  WT Society SEC Records : Hedge Funds, Cayman Islands, Financial Losses - Links

  by flipper in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  so my wife and i were curious so i researched some financial links and found records indicating that the wt society has been operating at a loss since the year 2012. as you read the links it shows a loss of 10 million $$$ in 2012, about 16 million $$$ in 2013, and a whopping loss of 56 million $$$ in 2014 - where the expenditures exceeded the revenues for each of those years in the amount i've mentioned.

  also there is a link on this same website with the sec records indicating that the wt society and it's representatives funneled 40 million $$$$ into hedge funds in the cayman islands as early as 2007. if you look online on other sites you can see evidence that indicates the wt society attended hedge fund conferences to look into more shadiness in 2011 and isn't it curious that by 2012 the wt society started showing losses.

  anyway here is the link : https://www.watchtowerlies.com/the_watchtower_revenue.html .. feel free to check this link out and other links on that link indicating the cayman island connection.

  Hey Flipper,

  All those statements are mumbo jumbo to me but it is a perfect example of what sociopaths who run the Wt. do. Still Totally ADD

  So sick of the abuse...

  i am still serving as an elder but just hanging in there.

  i think their quandry is that they don't see me out in the field, but when they need encouragement and decent prayer they come to me.. i just got off the phone to this poor sister who i have only met twice.

  she is not even in my congregation (her sister is).

  Elder for 25 years and now a atheist. You did good. All the years I served I was always wishing there was more elders like you. Maybe if there was I would have stayed in and then maybe not. The toll must be hard on you. I know that feeling quite to well. Take care of yourself because there will come a point in your life this will come to a head. At this point you will need to be at the top of your game so you can make the right decisions for yourself and your family. Stay well. Still Totally ADD

  Bethel Layoff Notices arrive under Bethellite doors

  by Quarterback in

  2. friends

  just heard from a reliable source that some at the canadian branch have received their lay-off notices under their doors at bethel.

  don't know what the letter looks like.

  probably something like, " the tribe has spoken, bring us your torches"

  Here is a thought Sparrowdown because of all the sexual rape cases coming out the Wt. will use this closing down of KH, large building sites and sending home everyone. As a reason for doing this because Satan is now using the governments to attack them. They will say all the accusations are false and this shows the big A is very near. So find the nearest basement or cave and hide. After all the smoke is cleared it will business as usual. Just a thought. Still totally ADD

  Good news/bad news but really good news all because of a wonderful board member

  this last week i was e-mailed that my aunt had died.

  she was 95 years old and had a long a good life with a loving family around her.

  the reason this is more good news than bad is because due to the help of a member on this board i was able to reconnect with her.

  Could you imagine if I never made contact with my aunt. I would not know if she was still alive. I would have never got to talk to her and learn the other side of the story of why I she never talked to my parents again. How she saw the evil in the Wt. and how happy she was that I made it out of the cult. It was a very heart warming conversation I had with her. It will be a memory I will never forget.

The reason this is more good news than bad is because due to the help of a member on this board I was able to reconnect with her. Because of this cult I was born into I never knew very much about my so called worldly relatives. My parents had nothing to do with them. It was not until I found out I may have a 1/2 brother out there I have never meant did a wonderful person on this board PM me and asked if she could help. She never could find my so called 1/2 brother but found several cousins and my aunt on my dads side. I was so thrilled I called my aunt and talked to her for over a hour. My wife said I was finally connecting with other family members for the first time in my life. It caused a inner peace within myself. So I want to thank a very special person who made all this possible. Thank you so much ( LoisLane looking for Superman). You made my life better and more fulfilled. I continue to maintain a close relationship with my 3 cousin by e-mail and cards and it was all because of you. You have made this world a little better because of your hard work. Thank you so much. Take care. Still Totally ADD

  Why did you choose Jehovahs Witnesses?

  by vinman in

  2. experiences

  i'm wondering why ones on this forum initially became jw's.

  if you were born in, why did you make it "your own"?

  if you became one later, what was your draw and driving force?

  I was a born-in. Born in 1954 my parents was told I would never go to school. At 16 years of age got baptized. In 1972 I graduated from high school. Got married in 1974 mostly because of 1975. With that said why did I become a Jw. The example I will use may help many understand why born-ins become JW. Growing up being a JW was all I knew. Nothing else. Being told what to do and when to do it was normal for me. Like it is was normal for me to eat meat for food. It was not until I was in my late 20's I heard about people who did not eat meat. I had no idea there was people like that. I knew the Wt. taught in the new system we would not eat meat any more but didn't know there was ones who did that now. This is a simple example that may help others to understand why many born-ins become JW. They know nothing else. They had never experience anything else outside the box of the JW cult. You may ask why could you not reason you was in a cult or something was wrong? You can't because your thinking is the thinking of JW cult reasoning mind not a free critical thinking person. It took 55 years before I woke up and that is only because I broke down and got help for my depression. I was able to see outside the box for the first time in my life. I hope this helps.

  What blondie just said. This is all a media smoke screen to keep people from learning and thinking about the real issues that this country has. This is exactly what the big corporations and billionaires want the public to put all their energy into. If the American public learned how they are being manipulated by corporate owned media their hair would catch on fired or maybe not. To many are to lazy to go beyond what they see on TV news. Many of us here fought hard to get out of the Wt. cult so we could see the light. This is what many Americans will have to do to see the light of what is going on with the corporate driven propaganda media machine. My two cents worth. Still Totally ADD

  If the elders were abused sexually this problem would have been taken care of long time ago.

  i feel the real problem with the wt cult concerning child abuse is it happens to children not adult men.

  notice i didn't say adult women because they don't care about adult women either.

  i remember a c.o.

  Thank you rebelfighter for your life experience in helping children and thank you OrphanCrow for the research on these matters. It seems this subject brings strong feelings. I know I felt like I had been beaten up after writing this post. But I do feel doing this is good for the soul. Still Totally ADD
