Get On Your Knees! Submit To Upline!
One thing my sponsor/upline told me was I would be uber successful in the business because I did not have a huge ego. That I could submit to upline as man submits to God. Looking back, I realize how delusional my former upline was. But I cannot give him all of the blame. I am certain that someone higher up in the WWDB organization taught his this concept. Basically, submitting pretty much meant we did as we were told, or we did as upline advised. The part that sucked about all of this was doing what we were told to do, only to end up taking responsibility for any failures. As an IBO, it's like I was basically trained to be a slave for upline. My sponsor actually held PV contests at times and the winner got to drive upline to the airport (At the IBO's own expense). This was considered an honor and would get you edified at the next nite own or group meeting. Now that I am out of Quixtar/Amway, I can see that this was a bunch of bullshit.

Derek, are you kiddig? This buisness has been operated and ran for 50 years under those circumstances?
IBO stands first off for (Independant) so you really dont have to operate your business like your upline does, Amway does not require you to listen to a thing your upline says, only the rules of conduct and that is pretty much simple.
Then Its (Business Owner) meaning you are the owner of your own franchise of a larger coorperation ( not your upline ) but of Amway. Honestly how long were you listening to this upline of yours? If you really thought thats how the business is ran you dont need to venture out of your JOB cause its far too dangerous for you. See me at whyasecondincome.blogspot.com
Wow, Amway sells franchises now? Pray tell, which territory do you have?
I love watching Ambots try to spout business terms for their non-franchises!!
We're about due for "business mentality"!!!
Levi, the indedent label is a myth. Amway has many restrictions and unless you go against your upline, you are never independent. Amway is not a franchise. If it were you would sign a franchise agreement with Amway. There would be no LOS groups like WWDB if Amway was a franchise. Please get your facts straight.
This is called private franchising. Similar to a traditional franchise but without the same limits. As a traditional franchisee, can you open up your own store? No, only the franchisor can. If you do, you're kicked out. You don't have that problem with private franchising. So, if all you know is traditional franchising, it's time for you to unlearn some of the stuff you learned in order to understand private franchising.

Amway is not private franchising. That is a buzzword used by upline to try and bring credibility to their BS business. Go and shows us a link where Amway says they are selling franchises?
Show you a link? Why would I have to do all the work for you? Why can't you go ahead and do it yourself? The fact that you don't, tells me that you're lazy and had the same attitude in the business "show me the money without me having to do it all, that way I know it works" before you quit. Obviously, nobody bothered to show you it all, they helped you along but expected you to make it and then you got mad and started this BS blog after you quit. I'm not going to show you anything. That's your homework. If you don't want to do it, feel free to quit again. There's no limit to quitting just as there's no limit to winning.
Private franchising, interactive distribution, prosumer, business mentality....these buzzwords are not new. In fact, I heard the private franchising line back in the 90's.
An IBO is an authorized reseller of Amway products and product lines they carry.
If you think you're that "indepedent" - go tell Amway that you are going to advertise in the local paper and also sell other product lines like Avon or Shaklee thru your IBO business....
BTW where's the link - you're making the claim! Another wannabe who gets their panties in a bunch when asked to back up their claim. Ask your upline what thought to parrot next.
You can't run with the big dogs if you pee like a puppy!
Amway is not a franchise. There is no franchise agreement to sign when you decide to become an IBO. An IBO is more like a commissioned salesperson. If Amway was a franchise, then IBO training would come from Amway and not some BS group like WWDB.
Funny, I can't seem to find any definition on investopedia.com for "private franchise". If you don't know what investopedia is look it up...I can't do everything for you now can I? But please note that it is highly reputable.
In fact I can not find any definition of private franchise anywhere other than other MLM sites. I did find this though...
http://ezinearticles.com/?Private-Franchising-is-not-Real-a-Real-Franchise&id=34332
I have also been all over Amway's site and no where do they make any metion in any way shape or form that they sell any kind of franchise much less a private franchise....http://www.amway.com/en/start-a-business/how-amway-works
Not to mention there is not much talk about a prosumer except in the Amway walk of life.
Amway is not a franchise. It they were, they would have a franchise fee and a prospectus of some sort. This is another IBO myth,
"Gina prove your worth. show me your P/L statement and savings account and we will determne wether you are a fraud or not.
Derek, you stopped at franchise. what about the rest of what I said?
Anno, speaking of paties in a bunch, what do you do? punch a time clock? is that some sort of gauratee that you wont be a failure?
here is a word for you, conflict of interest. thats why I would not be able to sell avon or shakley. if i had a Mc donalds would they give me the rigts to sell burger king?
Hey Levi - "conflict of interest" is 3 words BTW. So there goes the "independent" label, huh?
If I owned a McDonald's - I would tell people I'm an owner of a McDonald's, not try to use cutesy terms to try and snow people. An IBO number is not comparable a McD's in any way, shape, or form.
Yup, I punch a clock - so what? Who cares? Criticize it all you want, doesn't bother me! Though it seems to bother you.... a lot!!!!
Do you pay my bills? Do you have a DD-214?? (since you want to play the Judgemental game)
Somehow IBOs are convinced that just being an IBO equals success. Ignore the facts at your own peril.
Levi, you punch a time clock too, don't you? If I recall correctly, you also punched out license plates at one time as well?
