Why does the Org want you to donate your home to them? Your property? All about money and leaving you broke and dependant on the Org and their sorry azz "help". I cut out the middle man the org and started helping myself. Life is better, way better. Thinking about it lurkers.

"Why would anyone build a house in this system of things?"
by Queequeg inrecent posts about elders telling people to quit their jobs etc.
reminded me of this.. when i was in my early twenties i decided that i really wanted to build a house (id always wanted to, even as a kid).
i justified my "selfish" desire in my own mind by thinking that once we were living in it we'd have more freedom and skills to volunteer to do things like quickbuilds and international construction (actually, it really did work out that way).

When I did field circus I had one partner I worked with all the time and only with. And yes, I made the mistake of having others ride in my car. Either I was going to fast, toke the corner to fast, broke to hard, always something. Even had someone ride them to do they errands. Don't give me a cent for gas. Cheapskate!

Speaking of trucks- we have a small trucking business. You would be surprised on how many requests for free moves we get from JW'S. They walk away disappointed. We are not a charity.

When I was in the "truth" there was so much competition. Now that I'm out there is no competition. Crazy thing it is!

I bought a pre-owned Mercedes M Class . My second car. And the day I drove it to the Hall I was told by an elderrette that is a showy display and too much car. It was not even new. The elder of the wife who busted my chops made more comments in a local needs talk. He has alot of nerve with that new Ranger Rover he owns. Then a week later look who pulls in the KH parking lot with a new Mercedes. The elderrette.

This is how desperate they are
by Anony Mous inso, back in the day, when you had an 'unruly child' and/or family members, your privileges were removed pretty much instantly right?
my entire childhood i had to hear about how me being bad in the hall or someone telling the elders about what's happening at our home, that's making it so my stepfather never gets or keeps appointments.
so always be good, don't tell anyone anything, so the men can become servants and elders and the women pioneers.. so i hear this about an elder family that pretty much broke apart.

This happened to me in I was in. I was working on my Master's and because of it my father and I where both removed to serve in the Kingdumb Hall. Just a few years before my father passed away and no one was reaching out for " privilege " in the hall now they wanted both my father and I to serve after years of being removed. My father and I did not do or except any privileges. As far we where concern let them figure it out.

Longhairgal- you'll love this one! My father built machines for overseas oil production. It was his own company. The elders didn't like it and told him to sale the company and work a janitor job. My father laughed in their face. But when they need funds for projects or when the circuit overseer would be in town guess who would be at our villa with their hands out for money.

I did fade, in fact my whole family are inactive and disassociated. It was hard at first because the elders would come into our bakery and other businesses we own but the harassment has stopped. Ever once in an while someone brings up JW stuff. But we excuse ourselves and walk away.

I was in my early 20's and started a business and at the same time going to school. The elder idiots did not like that and put all kinds of pressure on my parents and me to quit and just work some labor job. It's funny when they cry for college educated personnel to help them but a different matter when you are trying to make a living and they (Watchtower) keeps asking for money. But don't improve yourself. They can go piss off.
