  3 million is a nice chunk of change.     If handled properly it can make a difference for generations to come.      If handled poorly it can ruin generations to come.      Good luck and have some fun with it before you pass it on.

  i am not a jw ...however i began having bible studies (i d call them watchtower studies).

  i was beginning to get lured in and brainwashed into accepting the religion as the true religion...but something inside of me told me there was something odd.

  some time passes and i was invited to a meeting and i accepted.

  Congrats!      Hopefully you got removed without creating too much extra stress in your family.       I am still a servant and would like to step down in the not too distant future.       If you have any pointers, please share them.
