Oh yea... I used to be an Amway drone. 
The products are awesome but the process and the pushy sales crap gets old after a while.

Well Tom has been contacting my roommate about joining. And he is very relentless about it.
However I know people can be very successful selling Amway.

This proves they're a cult, they deny it on their website.
[QUOTE]I've heard rumors that Amway is a cult. Is this true?
No, Amway Corporation is a business and, similar to other large and established companies, has a distinct environment defined by shared business goals. Shared business philosophies, encouragement, support, and a common vision should not be misinterpreted as a cult.
Amway is part of a group of companies that manufacture and distribute quality products and services and in its most recent fiscal year (2005) generated global retail sales of $6.4 billion. Amway offers a business opportunity that is open to all, regardless of religious beliefs, race or gender. Amway really is a microcosm of the world, with more than 3 million business owners worldwide representing nearly every culture, ethnic background, and political and religious belief finding in the Amway business a way to meet their goals.
While unique as individuals, Amway Business Owners share a desire to succeed in a business of their own and recognize Amway as an excellent opportunity to achieve their goals. New Business Owners receive training, motivation and support in building independent businesses, and are rewarded for their achievements.

Why do Amway meetings appear to some people like a cult?
Amway meetings are full of shared energy, enthusiasm, and excitement - just like most sales motivation meetings