If you truly want to have a discussion on conflict of interest, then let's talk about who profits from and supplies motivational materials to IBO's.
You should quit slamming jobs Levi. After all, yours is funding your pretend business.
What's wrong with motivational materials? Is motivation wrong? If you don't like it, it sure is! Saty unmotivated then and no matter how much motivational material comes your way, you won't make use of it. This material is intended only to those who already are self motivated. Otherwise, it's useless.
Levi is slamming jobe but he would be destitute without one. He admitted his Amway business didn't net any profit.
Anon, there is nothing wrong with motivation, but what IBOs are sold is not motivation. They are sold the key to Amway success. Uplines are deceptive about what they self servingly promote.
There is nothing wrong with motivational materials in and of itself.
If one is "self-motivated" - why would they need motivational materials??
The problem lies in endless buying of these materials but no real success comes from it. How many books/CDs does one need? Are those material directly translating into a bigger business and more profit??
Increasing profits and a healthly, growing business should be enough motivation in itself!
Results matter.
Well enjoy your jobs, in the end we will see who is laughing. will social security save you? do you even have a retirement plan? most jobs cant give you retirement security so I choose to do something different. but just because I choose amway I get bashed by the losers who quit and are now disgruntled at the bully who got them to listen in the first place. you all should never ventre into the big world its too much for you. yeah rocket I did time whats your point? you think you are better because of that? what does that have to do with wanting to accquire more for my family. A job for me does not cut it, for you all maybe it does. but only time is going to tell if you made a good decision or not. but then again you will just learn to live with less and hope the government will take care of you. but to sit here disgruntled and making false statments about a persons net income is just stupid. I make a net income from this business. and as for being destitute if I did not have the job well how about any of you? can you quit your job today either? did not think so, so while i have a job I know one day it is going to end and when it ends there will not be enough money to sustain my lifestyle, I will not learn to live on less that is just weak I choose to take my business ventures and make something out of it. now i will gladly keep you updated as to how things are going but I doubt any of you will really care. but by the way any of you saving for retirement? you can lie all you want but statisticly most americans are unable to save what they will actually need to retire. but joe you did say you like walmart, well you all could be greeters together. oh so cool.
Wow. I didn't realize what a frightened little man Levi is - living in abject fear every day must really suck for him.
Oh Jesus, Levi. Enjoy your jobs? We'll see who is laughing?
To answer your questions but not repeat them to attempt to sound smart (like you are by copying your upline) I will retire comfortably, I do have savings, and I will not be dependent on the government.
You have been more dependent on the government than I ever have. When you were doing time, you relied on them. I never have. Yet here you are trying to bash jobs, call people losers, and telling people that the world is too big for them. That was my point.
I hope you do keep us updated, but you likely won't once you realize that you are not going to reach the success you are shooting for.
You'd be better off getting a second job.
You'd be away from your family less, and are guaranteed at least something.
This business is not your salvation Levi. Sorry.
rocket, you're pathetic because you tell other people that they won't reach their success no matter what. That's what you believe and no wonder that what you've accomplished in life measures no higher, no lower than just that. Your negativity does nothing but to steal, rob and destroy. You operate much like satan does.
How is Amway helping Levi? He admits he isn't making a net profit in Amway. Tell us Levi, how is making nothing helping you secure your future and helping your famil finances?
Anonymous, you're pathetic because:
1. You don't see the obvious conflict of interest in the motivation business
2. You don't see the ridiculous pricing structure of the products
3. You consider opposing viewpoints satanic.
I said that Levi will not succeed in Amway, not fail in life. Get real, and understand what I'm saying before you quote my words, dipshit.
If this is such a great deal, where's all the "leaders" here?
Why is a peon like you defending it?
Your blind optimism is exactly what your upline wants, because it helps them steal, rob, and destroy low level IBO lives. I can provide case studies to demonstrate my point.
Can you provide evidence that I operate like Satan?
No? Then it is you that is pathetic.
Let me know when you have any notable success.
rocket
1. No, I don't see any conflict of interest in the motivation business.
2. No, I don't see that either.
3. That applies when such views are taken out of context on purpose and yours are.
Why do you say that Levi won't succeed in Amway? Is that a fact? Maybe that did apply to you because you set your mind on not making it for whatever reason. Levi isn't you and you aren't Levi. So don't impose your perceptions on others as if they were living in your skin. Besides what's with the "dipshit" remark? Are you maybe too deep in shit? Satan is for sure. Have you followed the narrow path or the highway for comfort?
You don't see a conflict of interest when something you make a profit on is required for success? Really? You don't?
You don't see a problem with $50.00 cases of water?
My views are not new, nor are they limited to just me thinking them. Lots of people feel how I do.
I say Levi won't suceed in Amway because he isn't going to. What's your level?
Again, where are your leaders? Why the low level schleps here saying how great it is, but with no sucess to prove it with?
Thank God I'm not Levi, and I'm not imposing anything, I'm stating the obvious!
Dipshit? I think you are one, and that's because you used tapespeak on me.
I'm not in deep shit at all, are you? If you are buying motivational tapes/CDs you are.
Yeah, ok, I'm Satan. Whatever you say. I'm not sure what your remark about the narrow path and highway crap means, but I've worked hard for everything I have, which is what you Amway knobs seek.
