One of the many lessons my upline instilled in us was the need of having unwavering faith in our business and in our upline, which she repeated over and over. The fact that we had to think that we were going to be successful was essential. IBOs are instructed that they should project a successful image even though they are still in the process of moving up the corporate ladder in the company. It is for this reason that they request (demand) IBOs to dress in suits and business clothes to all meetings and gatherings. This is, in my opinion, one of the strangest aspects of the industry to observe. I reside in Hawaii, and I recall a function that was conducted in a high school auditorium in the middle of July, when there was no air conditioning in the building. Due to the fact that it was fully saturated in persiration, I believe my suit required professional cleaning.
In any event, with this time of the year approaching, thousands of IBOs will be sent off to a function known as dream night, or in some circumstances, winter conference, in the near future. The supper is included in the ticket price, which ranges from $60 to $80. What many IBOs are not aware of is that many locations will allow you to host these conferences for as little as $20 to $25 per person on a regular basis. The remainder of the ticket pricing is funnelled directly into the pockets of your upline. In any case, the dream night party will feature slide exhibitions featuring mansions, yachts, jet skis, sports cars, great vacations, and other trappings of riches. Tickets for the dream night function are available here.
What many IBOs are unaware of is that this display of wealth is simply that: a display of money. There is no solid evidence to suggest that these diamonds are the legitimate owners of all of those toys and other trinkets. Because these toys and sweets may not actually be theirs, the diamonds are unlikely to verbally acknowledge their ownership of them as well. It may be rented, or it could be owned by an upline corwn ambassador, but IBOs will think that these trappings of riches are commonplace once you achieve diamond status, and they will be right. As an IBO, I had no way of knowing how much a diamond was worth in real life. I just assumed it was a lot because we were shown all of these nice things and I assumed that all gems lived in this manner as well.
People would be outraged if I shared a picture of my mansion and private aircraft and claimed that I owed everything to my blogging profits. They would claim that I was lying and inventing stories. And they'd be absolutely correct. When diamonds get on stage and make claims about having private jets and mansions, I would venture to think that many of them are doing the exact same thing. As I previously stated, someone may own a home and a private plane, but to imply that this is a part of the ordinary diamond lifestyle is a bit misleading. The evidence is in front of us. Some diamonds have been forced to abandon their houses due to foreclosure. We learned from our old LOS diamonds (WWDB) that diamonds will pay cash for everything, including residences. This has since been proven to be a clear untruth. No one can tell what else they could have misled.
I ask IBOs and prospects who may be in attendance during dream night to keep a watchful eye on the proceedings. In displaying riches, what is the implication of the act? Examine whether such luxuries may be acquired with a diamond income ($150,000 + a small amount from tool sales). Consider whether or not this way of life is genuinely sustainable. Ask yourself if you can live with yourself if deception is a part of earning your diamond lifestyle?
