Rent, dont buy,-- rents here is easily over 2000
Work part time-- the biggest cause of strife is poverty
More ignorant advice from those who live off the sweat of other's work.Rent, don't buy. All you are doing is paying the mortgage of the homeowner.
Work part time. Less money and no benefits. No health insurance. No retirement.
I remember very well that the Apostle Paul supported himself through the making and selling of tents. How many tents have the Governing Body made this week to earn their keep in their ivory tower?

Reporter: Did you tell your members to do this?
Watchtower: We gave no such order.
Reporter: Have you told your members to stop doing this?
Watchtower: <deafening silence>

I recall hearing from time to time that brothers would do repair work on Kingdom Halls/Assembly Halls and then give an invoice to the Elders. Many times said invoice would be returned with a note that simply stated, "Thank you for your contribution."
Imagine mailing the legal bill the Watchtower racked up and send it to all active Witnesses with a note that read, "Thank you for your contribution."

Growing up the Book Study was a big deal. I always remembered hearing as a kid that one day we might only be able to meet in homes during the Great Tribulation. Conventions was the other big thing.
Now all meetings have to be at a Kingdom Hall and Conventions are being held at Assembly Halls. Meanwhile, the super studio is being build so that no structure will be needed. All Watchtower properties can be sold for a profit.

Here's a theory - the god of the Old Testament is not the god of the New Testament Jesus speaks of.

I will not take credit for the following. The idea came to me during a funeral (non-JW). The so of the deceased read 1 Corinthians 13:4-8a. The son then read it, but changed the word "love" to his father's name. That gave me an idea...
4 Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous. It does not brag, does not get puffed up, 5 does not behave indecently, does not look for its own interests, does not become provoked. It does not keep account of the injury. 6 It does not rejoice over unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth. 7 It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never fails.
Try replacing the word "love" or its pronoun with whatever word, person, organization you like.