Security, money, happiness, and sense of worth.
What's your pin level?
"I say Levi won't suceed in Amway because he isn't going to. What's your level?"
wow just because you tell me huh? yeah you can shut me down sure buddy. I will be here doing this business longer than you will care to blog
"Dipshit? I think you are one, and that's because you used tapespeak on me."
since you all play word associations here then would we call whatever you say cattlespeak?
"Thank God I'm not Levi, and I'm not imposing anything, I'm stating the obvious"
yeah you should cause you would have definatly never made it as far as i have.
By the way rocket, whats your level? How is your job? care to elaborate on how grand you are doing? maybe post a couple past bank statements and prove us wrong "can you really get ahead with a job?" whats in your savings account for the past 3 months? has it been slowly increasing? most americans cant even pay their current costs of living let alone put away anything to save so tell me how grand is your job? cause you claim that we are not making it and we never will, well are you making it? what happens when your job stops? can you survive? most americans could go maybe 3 months out without a job on the savings they have in the bank (that took them at least 1 year to save). So while you are downing people who strive to bring in a safety net how are you doing?
Hey joe are you just unable to read or are you that stupid? I said I make a profit, if i chose to take that profit and put it in the bank I would net 2 to 3 hundred per mo thats 2400 to 3600 per year if thats what I wanted from this business. but since it is not I choose to re- invest it is that simple moron. can you please not twist what we say just to make your side sound correct. you really look stupid when we have to call you out on it.
joe how much do you make per year? whats your cost of living look like? do you have a bank statement that shows you are able to save money? or is it going out as fast as it is coming in? show me a P/L report on your household income vs expenses. you might be the 3 percentile of americans who can get by but I said might. show me how working a job is going to secure my family.
Whats a name like rocket anyways what are you 18 did you just finish school and your teaher get your paties all in a bunch thinking you could do anything you want to do and all you could do is come online and bash peoples dreams. I dont bash people I bash people who bring down society by thier actions that destroy hope and dreams that all of us want to have but some like you all have given up and quitted on your dreams so now the rest of us cant have it.
anno, frightened? and yet you blog ananomous.
boy I have seen thigs that would make a strong man lose heart trying to belive.
Levi,
You made my point better than I could! Enjoy your fearful life!
Levi....I already have posted my P/L many times....now its your turn. You are just on a rant because you don't keep one and it has been made very very clear by your posting of random useless numbers in the past. What do you have to lose? You arethe one who thinks the biz is great and that we critics are wrong and don't know what we are talking about so why would I have to prove myself? Check all of my information...all of it...in any place and you will see I am far from a fraud. You are resorting to school yard antics in an effort to sideline the issue that you have no idea about basic business tools and that you are yet another run of the mill IBO who is losing money despite doing everythingh as your told.
It's you who says the biz works and that it is the answer to living well....so its on you to prove it. You want to see my P/L then do a search....I have posted it before under these very circumstances...you didn't think you were original did you?
And I am not showing anyone my savings account....that doesn't even make any sense....the two don't even relate....just more solid proof that you have no clue how a P/L works much less a business.
Gina, seriously show me your P/L, I would not ask for it if I had seen it before. and by the way like I said just how successful is your financial venture? care to show what your savings looks like? are you just above water or are you on the yacht? cause like I said most americans can barely afford to save let alone keep their head above the financial waters so tell me how are you doing? cause maybe we should do what you do.
If you cant understand why I would ask for those two pieces of information then maybe you are still fresh to this business world and just out of college with your text book notes trying to make yourself sound good. you ask if we in Amway are 1# making a profti over our losses, and 2# can it pay the bills and leave you with something left over to save. well I wonder the same thing about your venture. maybe we should do what you do? But maybe you are just like most americans, barely able to keep their head above water, paying the bills but unable to save. so all I want to know is does your venture do more than pay the bills (if it does that) you can black out all the personal information you want I am only asking to see a savings gain per month. I am willing to bet if you can save anything after bills it comes out to about 2,000 per year on average.
Levi, your choice of not banking your profit is certainly your decision. My question is why you choose not to keep the profit?
How much do I earn? Is that really relevent to the discussion? I'll help you though, I earn more than the average American, and I have enough savings to last me several months should I have a loss of income.
See, I can talk about my income. Why do IBOs make wild income claims and then refuse to back them up with even a little discussion?
But Joe that is not proof you say you do while the majority of americans are not. what makes you not the majority? how much you earn is very relevent to the discussion. when we talk about our income you want proof so where is our proof?
By the way, if I thought all I wanted was the extra 200 to 300 per month then I would keep the profits (which on some months I will admit I use it for pleasures like more tatoo's) when I am obviously not satisfied or secure with 200 to 300 per month to take care of my family.
LOL....you think because I refuse to show you my personal bank account its because I am "fresh" to the business world? LOL...
You are getting desperate and it shows.
The fact that you are asking for my personal finances shows that you are not even in the business world. I live well and am happy with what I have...for this reason I don't need to pretend and insist on letting other people see it. I have no debt other than a mortgage...a mortgage for a fairly large house might I add...I just bout a brand new bunkhouse camper...outright. Both my husband and I drive newer, what we consider nice cars that we bout outright as well. I travel all over...and am in Europe at least two times a year. Anything else you need to know? You want the square footage of my home? You want to know how many and how big all my flatscreen TVs are? Did you want to know how many game systems I have? How many blue-ray players I have?
