What is this Thing Called Amway?

[mundomusicaljge]

OTRO VIDEO ESTUPIDO,QUE LASTIMA QUE LOS AMERICANOS TENGAN TAN POCO CEREBRO,PERO CREO QUE SOY MAS ESTUPIDO YO POR MIRARLO

[babaganoosh555]

These arguments make me sick. If you don't like it, don't join. If you're curious and want to research then join. If you don't like the products get your money back, and if you don't like the business get your joining fee back! Yes, I am in Amway and although I believe it is a great way to make some extra money and potentially build a big business, I know it's not for everyone and we need to respect that decision. Some of my best friends are not interested at all in it but we're still mates

[artfuentes62]

waste of talent.....keep wasting your time.......amway will do 10 billion without your aproval anyhow!

[Mralieninvader]

you both are dumb

[piyinish]

there are two kinds of people winers and losers i am making over $2,000 monthly since 2001 

[ntrospect]

@piyinish You forgot the 3rd kind, those that are totally oblivious to any semblance of punctuation.

[stevekosvic1]

Failure is easy, Aquiring lots of money is never easy , even if you're stealing it. Scams? The entire educational system is a scam - that is if you want to be rich and free.You are taught to get a job, which is to be competitive not creative. Don't blame Amway or the "tools" for lack of success. There is a reason 97% of Americans are in debt and they're not all Amway losers

[nephew77]

This video was kinda funny was done by a third grader. I got involved in Amway in 1985 and became platinum in 1987. I have averaged $100,000 a year since 1993. That figure does not include any tool money. Thank God for the amway business!

[steveh777ify]

@nephew77 I was abducted by Aliens in 1992. They rewired my brain and now I earn just under $89Million a year from my portable Teleportation Business.

Thank God for the Zeta-Reticuli people.

[bandiit17]

@nephew77 Oh and let me guess you still kept your day job because heck you have extra time on your hands and you can use the extra 50 grand a year. Yeah that's the story they all tell.

[guyNbluejeans]

I've had a couple encounters during my life with these Amway folks. I always chuckle whenever I reflect on 'em.

[VinaAhrens]

Catchy tune, man. Be sure to check with beforeyoujoin. org on this.

[guyNbluejeans]

I can't think of a more dignified way to make a living.

[Atma505]

I have no idea what this video is implying, but +favorited for the music

[ImmortalAguilar911]

WAT AMWAY ALONG WITH THOSE Functions,Cd's and SPECIALLY THOSE " MOTIVATIONAL BOOKS" like Rich Dad Poor Dad, The Secret, Is Ok To Live The Plantation, Dont Let No One Still Your Dream ext

IS FREEING HUMANS FROM MODERN SLAVERY!

ASK UR SELF WHO?WHO? WOLD NOT WANT HUMANS 2 BE INDEPENDENT/ MOTIVATED 2 ACHIVE THERE DREAMS/ EDUCATED/ SLEEP TO DREAM NOT TO REST/ SHARING THIS PLANET AS HOLE AS ONE SINGLE ORGANISM LIVING IN HARMONY, STOP AND THINK! WHO? YOUR READY! CHECK OUT Jacque Fresco on Utube

[diamantesen2008]

ignorant,idiot,estuped,you are dien of envi...

[fercas1]

More than 80 countries, giving jobs for more than 13.000 peoples, what easy it's talk just for talk, Contact Amway and do research. Go Diamonds

[CorporateSwine]

Dick DeVoss, please shoot yourself

[metll66]

41 million dollars of his own cash couldn't buy Dickie the job. Oh well thats just chump change in his pocket. Maybe he should have gave it to the United way.

[bluwey8]

after read some of your comments, I think you got a very bad experience learning sucks lesson from your upline.

If u don't change, nobody can help u. Not alone amway, but any career in life.

all the best.

[bluwey8]

To WhatsAYak:

Haha oh really? Then what are you doing now? How much do u earn monthly? And had u bring your parents along for any overseas vacation? how often do u go? how much do u spend?

Have you ever think of doing some thing for your parents and made them proud?

Have you achieved that?

Tell me. When you gonna do that? When? the exact age, pal. Don't say one day i will.

That's what a loser says.

[WhatsAYak]

Quit acting like you know anything about what my parents want...but since you asked, I'm making a decent salary, and they ARE proud of me for following my dream of landing a successful radio career and doing something I genuinely enjoy...better than being some semi-literate, cliche-spouting soap salesman who spends his time pretending to be rich when he's prolly pawning household items to attend a function.

