One of the funny things taught by our upline was that broke losers would be at home watching episodes of the Simpsons while the rest of us were building our business and securing our futures. He would laugh that people’s homes would have a blue glow coming from their homes, meaning they watching television.
Now that would be fine and dandy if Amway IBOs were actually making money but the fact of the matter is that nearly all rank and file IBOs were losing money because of the Amway business expenses such as standing orders, books and functions. Here the IBOs were losing money plus spending their spare time to boot. But they thought they were doing something good and worthwhile.
The true irony in all this is that people sitting at home watching “The Simpsons” were better off because they were being entertained and they were not losing money in a fake business designed to extract money from rank and file distributors for the benefit of the diamonds. It sounds nice that you’re working to secure your financial future bit losing money doesn’t secure much does it?
That’s the really insidious part of Amway. The diamonds feed you lies that anyone and everyone can get in and go diamond when it’s just not true. The common 6-4/2 plan or similar versions show a large group of IBOs with a platinum or direct distributor. And that’s how it will always be. 1 guy on top and a lot of rank and file downline.
The reality sucks which is why the diamonds sell you on hopes, wishes and dreams. The bad part is an IBOs participation only delivers dreams to the diamonds who profit handsomely from your participation in the tools and functions.

When Amway freaks talk about "building your business," what exactly does that mean?
Does it mean selling products at retail to non-Amway customers?
Or does it mean recruiting new IBOs into your down-line, and living off them and their fees?
