A common theme among Amway uplines when recruiting new Independent Business Owners (IBOs) is to discuss how jobs are dead ends, that you may be fired at any time, that you have no control over your position, and that you are never paid what you are worth. They try to persuade you that having a job is a crime and that your boss is certainly the one who works the most hours. They may even claim that those who earn a good living from their jobs work so hard that they don't have time to enjoy their jobs. True freedom, according to my old upline, is the ability to manage one's time and finances. The irony in this is that diamonds are still required to be at specific locations at specific times (events and meetings) in order to earn money, which is not all that dissimilar from a job.
According to what I've been informed, in the actual world, most of the time, the guys who have enough money are so busy working that they don't have time for anything else. Or that a broke guy with a lot of free time is also broke, which means he can't do much of anything with it. That's when they'd try to persuade potential customers that only through Amway could they have both. You can have both time and money at the same time. If you establish it correctly and only once, your (Amway) business will provide you with income for the rest of your life. That's how it was presented to me, and now that I think about it, it was a complete fabrication. I'd want to issue a challenge to any IBO or Amway apologist. Founded in 1962, Amway has been in business for more than 50 years. Is there anyone who can name a dozen persons who have truly created an Amway business and then quit working in it while still collecting a considerable income that has been handed on to their heirs? Is it possible to name even one or two? Always keep in mind that tens of millions of people have passed through the doors of the organisation. Take note, as well, that Amway does not make any of these promises. Perhaps someone should contact Amway?
It makes me question why the crown ambassadors don't just walk away and collect their money for the rest of their lives.. They are all old (or have passed away) and have been around for what seems like an eternity, but they continue to work with their organisations and attend all of the events that are organised for them. Sure, their day-to-day lives aren't as hectic as those of a 9-5 employee with young children, but it still makes me wonder why none of the double diamonds and above (as far as I'm aware) have taken advantage of the option to walk away and reap the benefits of mountains of residual cash rolling into their accounts. Moreover, I am perplexed as to why there are stories of diamonds quitting and resigning when there is the possibility to walk away and earn a lifetime of residual income. Also, we are aware that diamonds and many platinums fail to meet the requirements for qualification, presenting clear evidence that an Amway business is unstable and that without regular attention, your firm is likely to fail.
Allow me to conclude with this. We know that a typical platinum firm has approximately 100 or more downline independent business owners (IBOs). Those who have resigned are not included in this number. A platinum is already in the top 1 percent of all Amway businesses, yet platinums may not even produce that much net money when you consider that platinums have many expenses, which may include eating losses on tools refunds for the upline diamond's upline diamonds.
True financial independence, on the other hand, is having complete control over one's time and money. Because very few people ever attain financial independence, it appears that even fewer Amway business owners reach the same level of financial independence that they would would have achieved without the Amway chance. Furthermore, displaying photos of mansions and sports automobiles does not constitute conclusive evidence of financial independence. So, do Amway diamonds have any control over the passage of time and money? According to the evidence, the answer is no.
