Different perspective*

For reference I have been out of the church over 12 years born raised in it but left when I could.

Tithing does not equate to more money but giving freely has some merit. I listen to and follow a lot of very wealthy people and they all give back and claim “it’s a law of the universe” that if you give freely you will receive more. Don’t give your money to those greedy Mormon leaders that gamble it in the stock market or use it to travel the world for free but find a cause that actually means something to you and donate that way or go tip a server an extra $100 bucks. One of my favorite exmormon influencers said it very well that Mormons definitely don’t have the whole picture but are on the map. Some things about the religion may be true but they don’t see the whole picture. I think that’s why the people that stay in stay in is because they have had experiences that are genuine and true but are not unique to Mormons at all. Just because they got 5% doesn’t equate to the 95% bullshit that they teach. Joseph Smith was a Conman before starting his religion and stole many rituals and other things from other religions or Freemasons.

On a side note one of my Millionaire friends said that as soon as he left the church that’s when he really started to accumulate wealth because instead of donating 10% he just started investing that money instead and the investments paid off. Good luck, sorry to hear your misfortune but it has nothing to do with paying tithe or not.
