My uber elder cousin and his wife got the "privilege" of having one last "toast" of wine at the rooftop garden at the Towers in NYC since the JW's are vacating to Warwick. His oldest daughter and son in law are quite high up in the inner circle so they get invited to all the "inner circle" activities. Even though they aren't supposed to toast to anything it was pretty darn close. Saw it on Instagram!

And some people who are "witness royalty" like my cousin will be traveling to Warwick to attend. His oldest daughter and son in law have been there for 7 years and are quite high up in the org. I'm sure there will be pictures of them with the GB and they will probably even get to stay in the compound. As usual it depends on who you are in JW land.

So I saw on Instagram from one of the major Uber elders from Everett WA posted a picture of where he was staying for the week long safety training the LDC was putting on. Well this "suite" had a full bar for one thing and everything else was quite fancy! He was complaining about losing $$ for a week since he had to go to this training but the accommodations were wonderful. So how does that work? Does the LDC pay for the accommodations if you get there under your own power?
Well at least someone is enjoying themselves.......

Last nights CLAM meeting
by dbq407 inso hadn't been to a clam meeting in quite a few months, but went last night.
so we learned that gog of magog is not satan as previously believed.
they used a few scriptures that made it clear that it couldn't be satan and that it would be a coalition of nations.

And what about the old story line that Jehovah would read people's hearts so you didn't necessarily have to be baptized to make it through Armaggedon? I guess that is old light as well.

Is the End right around the corner or what???
by Lynnie ininteresting observations i've noticed when visiting my uber elder cousin and his wife.
he just inherited a lovely home on the water on puget sound from his non jw dad who passed away earlier this year.
so they have spent many $$$ and months remodeling this house to their standards which are quite expensive tastes.

yes there are quite a few rich JW's here in Seattle, they are always traveling and doing fun stuff, Oh and they stop in at a branch headquarters when they are traveling so I'm sure they can legitimize the travel. No one seems too concerned around here. Of course if you are a rich JW it's much easier anyway.
funny my cousin was talking about long term health care insurance since they are about 66 or so and are apparently not counting on Armaggedon any time soon either. How do these people live with themselves? It's so hypocritical but of course they can't see it at all.

Interesting observations I've noticed when visiting my Uber Elder cousin and his wife. He just inherited a lovely home on the water on Puget Sound from his non JW dad who passed away earlier this year. So they have spent many $$$ and months remodeling this house to their standards which are quite expensive tastes. IIt really didn't need all the upgrades that they have done. And they have just gotten a new car as well, his wife said to me "Oh this will be our "death car" or the last car we own before we die." Hmmmm? Oh and his youngest daughter and husband that lives in this inherited house are going to live there for another year and then they will build their own house on some property 30 miles north of this house. So I guess the plans continue even though the ORG is telling everyone to simplify etc. or go where the great are needed (or where the need is great!) I guess that doesn't apply to JW royality.
So I don't even think they realize what they are saying when they say this stuff to me and it's very amusing! Of course I didn't say anything like "what about Armaggedon coming next week" just more fun to listen to what this idiots are saying.

Tacoma Dome Conventions
by Lynnie inso i went to visit my jw aging mother this week (i've been df'd for 40 years) and she told me she needs to give the people who are taking her to the convention $10 each day of the convention to cover gas?
my uber elder cousin told her she needs to do this!!!
wtf?

Lynnie
No Pete she still has the reverse mortgage and is on a very fixed income. What a bunch of crap!
It just kills me that my cousin who is now very rich couldn't see his way clear to just give up the $30. What a creep!

And why does she need to pay anything when presumably the people were going anyway? NO CHARITY HERE!!!!

Who is benefiting from Watchtower Corporation financially
by John Davis inwho do you believe is financially benefiting from watchtower business dealings.
i know about the gold apple watch, but that is only a small percentage of the billions that they have.
so who do you think is keeping all of this money.

Well I can tell you that my cousins who are in the higher ups in Bethel are benefiting from the "world wide work" big time. They fly first class all over the world to different branches and then tell the branches how to do the RBC and purchasing stuff. He works in Purchasing and has worked his way up in the last 8 years since they've been there. She works in the laundry, a perfect place for a good witness wife and bethelite.