Keep drinking the Kool-Aid, but remember you'll just be thirsty as ever afterwards...

[WhatsAYak]

You were right about one thing, though: "one day I will" is indeed what losers say, that's why so many Ambots use it as their stock answer whenever you ask them if they've achieved a 6-figure income yet or when they'll be going Direct/Diamond! LOL

[animaladam5]

yea an 8.2 billion dollar debt free soap company heh? with ties with companies like best buy office debot dicks sporting goods ect..sponsoring the next Miss America beauty padgent for the next 5 years with their exclusive beauty products give me a break man..Robert Kiyosaki one of the worlds wealthiest ppeople wrote a book talking of Amway as one of the best companies, go do some research or something pal.

[stazandjeve]

@WhatsAYak ok then how do you explain the fact that my personal business coach in amway is a good friend of mine, graduated in my same class, and ive seen the checks of 80,000, and 120,000 and those were just bonuses? He was infantry in the army...not a doctor or lawyer...so why do you believe that he did it but nobody else can?

[interlink9]

Well all you anti Amway naysayers.

Here in the Uk its free to get involved with the business there is no more books and tapes only real bonus cheques for real hard earned work,so all your old arguments are just that old news.

[kadajettrussia]

Did you know that 99.9% of businesses fail anyway? So why label an amway business any differently. This is not some get rich quick scheme so if you don't want to work that you will not be in the .1%

[WhatsAYak]

Most businesses don't require you to buy overpriced books/CDs, attend rallies hundreds of miles away, only socialize w/like-minded people, give up all your free time, and be indoctrinated into a fixed system of political/religious beliefs.

[532jdub]

True that man! Well put! And plus didnt Amway get banned in the UK or restricted or something?

[WhatsAYak]

Thanks. :-) They didn't get shut down (pity), but must adhere to certain guidelines across the pond now.

[532jdub]

Gotcha. Well that is a pity. Were you involved previously with them too?

[WhatsAYak]

Prospected, but never joined...the idea of soliciting fam/friends didn't appeal to me, and I was much more concerned about getting my broadcasting career going...smartest move I ever made, apparently! LOL

[cathysugden]

Oh wise up on your news and get the facts. Check out the brand new Flagship Experience Center in London 10 mins from Charing Cross.

[MuseMadness]

most businesses don't yeild a residual ongoing growing income and teach wealth mentality instead of job or boss mentality. so don't worry about that stuff if you don't want to be wealthy :)

[WhatsAYak]

Go have some more Kool-Aid...I'll take keeping my indviduality over chasing promised wealth that'll never materialize, thanks.

[ineedsomescrilla142]

individuality? you mean working a job like millions of us citizens do? you mean having a boss tell you that you have to come in to work instead of go to your kid's play? you mean having your kids hate you when they grow up because your always at work? just like all government owned slaves, you all think its individuality that is at stake with such? you are by far the dumbest person i have heard talk with you "individuality" that says getting a job and working for someone=individuality. drop dead

[WhatsAYak]

Yet another shining example of how "Amway makes you a better person"...first off, I don't have kids, and my hours are flexible, so I could easily attend their functions and not be accused of "always being @ work"...how much time have you spent away from your family going to late night meetings, showing plans, and attending out-of-state functions? Oh, and you do have a boss: your upline (whose permission you prolly wouldn't sneeze without)...did you get your brain dried after it was washed? LOL

[WhatsAYak]

And when I talk about individuality, I mean:

- Not having to check upline before making every major decision in my life

- Voting/worshipping based on my personal views

- Spending my free time the way I want to

- Not limiting friendships solely to people who work in my field

- Being w/my family instead of attending late meetings and traveling to cult-like functions

...but you wouldn't know a thing about any of that, right?

[integrity195I]

look yak another condescending asshole who thinks because he has some cds and a kitchen full of over priced soap he is better then everyone! look asswaybot, you dont know what your talking about so run along get you 4 nos and quit! and join a christian therapy group! shit head!

[WhatsAYak]

"CDs and a kitchen full of overpriced soap"...that made me LOL, but it's true, especially that first part...as I've said before, they claim that Amway can help you become a better person, so why are these IBOs the most condescending, judgmental people you'll ever wanna meet? Apparently it doesn't occur to them that even if you're not in Amway, you can still live a happy/successful life.

