"I love Amway. I just don't understand why people have to be negative about it. I don't hurt or steal from anyone yet I make money. I'm not a millionaire as of yet but working towards that goal. It's called "millionaire mentality". Joecool you will never succeed with penny mentality."
Joecool's commentary:
Most diamonds do not have a millionaire mentality. If you see how they spend money and how they flaunt excessive wealth, I see people who could win the power ball lottery and wind up broke. They might earn a nice income (even if it may come by lying and deceiving), but they spend it all, and possibly more by portraying the diamond lifestyle. In my opinion, the diamond lifestyle as portrayed in functions such as "dream night" are not sustainable For this reason, we are now seeing evidence of this such as a triple diamond who participated in chapter 7 bankruptcy proceedings, diamonds losing homes to foreclosures. We are seeing diamonds selling their mansions. Sure, they might be downsizing or liquidating their assets, but if these homes have been paid in cash as they claim, why sell them in a bad real estate market? Why not wait a few years?
In the past, I have posted some articles showing the traits and characteristics of millionaires. Many of these articles cite saving, investing, and living below your means. Many wealthy people drive regular everyday cars and live in the suburbs. They don't commonly have Porsches, and Jaguars. And for the record, the average diamond income, as reported by Amway, isn't all that much when you factor in business expenses and taxes. So why do diamonds try to show off wealth?
I believe diamonds show off wealth because it is a way to attract recruits. Because the Amway opportunity has a high turnover rate, nobody can reasonably "walk away" from their business and have cash rolling in for long. Attrition would eat away your business in a matter of days or weeks. It is why I believe diamonds do not walk away from their businesses, because they can't afford to. The business requires constant attention or it will crumble faster than stake cookies.
Most IBOs are simply fooled into thinking they are developing into having a millionaire mentality. An honest question for IBOs. How do you even know if your upline diamond is a millionaire? Anyone, even a broke guy can wear a nice suit and show off pictures of mansions and sports cars. For that matter, how do you know if your upline diamond is currently qualified as a diamond? Amway doesn't release that information except for new pins.
In my opinion, diamond's displays of excessive wealth and luxury portrays something, but it's not the millionaire mentality.

Amway today basically works through the various AMO subsystems (WWDB, Network 21, BWW, etc.) These subsystems do NOT exist to help you become a millionaire in Amway. They exist solely to make a profit by teaching you how to be in Amway, ad they do it by selling you "tools." These are books, tapes, CDs, and all sorts of other useless shit, including tickets to mindless "functions" where everyone just screams and shouts.
No one in charge at WWDB or Network 21 gives a damn whether you succeed in Amway or not. All they care about is the tuition fees that you pay them, and how to keep you doing it on a permanent monthly basis. In fact, these organizations are completely separate from Amway, and Amway is unconcerned about how they operate.
Everything in Amway is as fake as a air of silicon tits. What your up-line tells you is not designed to make you successful, but to keep you hooked into the monthly payment schedule.
