Thanks all!!!!
My current phase of the "Team" encounter is the experience of:
- anything I say that is not Pro-Team is considered negative.
So others have faced what appears to be common response of:
"You're being negative; don't you want me to succeed? Don't
you want me to fulfill my dreams which will make YOU happier?"
lol [:D]
Looking at the upside – I do enjoy reading many of the business
books "Team" recommends. Watching the DVD's or listening to the
CD's…. that's a different story. lol
When talking about the "Team" I choose my words carefully. I
asked my wife:
"Since the Amway / Team breakup it has come out that one does not
make much "if any" money off the products; so how DOES one make
money?"
Her explanation was anything but.... financially sound. The more
questions I asked the more irritated she became. She said she would
give me a compensation outline.
Allow me to share one antidote.
Wife: "One gets a number of different bonuses based on how much you
buy; - and how many people you have under you; - and how much they
buy"
Me: "I don't understand? The purposes of a business is to make
a profit. One must have more revenue coming in that going out. In that
set up one will ALWAYS be buying more than revenue come in. How do you
make a profit?
Wife: "the items I buy I must buy anyways so I'm not loosing
money"
Me: "but you're not making a profit"
Wife: "you just don't understand. When I get enough people
under me buying the bonus can get to $1,000 a month an much, much
more……
Me: "how many people and how much do they need to buy to receive
$1,000 bonus a month?"
Wife: "I'll get the paper that outlines bonuses"
I still haven't seen this 'how to make money' paper. lol
I didn't say this but I felt like saying:
Instead of buying over priced products –
1)Why doesn't everyone just shop at there local store purchasing
their products at a cheaper price.
2) and every month everyone send $100 bucks to their upline and be done
with it.
It accomplishes the same thing.

off, but if you use questions to get her to think it over, she might
realize, on her own, what is happening."
"…. handle it carefully. If you take this away from her, you're
not taking away a scam. From her point of view, you're stealing her
dreams and chance to succeed. That's why it is important to use
questions that make her think."

"They will tell her that you are jealous or afraid that she might
become more successful than you and that you will do everything you can
to sabotage her success. They will advise her to do things such as buy
tools in quantity or many more tickets to functions than she will be
able to sell. They will advise her to hide these things from you. They
will try to convince her that she should do these things because she
loves you and is going to make a very large residual income so that you
will not have to work again and in the end you will see the error of
your ways and be ever so grateful."