[animaladam5]

lol soap? thats like 40 years ago the company is so much beyond the point of soap man LOL, famous figures and sports teams that are the biggest in the world swear by the items they have to be the best, soap was the started the door to door service 50 years ago...things change my friend, would you say you were the same as when u came out of your mothers womb??

[WhatsAYak]

Found the Sanborn Singers' LP (Sing Out for Free Enterprise) in a PA thrift shop last year...mostly covers of standards, along w/a detailed explanation of how they got involved w/Amway on the back cover.

[stevenbrla]

To all the great people who are currently Distributors: I was, for 5 years, and like you, never netted a dime, but I sure pumped a lot money into Amway, and into Diamond's pockets via tools. Drove tons of miles, showed and sponsored tons of people, and listened to thousands of tapes. Still a net loss. Oh yea, lost my J-O-B too. (only to have to find another one) I did survive, and now own my own biz, which I netted $1000 my first month...$12400 so far May 2009. Feeling strong? Walk away!

[daigo9999]

Right on! Good to hear that someone managed to escape the beast that is Amway and build a REAL business! Good wishes and hope great things happen for you!

[cherokeeman000]

What's the business??

[stevenbrla]

Just plain ole bidness. No corporate header, sponsorship, etc. In some ways a lot like amway... no inventory, no employees, never buy product before the cusomer orders it, (bonus: never pay for it until after customer pays for it, unlike amway)... Like amway, no glamour, sounds boring, but I like the freedom..

[stevenbrla]

AND NO WEEKEND SEMINARS!! and no freaking UPLINE to be buggin me!BUT, I do have to sell... not "use the product".I've actually considered selling the idea to those far enough away not to compete... but so simple, who'd be willing to buy it?good luck cherokeeman in whatever you choose to do!

[plectrum100]

Contact Amway and do research.

[Rebelx1969]

I hate Amway . But at this point I would take DeVos over the mess that Jennifer Granholm has made of this state . 15% unemployment and business that can't get out the this state fast enough . Go to Ohio where it's know to be the 4th best state to do business in . And this is for those who think I'm some Republican hack think again . I call it as I see it and I don't own a business . You can't blame Bush for every thing . We had the both house's of congress since 2006 . No To Grandmole ....

[blackwolf009]

AMWAY IS A BUNCH OF BULLSH!T PLAIN & SIMPLE!!! I was involved with it for nearly 4 years so I ought to know.

[WhatsAYak]

Just like I said, notice how no one directly refutes any of the points this vid makes, resorting instead to childish name-calling and regurgitating the usual tired MLM talking points against critics...can't you do better than that?

[E3Marketing]

Someone has way too much time on their hands.maybe you should find a better way to use your non productive time. Maybe spend more time making friends or spend it with your family.

[WhatsAYak]

As opposed to spending productive time watching a video you're not even interested in? LOL

[strategicinfluence]

If you're watching this video you're obviously interested in working from home. Its very important that you take the time to research the various opportunitys available as scams are everywhere. A legitimate work at home opportunity will offer you job training and support. If this is something you are interested in, and you wish to learn more about Internet marketing and working from home, please visit our page.

[ladaviking]

I can't believe you're saying such things. Surely brain-washable people on't exist nowadays. I saw some serious personality changes in people I knew getting sucked in. They used to "lie and look at you"

[WilsonWu0707]

Amway is a good business

I like it

[Pighood]

Michiganliberal....change your tampon. It's saturated.

[dudeosouth2]

scam

[FELFETO]

BUNCH OF LOSERS!!!

[fuscomblinda]

sfigati non avete capito un cazzo

[timothy10112]

people don't understand that it's not a pyramid scheme it's an equal opportunity.

IF YOU MAKE MONEY OUT OF THE BUSINESS ITS GONNA BE YOUR FAULT.

AND IF YOU DONT MAKE MONEY OUT OF THE BUSINESS GUESS WHAT, YOUR FAULT.

Some people are going to hate me but it is an equal opportunity i'm 17 and i've seen people with a very negative attitude about it make nothing from it. I've also seen my dad from having nothing to now being a diamond in i.d.a with three diamonds in his business.

[burson007]

ur blind and brainwashed

[Joeythatoneguy]

your ignorant dude and brainwashed by the people who's always complaing about gas prices and saying some ignorant junk about amway or quixtar at the same time

[burson007]

ok, well i'm not the one now not buying cds that tell me to buy more cds, going to the same old raw raw opens, and raw raw functions, the raw raw just keeps you in the system, and notice they kinda all want you to act the same it pretty much a cult business

[thewaytosuccess]

tomothy 10112

...Any lack of success you have in network marketing, is not your fault. The cards are stacked against you before you even join.

