The GB should take their own advice:
*** km 12/90 p. 4 Your Role in Building for the Future ***
FINANCING KINGDOM HALL CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS
12 Arrangements for any needed financing should be made at the outset. (Luke 14:28-30)*** yy chap. 12 p. 87 par. 7 Do You Finish What You Start? ***
if you want to finish what you start, count the cost beforehand. (italics theirs)*** yp1 p. 305 Appendix—Questions Parents Ask ***
Money management. Do your older children know how to fill out a tax return or what they need to do to comply with local tax laws? Can they budget their income and then live within their means?*** pm chap. 2 p. 32 par. 20 Why Highest Hopes Were Disappointed ***
Jehovah is not the kind of God that has the foundation of a building laid and then finds himself unable to complete the building, so that all the onlookers should “start to ridicule him*** g77 8/8 p. 21 Should You Build It Yourself? ***
Before starting to build, determine what limitations are imposed by your financial resources. Can you really afford to build?*** g78 10/8 p. 16 Use Material Assets Wisely ***
It is indeed the wise course for a person to analyze beforehand whether he can take on a particular financial responsibility.*** g98 8/22 p. 22 How Can I Earn Some Money? ***
A word of caution: Don’t rush into any enterprise before studying all the costs and factors involved... Of course, there is the danger of taking on more than you can handle*** g00 7/22 p. 27 How Can I Make a Success of My Stay Abroad? ***
As with any big decision you face in life, it is wise to count the cost first*** w59 11/15 pp. 690-691 par. 26 Practical Wisdom in the Space Age ***
To get the security or the protection of property that a watchtower makes possible, one has to have the funds with which to complete it to its required height. To avoid ridicule or the poking of fun at one, one has to be practical in wisdom and calculate first whether one has enough money to complete the proposed tower, before one ever starts building and wasting time, material, energy and money and showing unwisdom.*** w85 11/1 p. 23 par. 7 The Beauty of the Christian Personality ***
the man of God will watch that he and his family do not accumulate burdensome debts, knowing that these can lead to trying problems. This, of course, means he will not allow himself and his family to live beyond their means. He is a person who will count the cost before embarking on a particular course.*** w92 8/15 p. 27 Have You Counted the Cost? ***
For example, if a person wanted to buy a house, would he rush into signing a contract without even finding out the cost and making sure he has the financial ability to complete the deal? He would be considered foolish indeed if he did such a thing. Yes, it is common sense to count the cost before one begins an undertaking.*** w94 9/15 p. 31 Questions From Readers ***
If many others perceived a Christian as irresponsible or untrustworthy, he might have sullied the good reputation that he had striven for and thus no longer have a fine testimony from outsiders.—1 Timothy 3:2, 7.*** w04 10/15 p. 6 Benefit by Pursuing Spiritual Values ***
Make a budget. The Bible states: “The plans of the diligent one surely make for advantage, but everyone that is hasty surely heads for want.” (Proverbs 21:5) Jesus advised his listeners to count the cost before undertaking any financial projectAll of these articles referenced the Bible principle at Luke 14:28-30 ". . .who of you wanting to build a tower does not first sit down and calculate the expense to see if he has enough to complete it? Otherwise, he might lay its foundation but not be able to finish it, and all the onlookers would start to ridicule him, saying: ‘This man started to build but was not able to finish.’ "
The self proclaimed Faithful Slave have MISSPENT the masters Talent. They have publicly admitted and proven themselves to be anything but 'discreet'. They are the Wicked Slave who cannot be trusted by the master.
They no longer have a fine testimony from outsiders, are not sound in mind and are lovers of money. They do not know how to preside over their household, let alone the household of God.

Worst one I ever saw was an older sister getting out of someone's car, not looking behind her as she slams the door shut, and catches the seat belt buckle in the door. Not satisfied with that she opens the door again and gives it another almighty slam shut, catching the buckle a second time.
Dented both the door and the bodywork, not that she was bothered.

" there are three things that are never satisfied--no, four that never say, "enough!

Keep reading those verses...
(Proverbs 30:21, 22) . . .There are three things that make the earth shudder And four things it cannot endure: When a slave rules as king, When a fool is glutted with food. . .

What drives me mad is when the kids lean up against your car with all their coat zips and buttons scuffing the paintwork.
I've never known a collection of people so deficient in common sense.
Another (slightly related) example of stupidity, we were out in FS one day when a thunderstorm came out of nowhere - masses of rain, it came down in buckets.
Some of us saw it coming and had just enough time to run back to the car.
Others just stood like post boxes in the rain, getting drenched through, even though there were phone boxes and bus shelters nearby.
One sister just stood sobbing as the rain poured through her coat and clothes.That was the end of FS that day and the soaked through ones were looking for lifts back into town.
Not in my car thanks, soaking the upholstery. I shot off before they got near enough to ask.

It doesn't matter how much money the WT get, they will always overspend and want more.
This is what you get from a gluttonous and insatiable organisation with no idea how the real world works.
This "do more, give more" organisation will never be satisfied.

The Sign of Jonah

i was asked this:.
how can this apply to jesus when he was not in the grave for 3 nights?.

Barnes commentary notes something interesting to account for the fact Jesus was NOT in the ground for three days and nights.
"It will be seen in the account of the resurrection of Christ that he was in the grave but two nights and a part of three days. This computation is, however, strictly in accordance with the Jewish mode of reckoning. If it had “not” been, the Jews would have understood it, and would have charged our Saviour as being a false prophet, for it was well known to them that he had spoken this prophecy (Mat_27:63). Such a charge, however, was never made; and it is plain, therefore, that what was “meant” by the prediction was accomplished. It was a maxim, also, among the Jews, in computing time, that a part of a day was to be received as the whole. Many instances of this kind occur in both sacred and profane history."
