Not bad, as long as you want to harrass your friends to buy 20$ dishwashing liquid.
There's thousands of other work from home opportunities.
Good luck !

Amway was a scam and they no longer exist (I know they got shut down by the government...I think for tax reasons). The people who formed Amway have reformed under another company (wish I could remember the name to warm you about it, but I can't)....Here is where the scam comes in...they pump you up with ideas of making big money buying into their product and signing up other people under you to do the same (multi-level marketing). They show you videos and pictures of people who are now millionaires. They push you to go to motivational conferences where you listen to these millionaires talk about how a little hard work got them their dreams. They will also push you to buy motivational books, tapes and CDs....what they don't tell you is that the rich folks at the top own the company that you are purchasing all these tapes, cds and books from and that is where they are making their money...NOT form selling the product and signing people up like they are pushing you to do! You have no access to this aspect of the business, as it is soley owned by the upper crust and is not part of any profit sharing plan.
They tell you about all the riches you'll make, the dreams you will achieve and get you so pumped up that yo will spend your money and sign up...most people don't read the really fine print that states the average person makes only aout $1,200 annually selling the product...you'll spend way more on the books, tapes and products yourself alone!
If someone is pushing you to become part of the program RUN! Run as fast as you can!! They are pushy and will try and convince you that what I've said is not true...that's part of the "scripts" they are given to convince people to join. Look it up on the internet and you will see that many, many lives have been ruined as a result of joining up with this company.
