Having Trouble Quitting Amway?

 People who search for "how to stop Amway" and land on my blog as a result of my blog's URL are astounded and a little concerned, as I am. Every day, a large number of hits are generated using that search criterion. Quitting appears to be a straightforward process for me. Put an end...

Have I Mentioned I can’t stand our Sponsor?

 I was going to complain about our Amway sponsor today, but the guy hasn't stopped piss-ing me off since he won't leave Ambot alone. He makes a phone call in order to shoot the trash. He calls Ambot to see if he knows of anyone who is looking for job. He calls and asks to borrow some...

Get Your Wife Free!

 Do you really want your wife to come home from work and spend time with your children?While prospecting for new IBOs, that was one of the "lines" that our Platinum instructed us to employ, and it was one of the most effective.I believe this is a sexist remark. No one asserts or implies...

Buy Less and Be Heard!

 Recently, I saw an interview with a man who has written a book about customers and how we may influence the behaviour of corporations. He employs his blog to disseminate information about various businesses. The majority of the time, this is due to businesses that provide shoddy products...

Amway River House *Fun* (Go Diamond)

 Okay, this video is a little amusing. a duo of neanderthals equipped with a dirt bike and a camcorder who have a burning urge to wreck the Puryears' house It wouldn't be nearly as entertaining if it weren't for the music. highlightSearchTerms('founders crown, true, 'https://amwayleaders.blogspot.com/p/founders-crown.html,...

Ambots Anonymous

 They read blogs and books by former Amway IBOs and are critical of us because we do not use our real names. They seem to believe that if someone does not use their real name, it undermines their experience or creates a lack of credibility, and therefore anything these anonymous posters...

You Can’t Quit Now!

 “You're not going to be able to quit now. Not when the prospect of triumph is so close at hand. “You're about to do something incredibly big.”That is a term that we have all heard from our upline. Alternatively, something somewhat comparable.They do everything they can to encourage...

Who Are the Losers?

 While visiting a friend's house a few days ago, Ambot shared with us his honest and genuine belief that he was a loser after leaving Amway, which we found to be rather amusing. In part, this was because he had been brainwashed into believing that the very fact of his leaving Amway...

The Taxman’s Gonna Catch Some IBO’s!

 Our upline gave us sage advice on everything under the sun, but arguably the worst piece of advice, which might have had serious ramifications, was that everything in Amway is deductible as a business expense for tax purposes. When the upline said that the only way an IBO can live...

Searchers who end up at Anna Banana’s Blog

 I receive a large number of Google searches, both intriguing and not so interesting, that lead to my Married to an Ambot blog. Some searches are looking for something completely unrelated to Amway, and they tend to abandon their search as soon as they realise they've made a clerical...

Put all Your Eggs in one Basket!

 Another adage that I don't recall hearing in any Amway meetings has to do with not putting all of your eggs in one basket. It has to do with not putting all of your eggs in one basket.Actually, the only time I recall hearing that statement was from our arrogant prick sponsor, who claimed...

The Products You Love!

 Seeing as it is Valentine's Day, I felt it would be appropriate to sprinkle some romance into this post!“Products You'll Enjoy Using.”I was inspired by yet another Google Ad that seemed to be from Amway. But I've learned my lesson from these deceptive advertisers. According to the...

Park That Car... but not in MY Spot!

 I've already mentioned in a previous piece that I could tell when we were coming close to the Amway meeting that night by the junk automobiles parked on the street - BMWs and Cadillacs from the 1970s and 1980s, to be precise.The meetings were held at various locations, depending on...

No Business Advice

 When it came to Amway, our upline didn't provide us with any sound, legitimate business guidance. Although we attended numerous "business meetings," we learned nothing relevant about running a genuine firm during the course of our attendance. Just because someone pays $150 to become...

Mow My Lawn!

 Ambot and I were in the car one day when Ambot pulled out his cell phone to call his long-distance girlfriend, Platinum.He inquires as to whether his teenage son would be interested in mowing our grass.What the fuck is going on! Ambot never brought this up with me beforehand and never...

Messing with Amway WWDB Spring Leadership

 I'm getting a few Google hits for information on 2011 Spring Leadership, which I assume are from Independent Business Owners (IBOs).In case you weren't aware, Spring Leadership is one of the Amway cult's big rituals held in April, where the cult's adherents converge in large numbers...

Loud and Clear?

 Ambot and I were eating at a restaurant when three motorcycles pulled into the parking lot. It was a few years ago that this happened. One of the riders was riding with a spike in his back instead of a back seat. The warning was clear and unequivocal: "There will be no passengers!"What...

IBO’s Tossing in Grenades

 The occasional Amway IBO pops up to post a comment on my blog or one of the blogs on my reading list, berating us for having jobs, leading ordinary lives, lacking anything more interesting to do with our time, etc., etc., is nothing new.In the last few days, I received the following...

How to Quit Amway

 A recent search resulted in a visitor to my site who was looking for advice on how to leave Amway.I think it's a sad state of affairs to be brainwashed by the Amway cult to the point where someone has to look for information on how to leave the company on the Internet.I'll list the...

How to Listen to Amway Tapes

 OK. Who would conduct a search for “how to listen to Amway tapes” on Google?Umm. It is necessary to insert the tape into a cassette player and press the play button so that you can listen to it?I used to work for a company that was housed in a five-story building many years ago. In...

How to Convince Your Husband to Quit Amway

 On the subject of the aforementioned, I receive a lot of Google visits. I was at the top of the search results the last time I checked, but I'm confident that IBOFB will do his own inquiry and discover that someone has now surpassed me in the rankings.As a result, I believe there are...
