Remember the special seminar that was put on by Kevin Wilson in Santa Barbara to help them learn how to make and save money?

Well, the results are in. And they are not pretty.

About 20 people showed up… No idea how many of them are staff. Or from other areas than Santa Barbara. Some commenters here may know some of these people.

This happy bunch ended up paying over $4500 to “ideality” for the pleasure of attending a seminar on fiscal prudence.

But they also broke the big news. Over the next two days they managed to collect a total of $10,000 which means they are “more than halfway” to paying off their MORTGAGE — only $290,000 to go!

This news is about as surprising as Tampa Org completing the letter A of the never-ending CF project.

After nearly 15 years of working on an “ideal org” they announce this $10,000 will be an “important step” “on the way” to getting an “ideal” org so they can being to take “full responsibility” for their zone. Because they have to pay off their mortgage to get to square one in the ideal org rat race. And after 15 years they are still not even halfway to getting started.

With a runway like this, 2050 may even be an unrealistic target.

Can you imagine what it is like in Hawaii and Albuquerque?

And they constantly promote WUS as the “first ideal continent.” And I think that is absolutely true. WUS is far ahead of everywhere else. In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is king. So too, in the land of the great “birthday game race” where most of the horses have been flogged to death, the broken down nag wins every race.

Frankly, more than ever, this is all looking rather pathetic.

But good news – Dear Leader does not have to worry about having OT IX and X ready to go as soon as all orgs are ideal. That was always a safe bet.

Glad the crowd was “up tone” (code word for totally lost touch with reality)….
