That's why I am sitting here wondering why Archaea considers 250k/yr a big hit on their income.
That would put them in the top 1% of Americans. THey have to sacrifice to come down to the top 1%?
What about the saints that make less than 250k? Will they all be hometeachers?
(BTW, some of the apostles were not well off when called, many died relatively poor, and I don't know that the 250k figure is accurate).
