I was in AMWAY for a year in the early 2000's....except it had such a bad reputation that they rebranded it as Quickstar (it was their new "online" version of Amway.

Things just never sat well with me. The speakers were fake, the products weren't that great and they pushed the "tools" waaay more than the products.

Soooo, I went online and found a book called Merchants of Deception about a guy who ruined his life with Amway and then wrote about it to help others escape.

What Amway doesn't tell people is that they've gotten in trouble with Congress in the past for having a business that's profit is based off of tools to promote the business rather than the products that the business claims to sell. This is illegal. Basically a few choice people at the top of the pyramid get rich off of pushing the tools on the thousands of downliners below them. It's a cult and a total scam.

So glad I got out.

My parents got into it in the 80’s and made some decent money on it…. My brother who lived in Michigan at the time made over 100,000 with them until he decided to quit…… I never got into it. Used some of the products which were decent but very expensive.
