  thursday while i was at work, a new elder stopped by the house (almost 3 years after fading) to encourage us to go back to meetings.

  said everyone misses us.

  if you did, why not stop by and say hi every now and then?

  a lot of my ex fellow servants must be now in their seventies, what can you do?.

  no children no money no home.

  it is so sad.. so many decided not to have children as the end was right around the corner and that was decades ago.

  That is the situation in many European countries. For example in the Netherlands, the only requirement to receive a state pension at 66 or 67 is you lived in the country all the years. It doesn’t matter if you worked or not.

  For example I have a friend, some years older than me, who never worked since 1985 untill now. He was 65 and received his full state pension, some € 1200,00 and the state pays almost all his rent. He is witness of course and always did some jobs on the side, cash.

  I have been working since I was 18, even did some work while being a special pioneer. I left the country in 1991 for missionary assignments untill 2000. Guess? When I will be 66, I will receive at least 18% less state pension that he receives, because I lived outside the country.

  Lee, you must know this plane was owned by a retired brother, I know who he is, hé even stayed at our missionary-home, to pick up the branch coördinator to go on an Alaskan fishing trip.

  I cant blame them they went with him for Free, I would have done the same but those kind of brothers had no eye for us… yes, to stay for free at the missionary-home and use us as a cook.

  Lee Marsh.

  GB members, believe it or not, did (do I don’t know) live in rooms. We had John Barr’s kindly offered room in Patterson for two weeks, just because we were missionaries and were temporally in his Brooklyn Heights congregation and had to live in their room untill another (smaller yes) was available.

  Please stop exaggerating about private planes, expensive suits, expensive cars and Rolexes. Even if the have expensive items, they are gifts or saved for,

  You make yourself ridiculous speaking without knowing them and having dealt with them. But yes, we left in 2000 so it might have been changed.

  Lee, the topic was about the writers. The GB does hardly if not at all any writing. I was in a congregation with a Watchtower writer, British, at Brooklyn Heights. No way this brother was living in another world. He knew exactly what was going on in the world and among the youth in this huge (300+ publishers) congregation.

  About leaving, the last part of your comments. It is doable, I left missionary-service at 40. Now I would say I was just a kid. But at the moment you decide to leave you feel trapped. Far away from your home country, your family, and the only thing the society does is paying you a one way ticket home (because we did 9 or 10 years). But we did it, it is possible. Especially if you work in the USA in your own country. But you need balls.

  Well Mum. I guess there are few billionaires who get up at 06:00-06:15 everyday and have their meal in 20 minutes. So don’t make it bigger than it is. By the way, don’t you think you would get fed up travelling by air every month. Well I have done so (not while in ft service of course) and I hated it,

  Homeopathy and Jehovah's Witnesses.

  years ago, the jws did not like modern medicine.

  vaccines and other things were all deemed bad.

  this gave rise to a lot of jws getting into alternative medicines.

  Vogel was very populair among the dutch JW. In fact all of my family had “De kleine dokter” written by A.Vogel in their theocratic library.

  The only books they ever had, the Watchtower shit and Vogel, the lunatics.
