    His Vietnam experiences have been questioned on this forum and he stated on one of Cedars videos that his father is a wealthy man.

    Yes, I believe you could describe him that way. He speaks in another talk about how his parents told him as a youngster that he would never need to do manual labour, i.e. "you'll never need to change a tyre". Apparently he was earmarked for the medical profession, and perhaps this had something to do with his involvement in Vietnam in a medical capacity. If he was born in 1950, then he would have been only 21 when baptized, so it's really anyone's guess what he did in the intervening years between his 2-year military stint and entering the circuit work. However, with a wealthy father to back him financially, my guess is that he never needed to work too hard when it came to supporting his family - especially since he was able to pioneer while his children were still young. His wife even pioneered with him once both sons had entered school.

    this is what really pi$$es me off. He has the gall to stand up and criticize hard working pioneers for using a credit card. We had a CO like this a few

    years back. I knew of him when I was a teenager. A rich kid and daddy made sure he never went without. He came to our hall, no one but me

    knew of his background and he LIED about the area of the country where he came from and never said much about his family.

    He was telling many in the congregation to quit their jobs sell their houses and Jah would provide. Look at me he said. Jah provides. The funny

    thing is we weren't told the whole story that his poppa was a rich businessman from another city and that the CO was a "consultant" in his fathers

    business.
