I bought property, not that far from Watchtower land in Warrwick NY.

    I wound up buying 26 acres of land in upstate NY, a few years ago. I bought it strictly as an investment, due to rumors of there going to be huge development of the area. It seems like casinos, Walmart, and tons of building have started in the area, or are now breaking ground, since i purchased it. I never planned on living there myself, as i live closer towards NYC, but i always liked the idea of knowing i owned a lot of land, that i could eventually do whatever i wanted on, and would increase in value as an investment.

    Crazy thing is, i had never realised, until only recently, that my property upstate is not that far from the new WTS headquarters, in Warrwick. Who knows, maybe all the "building" the WTS is doing up there, will wind up putting money in MY pocket, as it helps increase my property value, lol. That certainly could be one good thing, for me to be "happy" about the WTS, but who knows, lol.

    Also, maybe when i go up and use my property, which i only do occasionally as a "getaway" to camp and fish, and be out of the city and in "nature", i could use my property as a "base" to "spy" on the BORG, lol. I can do whatever i wish up there. Its very rural, quiet, hidden, and secluded, and borders on 7000 acres, owned by the state, that can NEVER be developed. However, i can develop, and build, pretty much whatever i wish on my 26 acres.

    Imagine, if i invited all of us "apostates" here in this community, and we built an "anti-warrwick" headquarters, up on the property. We can make it OUR headquarters, and use it as a centralized place to "print" apostate literature, associate with each other, create a library of teachings that expose the WTS, film videos there for youtube, and even make our own website, like an anti-jw.org. We can have apartments up there for visiting apostate brothers, discuss faith, and fellowship, NO shunning, and all are welcome.

    It could be the anti-warrwick, and it would be just like a half hour away from the actual WTS headquarters, lol. How funny would that be? Just wanted to share with you all my "happy" Saturday "dream", i know it could probably never happen, but it is fun to think about, and i DO own the property, so ya never know, lol.

    @ - Village Idiot - It cost me $96,000, for all 26 acres WITH electric on the property, and a small hunters cabin/quarters. It was an "inside" deal, done privatelly, so it wasnt "listed". Thats why, i beleive i got such a sweet deal, also, this was quite a few years ago, like 5 or 6, maybe even ayear or 2 more.

    If I owned any property close to a "Bethel" facility I would build 3 things.

    • A Beer/ Liquor Store (Fully Stocked & Staffed on Bethel Payday)
    • A Pizza place (Fully Stocked & Staffed on Liver and Onions day)
    • An internet cafe (No Bethel Spying on your browsing)


    You could make bank on the Beer sales alone!

    Liver & Onions day is the day that Bethel serves that for lunch. It is the most hated meal at the US Branch. Usually only 1/4 show up for that lunch, most only eat the sides. Even the Cooks will order pizza from off site!

    @Village Idiot

    Rutherford's Liquor
    Pyramid Pizza

    587 Cafe? Cutbacks Cafe? Ray's Coffee? New-Light Coffee!
