We can measure success in various ways.
I was kind of
surprised that the video claims that the Mormon Church net-worth is
hundreds of Billions of dollars ----approaching A TRILLION DOLLARS
with a membership of only 3 million members.
They have 400
BILLION OF CASH GENERATING ASSETS LIKE STOCK, INVESTMENTS, ETC.
The speaker mentions
that JUST DURING COVID----- the Church made 20 BILLION in returns from
investment in Amazon, Tesla, Game Stock, etc.
He said that if all
the members stopped giving monies to the Church, on investments ALONE
at 7 percent return, the Mormon Church could function ETERNALLY.
That IS a lot of
money for a shrinking church.
Compare that to the
Watchtower who is selling Kingdom Halls every day, begging for
monies, cutting full time servants from Bethel and sending them home,
cutting publications, There is just no comparison who is more
successful.
It’s like a
business with 50 employees making 100 million a year in profits vs
another business with ONE million employees making ONE million a year
in profits.
I would consider
that aspect in itself to be a much better indicator of Success and
longevity of the Mormon church than any other thing the Watchtower
has going at this time.
Membership as a means of measuring success
would be secondary in a case like this.
I had no idea the Mormon Church Net Worth was this much.
