Amway diamonds, in my opinion, are nothing more than a bunch of performers. After all, they are playing a role, and while their subordinates may look up to them for guidance, what is left after the lights are turned off? I feel that the majority of diamonds are simply middle-class people who are presenting the lifestyles of the affluent and famous, rather than actual gems. We could dispute whether or not a diamond has a simple task to perform. While I may concede that speaking at functions is preferable to working 9-5, the instability of the Amway company can cause a diamond to live under higher stress than someone who has a regular and reliable career.
My former diamond used to live in a middle-class area, and he informed the group that he had purchased a piece of land in an elite gated community where he planned to construct a luxurious residence for himself. He stated that his home would be on a hill overlooking a beautiful beach, where he would be able to enjoy his pastime of spearfishing as well as the ocean. He may or may not have built that house, but the last I heard, he was residing in the state of Washington. That raises the question of why he would relocate there when he was reportedly building his dream home in Hawaii near one of his favourite beaches. (Perhaps the cost of living is lower in that location?)
Consider the diamond in this light. It is a proven truth that the majority of diamonds are not Q12 (that is, they do not qualify for diamond status for all 12 months of Amway's fiscal year). A Q12 diamond from Amway sells for approximately $600,000 on average (source: Amway.com), although only a small percentage of diamonds of Q12 quality. The other non-Q12 diamonds earn an average of $150,000 each year, and they supplement that income with cash from tools scams and other sources. As a result, an ordinary diamond may fetch between $250,000 and $300,000. After business expenses, taxes, family medical and dental insurance, and other miscellaneous business expenses are taken into account, a diamond is not financially capable of purchasing homes in cash, having exclusive golf club memberships, or purchasing Ferraris in cash, despite the fact that they may appear to be "wealthy." In all likelihood, a diamond lives a middle-class lifestyle while appearing to be a multimillionaire. The other day, I was talking to a former emerald who told me that the majority of her emerald income (or diamond revenue, for that matter) came in the form of an annual bonus, which means that her monthly income was quite little.
It is possible that diamonds are extremely affluent. However, if they actually are, it is because they are at a higher level than diamond, and it is also quite possible that they derive their money from sources other than the Amway organisation. We are aware that Greg Duncan, a WWDB triple diamond, filed for chapter 7 bankruptcy in Montana in 2009, and that the filing is a matter of public record. He had homes foreclosed on by the bank. As an IBO, this man took the stage and told the crowd that anyone who makes a loan is "dumb." I thought he was crazy. I'm curious as to how Mr. Duncan felt when he defaulted on his several home loans, despite earning approximately $40,000 per month from Amway as a triple diamond distributor.
As a result, I believe that Amway diamonds are nothing more than performers. Ultimately, when the lights are turned out, they are not significantly better off financially than someone who has a well-paying work, some more so than others. According to various sources, truly wealthy individuals do not flaunt their possessions or flaunt their riches. Isn't that something to ponder, or something?
