There are already plenty of examples in JW history to show that this change, when it does come, will affect a small amount of publishers, but, overall successful to maintaining the multi-billion dollar corporation.

Taking from the follow passages: Matt 25:14-30;
As we have been shown, from our soon to be departed brothers, there were three classes of slave. One class who reaps the greatest glory of his master. Clearly we can see this as our anointed brothers. These brothers not only get the greatest glory, but also, take any glory giving to the wicked slave. That slave being Christendom,(the b?stards). However, there is a third slave who doesn?t receive as great as glory as the first slave. The first slave has the greatest glory, by an invisible ruling from heaven. So, the remaining slave that is still in his master?s favor can only be the new governing body of experienced elders, taking on the glorious work of ?delivering food at the proper time? from the first slave.

Glorious announcement for the upcoming Newer World Translation of the Holy Scriptures
The rest will be history, someday?.
Matt
25:14-30
14
?For it is just as when a man, about to travel abroad, summoned slaves of his and committed to them his belongings.
15
And to one he gave five talents, to another two, to still another one, to each one according to his own ability, and he went abroad.
16
Immediately the one that received the five talents went his way and did business with them and gained five more.
17
In the same way the one that received the two gained two more.
18
But the one that received just one went off, and dug in the ground and hid the silver money of his master.
19
?After a long time the master of those slaves came and settled accounts with them.
20
So the one that had received five talents came forward and brought five additional talents, saying, ?Master, you committed five talents to me; see, I gained five talents more.?
21
His master said to him, ?Well done, good and faithful slave! You were faithful over a few things. I will appoint you over many things. Enter into the joy of your master.?
22
Next the one that had received the two talents came forward and said, ?Master, you committed to me two talents; see, I gained two talents more.?
23
His master said to him, ?Well done, good and faithful slave! You were faithful over a few things. I will appoint you over many things. Enter into the joy of your master.?
24
?Finally the one that had received the one talent came forward and said, ?Master, I knew you to be an exacting man, reaping where you did not sow and gathering where you did not winnow.
25
So I grew afraid and went off and hid your talent in the ground. Here you have what is yours.?
26
In reply his master said to him, ?Wicked and sluggish slave, you knew, did you, that I reaped where I did not sow and gathered where I did not winnow?
27
Well, then, you ought to have deposited my silver monies with the bankers, and on my arrival I would be receiving what is mine with interest.
28
??Therefore
TAKE
away the talent from him and give it to him that has the ten talents.
29
For to everyone that has, more will be given and he will have abundance; but as for him that does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.
30
And throw the good-for-nothing slave out into the darkness outside. There is where [his] weeping and the gnashing of [his] teeth will be.?
