WT is a money making Organization. A small example of how they are making money from nothing, it is my personal experience with a KH, that was build upon a land that was donated to the Society by a JW:
1. I know that K.Halls, usually most of them are build upon a land that was donated to the Society by a JW.
2. The building of a KH, materials ( usually are donated, by JW's who are in the building trade) or bought by contributions by the local JW's.
3. Labor is FREE (JW's do the building for the KH), and since I'm in the Building Industry, Labor is the MOST COSTLY from all above.
The result is the following: We have a KH that was build on a land that was a donation to the WT, (hence WT didn't pay anything for it, or even if they did, again the money came out from the wallets of the local JW's). The material and labor work are contributed FREE to the WT. So here is the juicy part: After the KH is finished, the WT comes and DEMANDS RENT FROM THE LOCAL CONGREGATION or CONGREGATIONS in case 2 or more are using the KH...So why pay rent to the WT, since all the local JW's, bought the land, contribute for the materials and building of the new KH? That was something I couldn't understand (at that time)
I recall that the KH of my territory had the scenario above. The land was a gift to the WT by an elderly JW, (this land only it worth millions now!!!) So we build our KH and at the end of the day we pay for a life time rent to the WT Society. Now that KH there are 4 congregations using it. So the WT gets rent from all of them!!! Now supposed the WT decides to sell the KH for sure the money will go to the WT's cashier box, and not to the local congregations. And if the WT find a cheaper place to build the new KH, for sure the local JW's will pay again for buying the land and build their KH...
