is a tough obstacle to
overcome. Most people he prospects have had bad experiences with Amway or know
someone who has and don’t want nothing to do with it. The word is out: RUN
don’t walk away from Amway!
2. He runs out of money or hits the limit on his credit cards. There’s no money
left to fund his upline’s dreams. Unfortunately if he ran up thousands of
dollars on his credit card the Amway nightmare might take years to pays off.
3. He stops going to Amway meetings or goes less often. That’s a good sign he’s
become fed up and disenchanted with this business opportunity. Often he stops
going because the speaker - usually the Platinum - insults him and mocks him
for not being “man enough” to build a business.
4. He finally reads the fine print on his Amway business plan and realizes less
than 1% of IBO’s actually make money and recognizes it for the shitty business
opportunity it is.
5. He starts looking around on the Internet and gets answers to questions that
his upline refuse to answer.
6. He stops buying shitty Amway products or less of them. Now this just might
mean he’s low on money and this could only be a temporary setback but hopefully
it means he saw similar products at Wal-Mart or Costco for a third to a quarter
of the price and realizes Amway products are not such a good deal after all.
Now those are just a few signs to look for that he’s losing interest or has
become disenchanted with the business, or had an argument with someone upline,
or got tired of being mocked in Amway cult meetings.
It doesn’t matter which one because he’s had enough and is on the way out. Wait
it out. Don’t even mention anything about Amway.
There might be small setbacks when someone upline phones and bullies him into
buying products or going to a meeting and his mind isn’t completely clear of
the brainwashing and he complies.
A good counterattack is to plan fun outings on nights when Amway meetings are
scheduled. If he chooses to go out and have fun with his wife instead of
putting on a business suit and meeting up with the other cult followers, that
means Amway is on the downslide.

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. There's over 1000 spam comments left here each month. We don't check them. We just delete them. If your comment landed in spam - sucks to be you!
