Very sorry to hear about your sister.
Have you asked her how much money her upline make from tools - meetings, CDs/tapes, books etc.? Ask how many people were at the last big meeting, how much the tickets cost, how much she thinks the venue cost to hire - how much money was left over for the organisers?
Ask her if she's ever googled Amway+news - it may well throw up the story about how Amway organisations have been shut down in the UK.
Ask her how she knows that her upline are making money? Has she seen their tax forms declaring income?
There is a lot of information on Amway/Quixtar at www.amquix/info but it is best if your sister finds this out for herself. Don't give her the website, she's been brainwashed into ignoring negative information.
Does she have any downline? Have you asked her if they are making any money? Are they losing money? How does she feel about this?
If most of her social circle consists of Amway people (likely as she's probably driven friends and family away over the years) it will be hard for her to walk away as she'll feel very isolated. They've also told her that only losers quit and no one wants to be thought of as a loser.
What did she like to do before she joined Amway? Try asking her what she might have been doing now if she'd never come across the business. Ask her to look at how much she's "invested" in her business over 14 years - could she have spent in a more worthwhile way?
Your sister has a dream which she thinks can be achieved by being successful in the business - do you know what she wants from it? No one wants to be an Amway distributor, they want either freedom from a disliked job, a lot of money to buy a big house, flash car, travel, or an income to be able to stay at home with the family. There may be other ways your sister can achieve her dream. It isn't going to be Amway.
I'm sure other people will have suggestions - try looking through past posts.

My name is Kindeng. I am a new member. My sister is involved in Amway sinds more than 14 years ago. I don't know how Amway can give her a brainwash so that she's still thinks that Amway is the right thing in her life. She doesn't get any support from her family and like most Amway members, doesn't have a lot friends. She just puts a big distance between her and our family. My two other sisters had a big fight with her about Amway. That's why we avoid to say that name everytime we talk to her. Our relationship with her is not the same anymore.
She spent a lot of money for that bussines and get big zero back. But she doesn't realize that as a loss. Even she doesn't have enough time for her husband and their only 2 years old child. It takes years and now the bomb starts to explode. They will get divorced.
Beside Amway I admit there are other problems in their marriage but I am sure Amway's influence to her is the result of all these problems.
Can you please tell me what I need to do to wake her up from her Amway never come true dreams? To open her eyes that there are more important and nice things than Amway? Maybe you have an experience like this. Please share it to me. I don't want to see my sister as a Amway's victim forever. Or if this topic has been discussed, can you refer me to that information as I am a new member here?
Cheers,
Kindeng
