You've got something here...
There was a time when the number of homes remain steadily at about 2000 when he started pushing for tithes to be $100 (I was explained later that it was really a wake up call to homes in rich countries like the US). I was giving about $20-30 at the time and I know of other homes in poor countries who were about that much. A rough calculation is
250 homes in the US times $100 = $ 25,000
1750 homes left over at $25 = $ 43,750
total = $ 68,750 per month
Roughly, about 1 million dollars a year.
Considering that maybe some of the reported homes were non-revenue but consumers (WS, for example), even if we assign a 40% for expenses and a 10% for loss of revenue we will have about half a million dollars left!!!
