How much do you put in the offering plate at church in Sundays?

Nothing. I’m a musician and I play for them and get paid way less than I should be. If they paid me more, Id might give.

I view it as the cost of admission. Its a pre-built network of people who typically lack the capital to be productive or acquire higher skillsets for themselves. This is why there's a lot of money to be made in church. The best lawyers and tax accountants I've ever seen get a lot of their clients from church.


You can also use a church community to leverage risk. Almost like an insurance policy on your life. My own mother didn’t tell me this is why she kept going until I was 19. She had me talking about commandments and magic sky people right until she told me what’s up as an adult. :mjlol:

I give ten percent of my pay after taxes
The Lord has blessed me and continues to bless me

Like I said go to a church where you can see the books and there is a board. My church does so much great things in our community I love it :blessed:
