/christian/ - Christian Discussion and Fellowship

I'm too much of a brainlet to do investments, so I'd just keep like 200,000 to myself because I'm broke and give the rest to charities, probably.

Create an industrial company and employ people with decent salary, creating new jobs and benefiting country and people.

Most of the profit would go in expanding company, creating even more jobs, especially in poor areas, to create living conditions there to avoid depopulation of rural areas, developing infrastructure in less developed regions, reconstructing historical sites, building new churches and restoring the old ones financing missionary expeditions in other countries.

As for actual personal uses… I dont know, I'm actually quite comfy already despite not having massive income (to say the least). Maybe finally buying Paradox Interactive strategy games, instead of pirating them.

>paying the stupidity tax in the first place

If it was only as simple as giving money to the poor. The mainstrean donation foundations/organizations are corrupt, such as Saint Judes. They take much more money for themselves than is needed. I mean more than just expenses and stuff for upkeep.

If you really want to help, maybe start your own? Idk man. Make your own free soup kitchen? I know without money, you can still help out alot.

>>607166

>giving almost all this money to the poor

Modern ((charities)) are incredibly corrupt, I'd rather use the money to either start my own charity group or just directly help the plight of the poor than just give it away.

I would just open my own charity and whoever comes to me, I'd give them whatever they need.

The two can be equivalent - you can give to an endowed fund. It would be better for tax purposes to put the money in a charitable trust immediately though.

>>607166

>$30,000,000

Build 150 churches.

>>607166

Option C:

>Build a monastery and say goodbuy to wage slavery

>>607256

>goodbuy

Wew maybe I should build a remedial English school

I'll invest it and make even more, enough to buy an island from a poor country and create Christendom

Keeping the money and investing some of it. I want to help my fellow man, but I want to at least enjoy a portion of my newfound wealth. Besides I don't think I'll be buying mansions and supercars and such. Just a nice 3 bedroom house and a nice used car.

>>607166

Starting and funding my own ultra-nationalist political movement. Neither can the poor be helped, nor will the church fix the world.

Investing = financing a rotten world order.

I like the second idea. You could start some kind of business in some down-run area, give your employees their first job, train them with the skills needed to do the job and get certifications and then let your workplace be where they get their work experience. The entire thing would be run at a loss though so it wouldn't last forever but yeah! The money would plant the seed for change in those impoverished men, giving them the opportunity they otherwise wouldn't get at all to advance themselves.

>>607166

>Keep only what I need to clear debts

>The rest goes to the ones who need it more than me

>Neither want or have in excess

I like this idea too.

How does /christian/ feel about deliberately blinding chimpanzees and then using head-mounted cameras in combination with a small computer (raspberry pi or just a smartphone of some sort) and earphones so train the chimpanzees to "see" with sound? The cameras present the computer with an image, that image is converted into sound and the chimpanzee hears the sound. Since it's just a sound, AR-features can be included quite easily.

The whole issue facing drones right now is that despite their potential ability, they still need to learn how to see. This bypasses the problem of sight and instead, focuses on the chimpanzees latent ability. In my /pol/ days, I was always afraid of this. I was afraid of Jung's theories being true, of there being such a thing as a "racial soul" and that should chimpanzees be utilised in this way, they would evolve at which point, it would no longer be ethical to enslave them and thus, they too would have to be exterminated, just like all the other races. With /christian/ however, I look forward to all of us, chimpanzees included, going to heaven.

Then again, what exactly is the /christian/ stance on Jung's theories of a supposed "collective unconscious"? Is it even /christian/ to assume that chimpanzees would collectively evolve if they were trained en masse to use tools?

I just checked the pets thread and it seems chimpanzees can't go to heaven since God never gave them immortal souls. The only issue now is whether or not they can develop.

The second option. You can't just give money away and expect it to go to good use, when a lot of the "charities" meant to help people are hording the money and using the charity for evil means.

Best example? Haiti disaster. Oxfam's aid workers were using the money to pay the survivors for sex. The underage girls claim is "unproven", but that is false, especially with how the Clinton foundation were involved with Haiti.

Best thing to do is to take care of yourself and your family first and save as much as you can. If you want to invest in something or be charitable, you have to research and investigate thoroughly. If you go bankrupt/lose all the money, you won't be able to help anyone.

Don't get greedy, don't grow cold. Don't replace God.

God has given you a gift - or rather, a duty. Use it productively.

I don't think there will be much life on Earth capable of developing after mankind project is done.

>>607166

Really depends on the situation you're in. For me it would be:

>keep around 5 million for myself so I can be set for life in a comfortable house in the woods

>use around 5 million to start lots of businesses around my city because everyone is unemployed, they would likely be factories since they don't require the nearby populace to buy their products to stay in operation (my city is poor) and because they're about the right education level as my city

>use another 5 million to build cheap housing for the new workers

>use around 5 million setting up shelters to help local homeless get their lives together, help drug addicts get off drugs, etc

>keep another 5 million to help my family out (my aunt recently lost her house in a fire for example)

>give the final 5 million to the Church making sure that they exclusively pour it into aid for the poor or education for kids

>>608271

Chimpanzees have entered the Stone Age.

>>608812

>>give the final 5 million to the Church making sure that they exclusively pour it into aid for the poor or education for kids

How do you do that? What's even the point of giving it to the Church if you don't trust how they'll use the money?

I'd spend every last penny raising an army to retake Jerusalem. :^)

>>608827

I meant just make sure they're gonna use it more directly instead of using it on rebuilding parts of a church or something.

>>607166

donate it to Jordan peterson then clean my room then donate it to other e-celebs again x^)

>>608837

Where did he touch you, Anon?

Can Constantinople be next?