The fact that you have started to rant about seeing my P/L...like so many other IBO's before you, just proves that you do not keep track of your expenses and have no clue what your business is doing. Thats text book physc...
Like I said...I have shown it before...and I am not the one who is defending my wacky business methods...you are. Although I don't need to prove it, I have...those that need to prove it, refuse. You don't need to see my P/L to know that what I say is the truth....like I said many times before....I encourage you to not take my word for it and LOOK IT UP. I don't care how you do...just do it...
How can you make any claim to the contrary ofr anything I present if you don't look it up to know whether what I say is even valid/
You have nothing....and you know it...and everyone can see it.
Levi, the difference is very clear. You and others are promoting Amway. Thus the burden of proof is yours, to show that Amway works.
I am not advising you to get a job like mine so you can live my lifestyle. Do you see the difference?
Gina Stop trying to sound educated we know you got some college courses under your belt you can leave the who's who in business at the door. where am I gonna find your P/L report? why dont you just send me an email of your P/L report so I can see for myself? Your big words LOOK IT UP mean nothing to me. does using capitol letters make you sound better? is it the equivalent to shouting?
what just proves that I dont keep track of my expenses? For your information I use Microsoft money as far as creating a buget that I use quite efficiently. JUST POST YOUR P/L unless you really dont keep one.
Joecool if I had a job like yours I might not need to try a business like Amway so do show me how your job is secure enough to not need a second income since you can easily pay your bills and save each month for emergencies and Retirement. Post a P/L and Savings (it does not need to be a bank account) Show me your budget is able to do what you say you can do.
Gina that is all I ask of you too.
Levi, I don't have a P/L. I have a job, not a business. I don;t have profits. I have a salary.
Joe, really stop acting dumb. lets make this simple for you how does your job affect your Income vs expenses? you dont have to have personal information just a budget outlook that shows you have comfort room after expenses in order to live the way you say you live. maybe then we might see the light quit amway and do your carrer. seriously. i am not joking here. many american are looking for that something better, you sound like you got it.
Levi = IBOFB Jr.
Not Levi = IBOFB?
LOL....see Levi...you have nothing. You are getting increasingly angry.
Oh and I don't have a few college courses under my belt I have a bona fide degree. Big difference. And of course the words LOOK IT UP mean nothing to you...you wouldn't want to admit that you know nothing and have no idea what you are doing and actually looking information up would confirm what you already sub-consciously know. Prove that if I post my P/L that you will post yours. Many have said it and once I have they haven't held up their end...in fact they disappear....hmmmm on second though maybe I should post it right away....
Gina you laugh where there is nothing to laugh about, you seem more like you are trying to distract the readers than you are being real. Bonafide huh? yeah, I dont believe you. you would have to show me. I have told you how I keep my P/L report laid in along with my household's income and expense sheet showing both incomes from Amway and from my job as an Accountant, then Expenses from My business Advertising and Tools, and my inevitable cost of living expneses. try me.
No way Levi is an "accountant" - no accountant or bookkeeper would do as he just described above. Total BS!
Unless his degree is from "Close cover before striking" University!
Funny how now his response is now IBOFB-speak vs the rambling run-on mis-spelled pseudo-words tirades.
Levi, first you said your profit was 200 or 300, but on another thread, you said you sold 200 or 300 worth of goods. Which is it? Selling 200 is not the same as 200 profit.
Are you kidding me? you can try all you want to make me look like a liar, a fraud or even like IBOFB, But twisting the words from my posts or misleading these readers does not change the facts
and by the way anon how do you do your budget then? I guess there must only be one way huh? you got to be kidding me if a person cant do their budget however they want as long as your liabilities and your assets collum balance at 0 you are good. if I needed to back track incase it did not that is what ledgers and journals are for.
And the only reson for having my "business" laid in with my household is that it really is not that big. uh, how hard is it to track a 200 - 300 profit and then mark the expenses you use it on? the only other thing is to keep track of the purchases which range from 900 - 1200
an Idiot is what you are anon
Levi, how many people have you sponsored so far?
2 of my customers have become IBO's, and One joined straight in as an IBO so total 3 none with my recruiting to do the business just 2 saw they would save even more money and 1 thought he would sell too
If these IBO's joined to buy and save money (??), they are basically customers aren't they?
yeah whatever you need to hear buddy you are the expert.
Why would you keep your business P/L with your income from your job and your household expenses? That doesn't even make sense.
Yet more proof that Levi is just another silly run of the mill IBO who doesn't track expenses and is wishing on a pipe dream.
Yep you sure got us Levi....I am sure Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and Donald Trump have the same methods right? I mean if you do it then why wouldn't they? You know nothing Levi and you just reinforce that every time you make a post...I'll be sure to have my husband ask some of his MBA professors why they haven't taught about mixing business, household and job expenses into one!!!! I am sure it will get a good laugh....more than "profit before expenses" did.
Where is your degree from Levi? And in what?
Levi - ask the IRS about mixing home and business expenses...
Duhhhhh!!!!!!
