Quote from GB post:
"The Society has even published articles as far back as 1981 encouraging the brothers and sisters to feel free to invest in the stock market. I remember one articlethat discussed how to engage in short-selling. They encouraged the friends to utilize investment experts."
Can this be checked out by someone? Because if there are articles like this then he is right on the investments by the society? Most big corporations invest as part of their portfolio, I see no reason why the WTBTS business wouldn't do so either. Many Brothers invest, I know several in at least 4 congregations that do so.
And they are all Elders. So if this is wrong then why hasn't something been done?
It seemed to me that "Bethelite" was a bit out of breath and not thinking clear in his effort to quickly come hear and "warn" us.
The GB member here said that not all GB memebers know all of the details of things becasue the Organization is so large, so how would a bethelite who is a step down or two know all? Could be he just thinks this and is not totally informed.
