We had an uber spiritual family friend (a finance director) who was put in charge of overseeing rooming, hotels, travel on a large scale for the society.
He quickly realised that the brothers were being totally ripped off by all the higher hotel charges, travel charges etc the society were insisting to travel and stay at society events.
He tried to reason with the society that the brothers could get places and rates at much better prices that the organisation were promoting.
He was basically told to get lost and shut up or quit the privilege.
He quit the 'privilege' in disgust.
