And there goes another wasted life.. To the op: you'll need every last part of your critical thinking skill. Don't rush anything, just ask and question everything jws tell you. They forced me not to talk to my mother for 3 years when I was still a kid. Because that's their policy. QUESTION EVERYTHING THEY SAY!

Same thing here. Judged for attending college, judged for talking to my df-ed mother, judged for having a unique hairstyle (lol, yes). After a while you get fed up and ignore them totally.

What does money represent to YOU ?
by new hope and happiness infor example does money represent to you power, love, joy and much more or does money represent to you feelings of worry, guilt, anger, sadness.. for myself i have always enjoyed living largely on little, and i can appreciate that the best things in life are free.
having said that i am glad i have been fortunate and sensible enough with money to never have exsperienced the anxiety of debt.
and it may sound silly but i dont think winning it big on the lottery would improve the quality of my life nor my family.

Like right now money for me means that I can pay accomodation bills at the university and having some food in the fridge. Survival, i guess.. But it's also fun, being able to be independent it's like a real life video game

Oh come on Found Sheep, that was just unfair. Who wouldn't help a poor children who was just struck by a vehicle? Your question implies an assumption that witnesses let people die without blinking an eye. Let's not try to use any situation to blame them. The kids too should have been more careful. Streets are not for skateboarding purposes.

WITNESSES FEAR THE TRUTH - WIKIPEDIA
by The Searcher inevery time i submit the following update to wikipeda - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/kingdom_hall#funding - some poor deluded individual/s keeps deleting.. i wonder who it could be?????????.
"as of may 2014, the funding of kingdom hall construction around the world has changed, as per the instructions of the governing body's letter to all congregations, downloadable from this link - http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/bible/279067/1/2014-03-29-boe-confidentials-pdf-adjustment-to-financing-kingdom-hall-and-assembly-hall-construction-worldwide.
the previous form of funding was facilitated by entirely by voluntary donations.

The problem is that you're being subjective, you let your opinion in the article. Omit the "if not more" and the last phrase about them reading only the first page and not the entire letter. Or try to rephrase it in a way that it sounds more objective.
Give this a try and let's see how it works out. If i'd be a beleiver witness I'd definitely delete what you wrote or at least edit it just because of what I've mentioned above.

200,000$??? for what? They could construct 6 KH in my country with that amount of money. Not that I care, it's just silly.
About the letter: Ladies and gentleman, this is a giant step for the org, slowly, step by step they introduce a membership fee.
