One thing propsects of Amway should ask themselves is why Amway? If you've done due diligence on Amway and MLM in general, it's clear that the vast majority do not make any money with many many people losing money. The disclosures and information all points to that. Yes, some people succeed but they face overwhelming odds and even those who may succeed often find their success short lived. For that reason, diamonds and other hihg pins have quit, rather than "walking away" to collect residual income.
Ask your prospective sponsor how much he or she makes. If you are told "none of your business" or if you are told that how much they make will not affect what you make, it's a red flag. Someone asking you to be in business with them should be prepared to disclose some information. It's a normal business practice. If someone asked you to inest with them, you'd want to know whatreturns you can expect. And you'd want to know the likely return, not only the best case scenario. Yet, the Amway folks will only give you the rosiest possibilities and not the reality. Why is that? Because the reality is in contract to what they are claiming?
If you explore other venues to make money, there are plennty of low risk opportunities. A second part time job whhere you enjoyed the work, a part time business, buying and selling on ebay, craigslist, etc, crafts, handyman work, can provide you more than amway or MLM. Do your research and don't fall for the hype.

I've asked my diamond & platinum how much they made? Gave me some crazy figure and tons of nonsense. With other mlms there's hardly this cult members mentality. If I quit another mlm they hardly sweat it and use these mind games. Plus I notice Amway cost is many times higher.
Amway just left my house. Exactly said "I don't disclose personal info," and "my experience shows you'll judge the business based on my success." EXTREMLY defensive, and told me I was asking the wrong questions. Also, I was asked, "when you interview for a job, do you ask how much the boss makes?" As a matter of fact,I DO! See, I've been in sales for 20 years. I know a poor, untrained salesperson when I see one. I was told they have excellent training and development programs. Really? Then, are you not coachable and motivated to follow your own instruction by becoming a professional sales person? After all, like it or not, this is direct SELLING! Be DARN sure judgments of the company are being made based on your DIRECT and PERSONAL reputation. Amway today you get a grade of . . . FAIL!
When you see through the Amway BS, some of the stuff they say and do is actually kind of funny.
Anonymous, I ask when I am shown jets,yachts,and retire in 2-5 yrs. I have to ask is it even possible to make this and how much are they making. I've been to other Mlm plans and how much are u making is ask all the time
If they have jets and yachts, it is most likely from selling books, cds and seminars, and not exclusively from Amway.
