  WT Society SEC Records : Hedge Funds, Cayman Islands, Financial Losses - Links

  by flipper in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  so my wife and i were curious so i researched some financial links and found records indicating that the wt society has been operating at a loss since the year 2012. as you read the links it shows a loss of 10 million $$$ in 2012, about 16 million $$$ in 2013, and a whopping loss of 56 million $$$ in 2014 - where the expenditures exceeded the revenues for each of those years in the amount i've mentioned.

  also there is a link on this same website with the sec records indicating that the wt society and it's representatives funneled 40 million $$$$ into hedge funds in the cayman islands as early as 2007. if you look online on other sites you can see evidence that indicates the wt society attended hedge fund conferences to look into more shadiness in 2011 and isn't it curious that by 2012 the wt society started showing losses.

  anyway here is the link : https://www.watchtowerlies.com/the_watchtower_revenue.html .. feel free to check this link out and other links on that link indicating the cayman island connection.

  Bafh - If you've noticed all their cutbacks, just from that alone you can tell they are having problems.

  Bafh - you are correct.

  Also, specific numbers from their other entities, for the most part at least, can't be legally posted online.

  Flipper- welcome back!!!

  FYI - They might be saving about 25mil per year for the 1600 Special Pioneers they are demoting. I wanted to give you that update.

  1600 (Special Pioneers) x $1300 (per month) x 12 (months) = 24,960,000.

  This is just a guesstimate based on feedback on here.

  However; please keep in mind. They are laying off about 25% of SP's. If the numbers are correct, that would mean the expenditure is still about 75mil for SP's.

  Young JW's with crazy abusive parents: You are not alone. Here's a crazy story from my past.

  by cappytan in

  2. experiences

  first off, if you are in an abusive household and don't have the means to leave, you need to get help immediately.

  contact the police.

  they have resources to help you, especially if you have proof.

  Not that easy... If they are underage, the first the DCF wants to do is remedy the situation unless there is strong proof that abuse is taking place.

  Meanwhile, DCF comes to your home, the parents put on this great act, and is there when the kids are spoken to by the DCF people.

  If kids take the initiative, there could be serious consequences by the parents after DCF comes out and they put on their dog and pony show...

  In my opinion, there's a big difference if you are over the age of 18. Kids younger, unfortunately, don't have the same rights... :(

  God, I hope I'm wrong. I wish for anything that I'm wrong. Please correct me if I am, so these kids can more easily speak out without severe consequences...

  Mobile Hotspot - JWFACTS.COM - Assembly & Conventions

  here is an idea i tested.

  works at both assemblies and conventions.

  i have noticed at the last convention and at my last assembly that when i opened up my wifi setting, tons of hotspots came up for people tethering their tablets to their smart phones.

  Doubting - I'm not sure. Don't they pay for Health Insurance? I would think that would at least double the cost for them.

  After doing the math, Calebs might be right. If they spend a total of $1300 on average each month for each special pioneer, then:

  $1300 x 12 (months) x 1600 (SP's) = 24,960,000 per year
