TopFrom my understanding Amway is an all cash company too. I don’t sell Amway but I have bought some of their products and they work very well. If you want to be a great company provide great products.

TopI had NO idea that they were that large! I also did not know that Menards, where I shop once in a while and only heard of within the past year, was that large. Very interesting! Thanks!

TopHoly cow! Menards is huge!
How can a company that is intuitively associated with “scam” be so large – must be doing something right!

TopResponse to zkart: The only REAL pyramids are jobs. I can, and do, make more money in Amway than the person who sponsored me. Yes, depending on your definition, it’s still MLM, but pyramid suggests you can’t get higher in the company than your leaders. There are MANY, MANY distributors that make more than their leaders.

TopIn response to zkart, Amway is not a pyramid scam. In a pyramid setup, you cannot make more money than the people above you. That is not true when you are an Independent Business Owner (IBO) through Amway. You don’t make money just by signing people up. If the individuals you sponsor don’t do any work, you don’t profit in anyway from them. You can surpass your “up-line” in profit quite easily if you are willing to do the work. It is all based on free enterprise. It is a fabulous system and you should really look into the company. If you buy products, you have 180 days to return them for any reason. Amway has gotten a bad reputation from people that have chosen not to do the work. It isn’t magic money, and it is no where close to a scam. They have several partner stores such as Best Buy, PETCO, Office Depot, Dick’s Sporting Goods and Bass Pro Shop, just to name a few. If you think that their lawyers haven’t turned everything inside out before deciding to partner with Amway, than you have got to be crazy. I hope this changes your opinion a bit!
