Seabreeze- At assembly halls they where charging a fee per person by congregation. Was with accounts. The reason was for lights and air conditioning. But at the rate the charge they over charged the brothers. They always had enough for operating cost.

Promise Not to Make Appeals for Money
by Sea Breeze in"when he who says: ‘all the gold and silver of the mountains are mine,’ fails to provide necessary funds, we will understand it to be time to suspend the [watchtower] publication.” consistent with that, there is no begging for money in the literature of jehovah’s witnesses.. what is true of their literature is also true of their meetings.
there are no emotional appeals for funds in their congregations or at their conventions.

My Dad is Rancher and Texas Oil man. Without giving to much way. One special needs meeting was directed toward my Dad because the brothers wanted money for a special "Kingdumb Project " how those who are better off should help. No ideal what the project was. My dad never gave them money. And what made it suspicious was the special needs talk was a week after the elder body came to the ranch asking for money.

Seabreeze- maybe I came off unclear. At every convention there is deficit. Outrageous charge for parking and head price to attend. Then, talks about giving your valuables for Kingdumb interest. Willing houses and property to Watchtower when you die. They don't say ask for it directly.....

Drinking expensive drinks - seriously looked down upon as a JW
by Anony Mous ini remember when i was a jw, drinking a good wine or other liquor was looked down upon.
it’s better to put that money towards the worldwide work donations i always got told.
so the best thing i ever got was johnny walker red back then (johnny walker is cheap blend).

What Did You Think Of The Songs Sung At The Kingdom Hall?
by minimus inwhen i was younger we had song books and i recall that some of the songs were pretty catchy.
then they revised it took some of those songs out, and added more.
i have to admit some songs were pretty good.
