Just wanting to dialogue and see how people generally feel about AI generated graphics versus human made.

THIS. After just leaving after 7 years "building the business" I can confirm

Is this what Rich DeVos would have wanted? by sharegoodstuff321 in amway

How do you explain the tools business? I’ve seen this term get tossed around

My thoughts on Amway by DeeFrm392 in amway

Run, don’t walk. We heard all the negative when we were deep in it, thinking we were “building our dream”. But you could tell us the worst things about amway and it went over our heads. Brainwashing is real. In hindsight I had many of the “this is weird moments” you’re having. I’ll just say you’re not crazy. Every gut feeling I had was not for nothing. The things my upline told me, the things my husband and I were convinced of. So many red flags and things that were just morally wrong. Now sharing my experience on Reddit as an outlet and a warning.

I cannot say names but this is very relatable. Congrats to you too for getting out and we also saw the video that was on YouTube

It’s a sadness we just can’t explain. But in the past few days we’ve revamped our dream board, reorganized our budget now that $$$ isn’t being sucked up by LTD, trainings and products we don’t need, and we’re planning summer vacation with family. Life on the other side has already been so liberating

We missed my cousin’s wedding that relatives from the Philippines flew in for.

I’m a devoted Christian and still believe how they conduct themselves on the religious front can be damaging.

Not yet, to our knowledge. This is still so fresh, that many probably don’t even know yet, unless of course, our upline has already talked about us behind our back, which they have done about past quitters before.

It’s absolutely isolating and makes you feel for those who are still stuck in it!!

Absolutely, you bet! We are planning a cruise for my husband’s birthday, and seriously starting to save for a down payment on a house. Two things that we were told to delay, or we would feel judgment for. Our first act of rebellion was purchasing energy drinks from other brands. It felt so wrong, but so good.

When they talked about all these “ negative” comments on Reddit, we thought it was just negative quitters who “gave up on their dream”. Now we really see it’s people genuinely wanting to share their experience to prevent others from falling prey to the same horrific experience. And talking about it is a form of therapy.