BTW Levi - I get a real laugh watching you argue with yourself!
Keep it up!
you guys are so stupid. who said they were mixed if I posted my budget you could clearly see the simple dividing line between what is my Income in both and what is my expeses in both. The Irs just cares that you file it right at the end of the year you anonomous moron. I love how desperate you all are to discredit my abilities as a human being while I hear nothing as to what is it you do and how that is better than what I am doing. My income from my job is still seperate from the income from my buisiness I just dont waste the forms since my business would be likely more of a waste of paper on its own right now. I make sales totaling an average of 1300 per month and an average of 300 is profits that 3oo goes back into my businesses expense catagory. Its all on the same legders, jornals, and summarys but not part of the same totals, It's a whole seperate part yet just shares the room on the paper. maybe I realy would have to just go ahead and post it. and by the way my tax accountant at the end of last year had no problem understanding it. she actually complemented the fact that there was not such an elaborate amount of paper.
You all and your desperate attempt to make Ibos like me look bad when all this is a blog in which people come in here and say anything and can be anything really does not make anything out of the fact of who someone is.
one more thing gina the more you talk I am not sure about anyone else at this point but your lifestyle is sounding more and more skepitical as you go on. You really dont fit the bill for the type of person you are portryaing here. you are overdoing your pretending you might want to read your old posts and add the story together.
It doesn't matter how big or small a business is, you have to track everything on paper. That way, when you do your taxes, and the IRS decides to audit you, you can PROVE it. I'm not sure the IRS would agree that since your business was so small it would be a waste of paper to do so.
Besides, if you can't or won't do regular bookkeeping when you have a small business, you likely won't do it when it's big. At what point do you decide it's big enough to keep the books like a REAL business?
Levi, if you expect to be taken seriously at all, you should use spell check.
It's very difficult to believe you know what ledgers and columns are when you can't even spell them.
are you all just ignorant? It is stated at the bottom of all my ledgers and jornals in the extra space the small notes as far as income, purchases, and expenses. it is there just not on it's own papers since It would barely take up space. (save the tree's man)
and the spell check, whatever as if you never typed so fast that you mispell words. Is it so distracting that you cant understand me. that would explain you all and your ignorance.
*yawn* insult after insult, you can really kiss my a**.
legders, jornals
seriously are you kidding me? I get bashed for a simple typo? but you can read the rest of it right? idiots.
Man....there's Levi shrapnel all over the place here.
Get some Pursue and LOC here, stat!!!!
*clap* *clap* oh oh you are sooooo funny, oh wow I wish I could have thought of that oh tell me how I can do that? Levi shrapnel ha ha lol, you are the biggest Idiot to ever waste a comment space. really what the hell was that? Did you at least press enter and then look at what you posted? what are you 10? wow you took me back to grade school on that one.
Why are IBOs so reluctant to eve talk about their businesses or downline? What is the big secret?
Lighten up, Francis.....
Sheesh - I type...you dance like a little puppet.
Seargent Hulka?>
Hulkaburger franchises for sale!
Get 'em while their hot!
Hey! I'm commenter #70 - woo hoo!!!
Geez Levi, you complain about name calling but you;re the one doing the insulting ad nauseum here.
Nobody is discrediting you as a human being but rather as a supposed business owner. Where do you come up with such nonsense? And you said you keep your expenses together on various blogs.
Oh and you may want to check into the definition of profit because if any money you are generating (income) is being used to pay for expenses than that is not profit. Profit is the amount of income you have AFTER paying for all expenses. And in no way should you have your bsuiness expenses or income on the same P/L in any way with any other expenses from any other sources. It should always be seperate....and it does make a difference how one balances their P/L....there is only one way and the fact that you rant otherwise is yet more proof that you are in no way a business owner, or even know the basics of business. No one has to go out of their way to show it Levi, you do it all by yourself.
For the final time on this really ignorant blog, I am not doing the attacking,I am simply telling you how I do things. And as far as My P/L for my home and business, if you can read, I put my business totals at the bottom of all my household lists. totals for my household do not include totals for my business, I just use the bottom of the page ( for room purposes) to include a small tracking of my small business.
What the hell is wrong with that?
I am an accountant yet i get badgered and assumed to have gone to dumb colleges that dont even exist and pointing out typos that seemingly only I make has to somehow point out my inability to be who I say I am? you dont see where I am being discredited?
Anon you are a complete moron even at 10 years old.
Derek I try to promote a good discussion but when the truth is so streched on this site it is hard to actually carry a good discussion with clowns.
it's time for you to unlearn some of the stuff you learned in order to understand private franchising.
I love watching Ambots try to spout business terms for their non-franchises!!
We're about due for "business mentality
The fact that you don't, tells me that you're lazy and had the same attitude in the business "show me the money without me having to do it all, that way I know it works" before you quit.
Another wannabe who gets their panties in a bunch when asked to back up their claim. Ask your upline what thought to parrot next.
You can't run with the big dogs if you pee like a puppy!
(levi posted)Anno, speaking of paties in a bunch, what do you do? punch a time clock? is that some sort of gauratee that you wont be a failure?
Levi, you punch a time clock too, don't you? If I recall correctly, you also punched out license plates at one time as well?
Levi is slamming jobe but he would be destitute without one. He admitted his Amway business didn't net any profit.