Unless you are a 'RED' personality or a cut throat salesperson. You don't stand a stand a hope in hell of being successful if you follow the quickstar system or any 'family and friends' system...sorry

I would challenge ANYONE on that...

[WhatsAYak]

Seems to be quite a few GOPers who have some connection to "the business"...there's also:

- Ralph Reed, who's appeared at several functions...he was revealed to have been involved in the Indian gaming scandal w/lobbyist "Casino Jack" Abramoff AND involved his former org, the Christian Coalition, in it

- Doug Wead, political strategist for Bush Sr. and Jr.

- Televangelist/failed 1988 GOP Pres. candidate Pat "Liquor Officer" Robertson

Any others not mentioned in the vid?

[WhatsAYak]

Notice how no one directly refutes any points made by the video itself, instead recycling the usual stock responses about how whoever made it must be "dreamless" or "a broke loser"...can't you do better than that??

[btwokyu]

I have done extensive research on the internet concerning MLM organizations, and I can't help but realize that Amway and other companies like it are not all they're cracked up to be. Most people lose money with MLM's. Not because they're lazy, but because the MLM business structure is seriously flawed. It's a fact. The only people that make money are those at the top, and the only way that they can make money is off the people at the bottom, who don't make money. Pyramid scheme. It's the truth.

[richelort4]

Sounds like someone has nothing better to do with their time than THIS, when they probably know nothing about it, don't have any dreams for their own life or a way to achieve them, so it's just easier to be an idiot about what other people are doing for their own lives and families. Anyone can be a critic. I'd rather do something worthwhile with my time.

[WhatsAYak]

So what are you doing watching this vid?? LOL...and did it ever occur to you that maybe it's possible to be happy w/o devoting half your life to succeeding in MLM?

[provaocontrario]

I agree with you! This people are so stupid that they just comment with no knowledge about it. They are just a bunch of idiots with no dreams at all and no capacity to prove themselfs

[earthmover00]

and your a brainswashed ambot without a mind to go make money in this country of freedom, you words indicate you are not smart enough to go make money at any business except one that tells you what to do and no i WOULD NOT VOTE FOR THIS SPED AND HIS SPOILED BRAT BULLSHIT EITHER!!!

[resistanceunion]

Isnt that one of your leaders just left Quixar and told that its a scam .. well i would get concerned about it ;)

[bugzy213]

amway/quixtar is no scam IM 17 AND IM A ZAPHIRE LEVEL

MY PARENTS ARE MEXICANS N THEY STILL CAME UP AS EMERALDS SO FUCK HATERS ! LIVING IN L.A.

[Drizzt490]

Liberals...now that's a scam!

[Metralogia]

I am not in amway and have no relations with it, but I am a lider in another MLM company. I can speak for MLM and say whoever made this video obviously was not commited and one of those people who always saw the cup half empty. Maybe your upline did not duplicate you properly etc... all in all a person with a dream does not quit and make it. People have made it with amway and I heard cassettes of people who made it with amway. Persistence is the main key not quitting.

[achivers]

how put the blame from your own faillure to amway because you would listen to you upline you should considre if you have some patient you ll have make it

[passionwagon33]

been there done it lost money tapes books functions tickets hotels traveling the people that make money are the ones selling tapes books hotel rooms i was nieve maybe i didnt have much so thought what i got to lose believe me i lost what little i had my lifestyle was hotels tickets book lol oh well live and learn

[timwalsh60634]

awmay is a scam

[ibo4ibo]

prove it

[WhatsAYak]

That shot of Bill Cullen @ :28 reminds me of a line Game Show Network used in their VO promos for Pyramid: "It's the Pyramid Scheme that REALLY pays off!"...more than I can say for Amway, LOL.

[capitalistinside]

So true. . . I tried to become a lawyer when I was younger, but I failed. That means: only a select few will become lawyers. Being a lawyer is a scam! Don't try to become a lawyer because only a small handful can really make it big! Kay?! Now, I'm a successful construction worker. I get paid a whopping TWELVE dollars an hour! I don't have to worry about being scammed trying to be a lawyer! I'd rather make my boss' construction company rich because of MY hard work! Beat that so-called "lawyers"!

[Turieb]

This is silly, now I don't like Alticor as much as the next guy, but you're harping on him for being wealthy? Why not attack his political views?
