i have been told that the cost to build a new kingdom hall is $500k +.
i have a background in commercial construction and this seems pretty high to me, considering all the free labor.
that is just the cost of the building, excluding the lot price.
My brother's congregation is doing a remodeling including a small addition and he tells me the RBC takes care of everything. The local congregation just pay the bill. Purchasing and accounting is done by the RBC...that's quite different from back when I was involved in building our hall. Everything was purchased locally by the local elders and we knew exactly how much everything cost...where we saved money over the estimated cost enabled us to upgrade the seating and pave the parking lot...with this new process I wouldn't be surprised if any savings or a defined % of the cost is sent to the WTS...
this is yet another baby step in my exit from the watchtowers control over my life.
in the us the mega-millions jackpot is up to 587 million $.
tickets are a dollar.
Good luck. I won 50k with a free ticket from McD when I was still in and a MS. I did some research in the publications to get "Jéhovah's" view on the matter. The oldest articles stated that it was left to your conscience to accept or not since technically you hadn't wagered any money to acquire the ticket. The most recent article reversed "Jehovah's" view by saying the money was raised through a disaproved activity and accepting the prize money would be like accepting diamonds as a gift knowing they were stolen. I seriously considered not claiming the prize not to lose my service privilèges. This got me thinking ot the situation where it is OK to accept blood fractions acquired through blood donation...an activity disaproved by God...
One year after I found TTATT and left the cult and I occasionally buy tickets...you never know what may happen.
i received a parcel at work from my daughter and her boyfriend.
it contained a birthday card in the shape of a motorcycle leather jacket and a book on rides you can take using the back roads in my part of the world!
my eyes filled with tears as i was reading the card.
Great idea NSupply. She wants a new tablet...so it will be a Samsung Note 10.1 for Christmas!

Thanks Jake...I'm am few years older than you and I no feel the need for speed...of course you have little control on how others drive...this is why I love the back roads.

My b day was yesterday....12-12
this was me driving into the parking lot and into the kingdom hall:.
every week the same brothers and sisters are late getting to the meeting.
elders are talking with other elders ( who always have notes and folders in their hands).
Island Man...in our congregation we had a kissing-hugging elder that never called or visited after I stopped attending meetings. As you said it was all a plastic display of affection.

Losingit...does it matter how your spouse looks like, is much older or in poor health today when you believe that soon in the new system he or she will be perfect in every way? Then soon turn into decades of putting up with a mismatched spouse...that would be worst than remaining single.

Thank you all for your wishes. Beers and wings after my Friday night hockey game.

SFPW if you want to see hater's comments read over the WT study on apostates or review your personal notes from last summer's DC.