(levi said) but just because I choose amway I get bashed by the losers who quit and are now disgruntled at the bully who got them to listen in the first place.
Thank God I'm not Levi, and I'm not imposing anything, I'm stating the obvious!
(levi stated)Hey joe are you just unable to read or are you that stupid?
you have no idea about basic business tools and that you are yet another run of the mill IBO who is losing money despite doing everythingh as your told.
And of course the words LOOK IT UP mean nothing to you...you wouldn't want to admit that you know nothing and have no idea what you are doing and actually looking information up would confirm what you already sub-consciously know
NOW EVERYONE WHO IS REALLY AHEAD IN THE INSULT GAME?
and I did not even include the latest 3rd grader rant from anon. This thread is not a debate over the topic it is a debate on who's who.
Levi, you said you spend/reinvest your Amway income to functions. That means you have no profit. It seems that you are the only one who doesn't get that.
Spare the "I'm trying to have a discussion" BS for me Levi!
Here is some great Levi-speak"
- Anon you are a complete moron even at 10 years old.
- you are the biggest Idiot to ever waste a comment space.
- you guys are so stupid
- Whats a name like rocket anyways what are you 18 did you just finish school and your teaher get your paties all in a bunch
- For the final time on this really ignorant blog
OOPS - on that last one you insulted yourself!
Why are you here? You offer NOTHING! If your business were that "amazing" you'd be out building it. When someone screams and complains and whine as much as you have - it proves you have NOTHING to offer and you hide behind diatribes.
This is at least the third time you're going to "leave" - please do!
yeah sure there anon, you privately held loser. I can comment like this to trash all day long. all you want is to sound tough and want to rant rant and rant whereas i could give two shits about you. I am blogging in my free time where I have nothing else better to do to pass my 8 hrs away then to make people like you flip out.
really look at you, how disturbed are you that you have to post anon? you couldnt figure out how to type a name? you are just a time clock puncher that wants to stay at your position whereas I punch a time clock and actually do something with my life. you are just a pathetic loser who wants to argue and criticize people. what are you looking for here. do you hope to meet up with these people and kick it or kick their ass because they have a different view? honestly could you be anymore pathetic to text over and over insulting words to attack a persons character. that is honestly just the loser in you. enjoy your pitiful blogging time.
derek you Amway reject, how many times can you state that? If I dont spend that money on the business and I go out to buy a pair of shoes with it does my net still equal 0. yeah it does what are you really going to do with a profit? hopefully eventually spend in somehow. dont be an idiot telling me that my net is 0. in that case everyone in the world in whatever they do has a net of 0. your time clock job results you in a net of 0. even if you have a savings what are you never going to spend that? cause if you do your net will be 0 then. moron.
Sorry Derek...but I am about to post three lengthy posts in response...
Part one...
"For the final time on this really ignorant blog, I am not doing the attacking,I am simply telling you how I do things. And as far as My P/L for my home and business, if you can read, I put my business totals at the bottom of all my household lists. totals for my household do not include totals for my business, I just use the bottom of the page ( for room purposes) to include a small tracking of my small business.
What the hell is wrong with that?"
Ummm....you keep changing what you are saying...you said you keep them together and you know it is wrong so now you say you just write it down on the bottom of the household expenses page? That isn't even logical...lie much?
"I am an accountant yet i get badgered and assumed to have gone to dumb colleges that dont even exist and pointing out typos that seemingly only I make has to somehow point out my inability to be who I say I am? you dont see where I am being discredited?"
LOL...YOU ARE A LIAR AND YOU HAVE PROVEN IT HERE....you have said and attacked me and others many many times for going to college and being more fortunate than you...but suddenly with your back in the corner you go from not having the money to get a fancy education to I am an accountant and have gone to college? HA HA HA HA...you have been caught. You sir, are a liar. No accountant, not even one who went to a bad online college, would A) get involved with an MLM B) tout anything as idiotic as "profit before expenses" C) not know what profit means D) wouldn't write down their business numbers at the bottom of their household expense sheet E) would never post random numbers and expect that it means you keep a P/L, F) would never question the value of a P/L or a B/S, G) would never use a made up term like "private franchising" H) would never stray, NEVER from the standard business book keeping methods, I) would never count personal use as a sale...EVER, J) would know how to calculate COGS, K) would know that there are ALWAYS expenses in any type of business and not claim that they have none L) say that there are different ways to keep a business’s financials.....I could go on...not to mention that many places, aside from punching a press, will hire an ex-felon....or do you lie about that as well? What are the letters after your name? How many are there? Tell me what are the different types of taxes any business needs to pay and how many are there? You should know these off the top of your head and not only use their abbreviations but their entire name.
Part 2...
