    Hey evidently, I'm recent here to. I seem to have issues in common, I can't yet but hope to some day feel the relief of telling my story. People are beginning to note my attitude and so I am having to be cautious.

    Welcome, I have found genuine people here - it's a starting place.

    I bid you welcome, Evidently Apostate.

    May you learn much here. Mind you, this forum can be as much a circus as any: be warned. Otherwise just have fun here.

    Welcome! I have a JW wife as well so I can relate. Not to mention my JW parents, JW sibling, and many JW in-laws. Hooray for cults!

    Welcome, Evidently Apostate!!!

    You said:

    "i had just found out i was being screwed on a real estate development project by another self righteous jw i have known for a long time but this was a big loss (about 4 months pay plus expenses). i have lost more money employing and working with my brothers than non jws ..."

    Funny that you should mention that...

    When I was still "in" - [and I got "out" 24-odd years ago] - my Jehovah's Witness ex-husband was ripped off many times by his "brothers"... I got the impression that the average JW male seemed to have an inferiority complex (no college...) and desperately wanted to become independently rich - by any means necessary...

    They all thought that, WHEN they became "independently wealthy", they'd make up for it by "pioneering"...

    Anyway, WELCOME to the board!!

    Zid - the she-devil...
