The truth about AMWAY is ugly. The entire wealth of the founders and their top recruiters was built not on the sale of products, but of inspirational tapes and books they produced. Giving away some of his ill-gotten gains might have eased his guilt, but the guy made enough on others gullibity and insecurity to fatten up the camel he's got to ride through the eye of the needle.

So what's wrong with making money off books and tapes? Sounds like you feel like you got scammed somehow.

EXCUSE ME BUT IGNORANCE IS NOT BLISS...If you have no knowledge of what you are talking about, then,SHUTUP. The AMWAY Corp was founded as the product development and manufacturing arm of the American Way Association. These Association members distribute products at both wholesale and retail levels; wow what a revolutionary concept in a capitalist society.

I am now in the insurance industry and use the same tapes and books to train and motivate the sales force assigned to me. Our team is one of the top producing teams in are area; wonder why..FYI, no were not MLM, just a conventional sales force:

By the way, just some of the people the Van Andel's,DeVos' and the Yeager families brought in to indoctrinate us.

Ronald Wilson Reagan, George H.W.Bush, Neut Gingrich, Steve Forbes, Elizabeth Dole, Alan Keyes, Robert Kiosiki, Sugar Ray Leonard, Coach Tom Landry, Coach Lou Holtz, a Marine that lost an Eye, Arm and Leg in the first Gulf war; not withstanding the multitude of Evangelical Ministers.

Forgive me for my rant..but while I was building the business, I met people with more integrity and who cared for my success then anytime in my life. And if it wasn't for a 3.5 year divorce battle, I would still have a successful business.

And what is the matter with making money off of books and tapes?