You said this..." Gina I have posted one P/L," June 19, 2009 11:21pm...Really? Where? An accountant and a grad of small business would know what one was...here is the link so you don't think I am making it up that you said this...http://amwayscheme.blogspot.com/2009/06/amway-buy-from-yourself.html#comments
Or this one where you list some off the wall expenses for a family where both parents are making minimum wage....and accountant would not have made this statement...https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=613883171468748015&postID=405953954494266802
An accountant would understand that jobs is what keeps the economy going and wouldn't refer to people with jobs as slaves...."sure clap for the plantation. they have many positions available. slave positions, come make enough money to barely make it week to week."...https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=613883171468748015&postID=3049443665061670069
An accountant as well as someone that took even one course on small business would know that 2400-3600 net a year is not worth anyone’s time for any reason...(you said it here)http://amwayscheme.blogspot.com/2009/06/amway-are-diamonds-free-as-they-claim.html#comments
Let’s do the math...$3600 /12= 300 (that is per month) $300/4= 75 (thats weekly) now lets figure hours... many IBO's claim to only work 10 hours a week...so I will assume that is true...$75/10= $7.50 per hour. Lets up it some... $75/20= $3.75 per hour. Lets down it... $75/5= $15 per hour. Nomatter how you look at it, the results are not in your favor....an accountant would know that....but of course in being an accountant you would have already figured this and you should be able to elaborate the calculations further for us all to see.
From the same thread you said this..."Joe, Is 2400 to 3600 what I am looking for?
I dont give it back to my upline I re invest in my business by supplies, fliers and business cards. Cd's and weekend seminars are a personal enjoyment and education
(in my opinion)"... But an accountant would know that if you are using income for expenses, (and an accountant would know that those are expenses), then it is not net anything.
An accountant wouldn't ask to see someone’s personal saving balance as proof of their business profitability..."Gina, you first. post your p/L report so we can determine whether you are a fraud or not. Also show my your savings account is able to actually save a decent amount each month if you are able to at all."
That's enough for now....I may post more later. But also note that the supposed accountant and college grad seems to have a real hard time with basic grammar as well.
But hey I will give you the benefit of the doubt for a moment....Even a really really really bad accountant would understand expenses to some level and wouldn't argue about a P/L which is vital and again...even a really really really bad accountant would know that. So just how bad of an accountant are you?
Part 3
"Anon you are a complete moron even at 10 years old."
Ah yes this is more of that integrity accountants are famous for.
"Derek I try to promote a good discussion but when the truth is so streched on this site it is hard to actually carry a good discussion with clowns."
The only truth stretched is by you as was shown above.
Good luck at trying to convince people you are not the liar you clearly are....it's about to get entertaining now folks!!!!!
So all of you never said what you said?
you know fuck you kiss my ass you truely are a waste of human life and you really need this blog site cause you dont have a life you can run around a play pretend all the fuck you want to but in the fucking end I really could give two shits about any of you. you really think that just because the world treated you wrong that oh pity you all you want to blog and hate hate and hate another persons view . fuck you all kiss my ass, write all you want on this pathetic little site you really are a watse of good air. pathetic losers
bye losers
really gina you are educated to the blog world, congrats. you however prove no fact of being who you say you are. if in fact you can be on here that long to go digging up information and trying to out do a person in the hopes of makeing them seem less than who they are then hey kiss my ass you are a waste of air
once again gina at her best. you bitch are a liar. I never said I went to college. I never said I was an accountant. I said I do accounting as far as my job is concerned. get it right moron. and as far as you proving me a liar it cant be done. since I know my own truth cause i am the one right here. so I really dont care what you convince these pathetic cattle to believe but keep going. you really are a peice of work.
tsk. tsk. Levi truely bad form. A little mud in the eye and you storm off? ;)
LEVI, YOU SHOULD HONESTLY STOP ARGUIING WITH THESE PEOPLE! THEY JUST D.O.N.T G.E.T I.T! THEY ARE BOTH I.N.C.U.R.A.B.L.E & U.N.T.R.E.A.T.A.B.L.E! YOU ARE WASTING YOUR TIME WITH THEM! THEY WILL NEVER GET IT! THEY WILL KEEP THEIR VIEWS AS THEY ARE TODAY UNTIL THE DAY THEY DIE!
Wow Levi, you are a man of great integrity. Not!
Wow...the big bully has a meltdown and runs away when stood up to....go run to your Diamond for some "counseling"!
Enjoyed the profanity-laced tirades, though!
It seems Levi was caught in a web of inconsistent statements he made and he got taken to school.
I don't understand why people get so angry over minor criticism of Amway?
“I never said I went to college. I never said I was an accountant. I said I do accounting as far as my job is concerned. get it right moron. and as far as you proving me a liar it cant be done."
Really? Are you sure? Because this is what you had to say on July 6th 2009 at 9:36pm on Joecool’s blog…
“ I have degree's in accounting and bookkeeping.” Here is the link… (I wouldn’t want anyone to think that I am lying) http://amwayscheme.blogspot.com/2009/06/amway-whats-wrong-with-job.html#comments
So how exactly did you mean “I have degree’s”???
On July 13th 2009 at 9:34 pm on this very blog in this very thread you did in fact say…
”I am an accountant yet i get badgered and assumed to have gone to dumb colleges that dont even exist and pointing out typos that seemingly only I make has to somehow point out my inability to be who I say I am? you dont see where I am being discredited?"
But yet you just said as kiss my ass… “I never said I was an accountant. I said I do accounting as far as my job is concerned. get it right moron.”
Hmmmm….so who exactly is the moron here? Take note that you also say…
”I never said I went to college. “ on this very blog in this thread but yet from the same post quoted above you say…”i get badgered and assumed to have gone to dumb colleges that dont even exist” ...
