I found the above link to a page of statistics where the poster converts the raw percentages and turns it into a real, hard number. I have looked through the page’s contents and they seem to be based on real calculations. I like that, another numbers guy.

He’s not one of the market technicians that are better known to me, but I like his style and he is rather clear–i like people who tend to use plain English.

I originally posted this as a reply-comment on Nov12/08. As below:
Let’s try not to lose sight of the big-picture bottom-line.
I have repeatedly stated that Amway has placed themselves into the retail space, and are selling a retail product line. No one has to twist my arm when I want to go buy a foot-long sub, […]

One fellow blogger thought of it just a week ago:

This is a response to IBOFB’s latest comment in which he states all the good things that Amway has done these past **two** years to help grow the business. Or is that, to try to stop the blood from flowing?
