The Amway distributors I have met have been good, upstanding people. The Amway cleaning products I have tried have been outstanding. (I am not an Amway distributor.)

I have personally met the DeVos family and they are awesome people. They think like us here on FR (wink), believe me.

My Aunt used to work do that Amway stuff, and the rest of us thought it was some Ponzi scheme, but she did make money. I guess, it all depends on the person if you believe in the company you work for.

Plus, we did meet the DeVos family and they are like “us”, believe me.

The DeVos family does a lot of good things. I think Grand Rapids would die without them. They were the primary funding source of the world record Grand Rapids lip sync project a few years ago. I believe Dick DeVos appears at 4 minutes.

Okay, and?

Let's say that a 100 or more season ticket holders return their season tickets. How long do you think it will take the Magic to resell them?

And what will be to the Amway Corp? A grain of sand in the desert comes to mind.

But boy, it does make nice headlines and probably increases some ad revenues.

Dick DeVos is one of the nicest guys I’ve ever met in politics. During his gubernatorial run, I started out as someone voting for DeVos because he wasn’t Granholm. By the time I voted, I was voting for DeVos because he’s a good man who would have been a real good governor.
