Does anyone know anything about Amway corp? It stands for american way started in 1959, and claims to make a lot of people wealthy by only redirecting they shopping from traditional buying to buying from your "own" business and introducing other people to the business.

Sorry, but NK's claim is neither crap, stupid or false. One definition of a shil is:

a person who publicizes or praises something or someone for reasons of self-interest, personal profit, or friendship or loyalty

Now doesn't that describe what you are doing? Now I will state, that there is a more pejorative definition that implies dishonesty. So I can understand your ire in being referred to as a shill.

I may be wrong, but I'm pretty certain NK wasn't using the world "shill" in a manner simply to indicate I'm an (unpaid) supporter of Amway.

NeedKarma

Yes I was.

And using a term that is normally meant in a derogatory way adds what to the conversation? It was pretty obvious I'm an Amway supporter from the post, wasn't it?

IBOfightback, Do you make enough money not work? at which level are you e.g Platinum, etc..?

Well I love thier products, know people making money selling it, and know it is like any MLM product, alot of people don't understand the hard work involved in selling and for every 100 that start seldom does 1 stay in it and do it.

Fr-Chuck, so you do like the products?

trueblooe

you will get a lot richer by doing hard work and you will not loose you friends by inviting them a to amway meeting good luck you will need that and by the way don't say you are not interested in the product they are designed to wait for that answer and counter it
try saying to the guy or girl who is trying to suck you in it is a great product but i am real busy at the moment and don't have time to sell it you will save your sanity and your friends

Well, out here on guam, we do have Amway distributors. If i am not mistakened, Amway has been going by the name of Quickstar for the past couple of years. My sister Rosemarie (dec.), was an Amway member. She has built a house with the money that she had earned in her business. I'm not going to lie to you, but it doe 'take money to make money.' You must invest some of your own capital to establish your business in Amway. Amway is about selling basic commodaties. I have grown up watching my mother and my sister work on their 'Amway thingy' on the along side their full-time jobs. I think of it in the perspective of 'Myspace.' The more people that start up their own shares under you, the more comission you will get. It's all a matter of building your matrix of partners. I hope I was of any help to you.

So, your sister is doing good for herself Ha?
