I'm glad that you ...Thanka for your comments. I'm glad that you saw through the deception and decided to further your education. I would advise that you also consider starting to save for your retirement very soon too. It really ticks me off that these hucksters in WWDB persuade young folks to skip college to build the business. <br /><br />All the Amway opportunity will do is set you back from your education and swipe your resources. <br /><br />Yes, I don't know how many starfish I've saved but it is rewarding at times to hear from those who benefited from the information from this blog. Good luck and I hope much success in your future!

I really don't know how many people have been aided by this blog but I've had nearly 700,000 site visitors so Im sure some have been helped. <br /><br />At least recently I haven't received any threats from what looks like enraged IBOs.

That in itself is a major public service.<br /><br />The sheer level of hatred and venom that one hears expressed against you at various Amway gatherings is staggering. My little cadre of fifth-columnists (who have connections to the Amway fraud) tell me that when your name is mentioned privately, big pins and those higher up in the up-line go into a state of choleric rage.<br /><br />It's easy to see why -- your blog, against all normal expectations, continues for year after year, regularly, on an almost daily basis, to send salvos of negative publicity into the Amway colossus. The Amway bighsots simply can't understand this, since for them everything is money and profits, and they can't conceive of why anyone would do what you do without the slightest remuneration. Because of you they are losing fistfuls of money from potential recruits who never signed up. You have hit them very hard in the pocketbook.<br /><br />But like that little girl with the starfish, you are acting on a purely disinterested and charitable impulse -- the desire to save others from something evil. <br /><br />God will reward you. And He will send all those fat-assed, lying, smirking, money-grubbing, big-pin, Diamond, and Crown Ambassador scum to the fiery pit of Hell.

I stumbled ...You are truly doing gods work Joecool! I stumbled onto one of your blogs from 2011 and was thinking "no way is this guy still creating blogs of this 5 years later." You truly saved me from joining Amway a few weeks ago! I just started a new job and one of my coworkers was like "I moved from Montana to the southwest to get closer to a wealthy couple that's mentoring me to become fully retired and a millionaire in 2-5 years." Of course me having a family and wanting "freedom" I went through two meetings over coffee then to a seminar about jobs are modern day slavery and you can't trust your family's advice on becoming financially free since they are employees. The seminar was 2 hours and they didn't even mention Amway until the last 15 minutes and was very brief about it saying it was just a vehicle for IBO's and the true success was the tools like Worldwide Group,doing your 5 cores, etc. They kept touting that an 18 year old still in high school was going to be retired before his piers would graduate college. There was about 35 people in that hotel conference room with all young and easily impressionable like I was. I was constantly showed pictures of the house my coworkers mentors lived in and the luxury cars they drove. I was never into vanity but it showed me that the system "worked" and being a person in a low wage job I thought this was going to change mine and my families life. I left that seminar like I was on cloud 9 thinking this is too good to be true and how lucky I was to have a caring coworker guide and mentor me through this journey. After reflecting about it on my hour ride home I had doubts thinking "too good to be true, too good to be true..." I began to think about how I would generate money since I would be a prosumer and was actually discouraged to sell the product to people like say Avon. I would have to offer "mentor ship" (recruit) 12 strong legs to do the same. When I heard mentor ship I thought it was actually learning how to have a successful business not just learning tips on how to trick other people into Amway and listening to their bullshit for $100 per class at worldwide group. Then my coworker showed me a seminar/retreat for double eagles and up he was going to and the flight alone was $400 and 5 star hotel was $800 for two nights. How was I going to make money requiring me to do that even though he said it was voluntary but only people truly plugged-in would be there. <br /><br />Although gullible I looked up Amway (against my coworkers advice stating it was just negative rhetoric) and found previous lawsuits and ultimately your website. I feel sorry for him because he truly thinks that hes helping other people become financially free and I believe he is brainwashed from all the programming that worldwide group promotes and always doing his 5 cores and not looking at "negative" sources. It's truly sad to see a victim further victimizing others for the upper echelon 1%. This is truly a cult that I never would have thought to exist outside extreme religious sects. The worlds a scary place but if you keep your mind open and use this vast information available to you through the internet you will still find good people out there like Joecool and many others who were in Amway and found the ugly truth out. I also strongly recommend reading Merchants of Deception to get an inside look of The Business. <br /><br />Once again Joecool thanks for your dedicated work on this blog site! I was actually between two crossroads at the time either going back to college or starting an IBO with Amway. Your efforts are one of the reasons why I'm going back to school to finish my degree. One more star fish is back in the ocean, able to spend his time truly bettering his and his families life!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04495912390262907250noreply@blogger.com