Seems to me you were clearly criticizing others for making statements regarding your lack of a college degree while strongly inferring that they are wrong and that you do in fact hold a degree…and to go on ,as I pointed out above, you do say in another blog that you have not one degree but multiple degrees.
I don’t need to convince anyone of anything…you have done it all on your own, be angry with yourself.
I do believe sir, that you have been just proven to be a liar...you were wrong yet again.
You are the liar….bitch.
well here is the scoop but it really wont matter since notihng i say gets through to you.
yes I never went to college, I recieved my completeion of the accounting course and bookeeping courese through prison. It was not college but It was a legitimate course. are you satisfied or still want to confuse the readers here. oh and derek I was not caught in a web of lies, nice try moron. you people make me sick you do nothing all day but blah blah blah on these blogs when you in reality are not even doing what you say you are. you comment just because it gives you meaning in life not becuse you can legitimately debate. screw all of you. hard.
and wow the perfect edicate that you have gina, trying to woo the readers into believing your story. you all are liars. but hey this all aint for real anyways its just a game . after all who wins here anyways. you just talk talk and talk. pointless.
hmm. Levi, much better form. But I would say there is just too many of them. argh, we cannot make it captin.
But then again you all are just fake, anyone ever played M.U.D. ? It is an online RPG where you create characters and Profiles for those characters. You play an elaborate game where your character seems real in the imagination of a text only enviorment. Looks freakishly familiar. anyone want to go on a quest? he he
I believe Gina over the ex-con.
Gina can spell. And runs a real business.
Back to the construction site with you Levi.
"well here is the scoop but it really wont matter since notihng i say gets through to you."
Why are you under the impression that you need to get through to anyone?
"yes I never went to college, I recieved my completeion of the accounting course and bookeeping courese through prison. It was not college but It was a legitimate course."
Honesty...you should try it more often. You never presented any of your educational background as a correspondence course....and you did so ,on purpose and were caught. There is a large difference between "degree", the word you clearly used on multiple occasions and correspondence course, the word you just used after being caught neck deep in lies.
" are you satisfied or still want to confuse the readers here."
The only one trying to confuse the readers is you, and the fact that you would after being caught lying, try to make it seem as if I am the one causing confusion regarding your background shows that you have zero problems being a liar and distorting the truth. And issue many have with IBO's and you clearly justify those views.
" oh and derek I was not caught in a web of lies, nice try moron."
No??? What do you call it?? Just a bunch of lies? One large lie? Which is it cause no matter how you slice it you were caught lying...moron
" you people make me sick you do nothing all day but blah blah blah on these blogs when you in reality are not even doing what you say you are."
Says the pot calling the kettle black.
" you comment just because it gives you meaning in life not because you can legitimately debate."
You wouldn't know legitimate if it bit you in the eye.
"screw all of you. hard."
More of that IBO integrity at work.
"and wow the perfect edicate that you have gina, trying to woo the readers into believing your story."
This is what you seem to have a problem with...there is no wooing anyone into believing a story especially when it is a truthful story. Truth...something you know nothing about.
" you all are liars."
Point out one, any one lie. Provide links, as I have to prove your dishonesty as is standard practice. No need to woo anyone when you have links and facts that are posted to support your conclusion...simple really.
" but hey this all aint for real anyways its just a game ."
Interesting....so you have nothing of substance and are clearly incapable of an honest, and mature discussion so you attempt to take the focus away from your inadequacies by trying to imply that we are all fake persona's. Childish really.
" after all who wins here anyways."
Wasn't aware it was a contest.
" you just talk talk and talk. pointless."
No...I have a point and am able to support and prove those points...
You have lost any credibility you may have had….you are clearly a liar, just like the majority of the other IBO’s in the world….you people know nothing but how to lie. Top notch, I say!!!!
Gina, truely I belive all of you Anti-Amway fanatics are either Team Destiny or cults similar to it I have been reading for a year now and I think it is quite obvious that you all use multiple names and often times may be usine anony's. This all is not new to me and quite frankly you all gang up on this one person "levi" trying to dismember his validility when he is constantly pointing out truthful things that he really does not have to share. why he shared that he was in prison I dont know but I think that is where it went downhill, I think this entire blogging community is suspect especially when Ip addresses can be caught and tracked this could all turn ugly. people really need to be aware that this is not a game, this reason is the primary reason I have been skeptical of even posting here. Gina I for one cannot take any statement here at full value, in fact there could be a possiblility you and Levi are the same person just making media attention. or maybe you two are sitting in a room laughing about this, maybe this Levi character is your husband and you two get off on role playing.
"Back to the construction site with you Levi."
Hmmm...Rocket you have just pointed out yet another one of Levi's lies. He said here that he works as an accountant in a hotel, but has said on JC's blog that he works as a carpenter.
Seems if anyone is a fake persona here it is Levi...he can't even keep his occupations straight.
This has been the most humorous post I have followed. You all are here trying to pick apart this IBO when none of you even raise the valadility of eachother as if you already know eachother either by being the same person or being in the same room or community of friends. This whole thing is suspect.
A lot of us know each other from years of blogging together on Quixtar Blog Forum and other Amwat related websites. If you ask a moderator there, they will confirm that we are all different people from very different places.
Silence is akward...?
