Reaping and Sowing?

One of the things that many prospects and IBOs believe is that they will make an investment of time and money into Amway and that they will eventually get their time and money back in such abundance that they can walk off their jobs, and walk the beaches of the world while living on lifelong residual income, all because of the Amway opportunity. For IBOs and prospects of Amway, I wonder if any of you can actually name even five people who have actually accomplished this? Keep in mind that there have probably been tens of millions of people who also wanted this and tried Amway and the systems, only to find that reality paints a different picture.

Many people they will reap what they sow. While that many sound true, I guess the next logical question is what are you sowing? Are you deceptive when prospecting people to see the plan? Are you having to justify and hide price comparisons that are not favorable? Are you actually selling goods to customers and actually qualifying for your Amway bonus? Do you have a negative opinion (broke losers) about people who don't join Amway or are not interested in seeing the plan? Do you now think your boss and your job are evil? Do you leave your kids at home to attend endless numbers of functions and meetings? You reap what you sow correct?

I wonder what some WWDB diamonds were sowing? At least the ones who had their homes foreclosed, and one in particular was involved in chapter 7 bankruptcy proceedings? Are they reaping what they sowed? What about the WWDB diamonds who got divorced? What were they sowing? Are IBO sure about wanting to make the claim of reaping and sowing? And yes, Joecool the person also has his own flaws, but the difference is that I am not on stage proclaiming to be flawless and many diamonds would imply when they speak (and profit from) their tens of thousands of downlines. I am not earning a living by deceiving people and profiting from people I am supposed to be helping.

Are you reaping what you sow?

This is a great post Joe. I am totally reaping what hubs and I sowed. After 5 years of deceiving people and turning our backs on everyone who didn't "have a dream", we are now living with my parents, are suffocating from our Amway debt, and struggling to get our lives back together. Just glad we got out. I am so grateful our families forgave us. We will be trying to make up for it every day the rest of our lives.

So you are suffocating from your Amway debt? How come I have no debt? You must have done something wrong or are just lying. A lot of the anti-Amway stories I come across are either hype or the result of the excuses people make. But thanks for your excuses because you have openly allowed me to keep more of the money to myself.

What a piece of shit you are coming on here and declaring us liars.

You couldn't possibly know what we went thru and for how long we went thru it; what our losses were - and not just financial. That would have been much easier to get over.

We are forever changed b/c of amway/wwdb/quixtar/team.

Until you've worked (and I mean worked this biz) 6 nights/wk., get 5 new names every day, forsake every family obligation and decency known to man, flip off your boss, and declare for years that anyone who doesn't get in is a 'loser,' get the hell out of our sandbox. Run back to your upline mommies and daddies and tell them how you really told us!

Anonymous@3:34 PM is a loser. I doubt he has a single down line. He is the typical Amway Zealot, trolling anti-amway sites and blogs making moronic comments, then crawling back to his loser life.

Hey guys, what's up? I'm proud to be a piece of shit, not just any shit but exquisite shit!
So, you're forever changed because of Amway? Give me five! That's the way! You rock! You're winners! At least in your own ways...
So... let's break this down:
1) get 5 new names every day... why just 5? choose whatever number you want to but you must have at least one name every day, no name = no business that day
2) forsake every family obligation and decency known to man... you mean TV time, junk food eat out, average living, no goals to surpass the commonly experienced struggles of 95% of families and you call that family obligations? I would rather put those on the back-burner so that I can enjoy family life first class as a result of my good fruits.
3) flip off your boss... hell yeah! I'm my own boss, I accept no other boss above me. Do you? That's why you have a problem with point #2... your boss has conditioned your mentality and lifestyle.
4) declare for years that anyone who doesn't get in is a 'loser,'... most of those who don't get in have no clear vision or goal, they live for today, there is no tomorrow and then when hardship comes they blame why the government doesn't do anything for them... it reminds me of what John F. Kennedy used to say 'ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country'... it seems to me that you and others who found a reason why Amway is a scam is because of the former 'ask what Amway can offer to me instead of ask what I can offer through Amway'
5) get the hell out of our sandbox... I'm glad that you did. Amway is not your sandbox, you made it so. Thus, why be in it? You take space and nothing else.
6) Run back to your upline mommies and daddies and tell them how you really told us... my mommy and daddy also think that Amway is a scam so I ran away from them and am proud of it. Let's say that my upline is my Amway mentor and that I have no mommy and daddy... my real father is in Heaven and His name is Jesus Christ. He made me in His image and my 'parents' are the biological vehicle through which I came to be. Sounds shocking eh? To most people it does because heck, they still think that they have evolved from monkeys for millions of years!

I started reading Anonymous piece of shit's post and thought at first it was someone else trying to be funny. Quite frankly the whole post is hilarious. Who in their right mind would sign up with this guy? The entire post is just nonsensical Amway crap. I especially like the evolution lesson at the end.
What a Loser and what a great representation of the low level moron pieces of crap that come here and criticize our comments based on years of experience in the business, using a grade 4 vocabulary.

I'm not normal; I'm paranormal. It's the short form for extraordinary people who accomplish extraordinary things. And they aren't the norm... you know that... that's why their percentage is realistically low. So why bother? Have fun journeying with the 95%! I have great fun with the remaining 5!

The anonymous is the one and same anon from Scarborough Canada who left me threats of violence on this blog. Therefore, his claims to be part of God's family is questionable at best. The Bible doesn't say you should go around threatening others.

he's an impostor, which is why he keeps changing his name. in fact, amway is full of impostors.

Hey anonymous.. so what is so cool about the "5%." What do you have that's so much better and enriching than the "95%." How much do you make from Amway? Why should I join?
