I personally think, that when the 10% came in he figured things out for himself. After all he was in God`s business, or wasn`t he.
And did he really have to care for his and his childrens daily and monthly living expenses like: rent, water,electricity, heating,food, health insurance, school utilities clothing etc.? No, cause at least 10% from each home came in not to speak of other donations. Even provisionig had to be tithed. Oh how stupid and blind and ignorant "Faith" can make.
But I don`t really care for his financal goals all I care is getting his writings out of my mind. I had been brainwashed for over 20 years.
Remember the Letter: Backsliders beware!
When I think about it now it is more or less blackmailing, a threat. If you don`t stay in, you can see what "could" happen.
But why do you, Ruth want to know this?
