Thank you for your generous donations‼️😂
It doesn't look like they took a vow of poverty to me...💎
They didn't, wrong religion
It's always seemed a little odd to me how much bling these mainly elderly men wear on their hands. I can't think of any male friends of mine that wear anything more than their wedding rings. I don't know if there's any significance to their jewelry wearing, but it could be viewed as being immodest by rank and file JWs. It's also a bit insensitive towards the poor brothers and sisters to be unnecessarily showing it off.
I felt bad wearing my wedding ring (when I was married) because of how they have always talked bad about material possessions.
wow...i wrote almost the same comment then saw yours...haha
Oh, you haven't seen me yet. When I was in( starting from about 14/15 years old) you'd always catch me wearing my rings. In the beginning, I'd wear 4 mood rings with different animals on them. I'd have one my left ring, left index, right ring and right middle finger, but then later simplified to 2 rings; a normal gold one on my left ring finger and a golden one with an onyx stone on my right middle finger. Sometimes, I'd get the odd look from my best friend (ironically, he was the first to wake up), but for the most part, no one said anything. Second best decision I ever made was not becoming an unbaptised publisher or higher; if you don't join their ranks, you're untouchable.
I noticed when Watchtower started making videos in the 1990’s that a lot of well to do JWs were used…they were seen as owing really nice homes, driving expensive automobiles like BMW, Cadillac, and others.
@@hustonmices3976 Watchtower has told JWs for decades to live simple and modestly…and yet I noticed that Watchtower keeps on building superfluous structures and wealthy JWs flaunt their wealth by owning several homes, cars, and other things. If the wealthy keep on giving Watchtower the green handshakes then it’s ok to live extravagantly.
Regarding the rings, my exJW friend writes about his past in Kazakhstan:
My grandmother gave me a ring made to order for 11 grams of gold. I gave a public speech when those ring was on my hand. After that I got ostracized because of him.
When I referred to a video where "Faithful discreet slave" was wearing such rings, they told me that they are anointed and live in the USA, where this is the norm. But we don't.
And there have always been such excuses.
"They can, we can't because... blablabla"
Holy dam 😂
The GB takes part in a contest of elegance broadcast all over the planet. This competition is called the 2022 convention.
lol, post pandemic recession where?? bling galore💍🧥💎👔
"thank you for your contributions that makes it possible for the Jehovahs leadership to be so materialistic... and remember the governing body love you very much."
Great video, love the end "it's all about me"
Got curious, the internet say: 1) A ring worn on the pinky is to indicate a man's wealth and status. 2) Once you were officially inducted into the mafia, you got a special pinky ring. 3) In Roman mythology, each finger is associated with a specific God. The pinky is set aside for Mercury, the messenger God. He is also the god of mischief and practical jokes.
Luciferins also wear pinkie rings.
Lol My Italian dad has worn pinky rings for as long as I can remember. Confirmation from the interwebs that he IS a good fella 😆
It’s the Freemasons. There’s other signs, like the pillars on jw.Borg.🕊
@@Des7iny7 I believe the ones on top are a part of some secret society.
@@Des7iny7correct. Probably a sign of the 33.3degree (highest rank) that’s half of 66.6 degrees. Satans servants.
i literally showed my mom and commented to her about this and she proceeded to say “we don’t know if they’re real” the amount of fury i felt LMAO so sad how they’re going to be waiting for an end that will never be
It will happen, but it’s called death, not Armageddon 🕊
Hang in there Betzy. Pray that your mom "wakes up" and you will be there to support her when she needs you.
Denial..., that's exactly what an older sister said: it is probably an imitation from the flea market lol yeah right just like the ones the pope wears hahah. Poor thing it is devastating for them to realize they wasted their entire life to a fantasy.
Oh there’s an end coming … just not the one they’ve been preaching about for the last 100 years …
Cognitive dissonance. 100%
The music killed me 🤣
Fr😂
Got to keep them in the luxury they have been used to with your contributions loyal JWs.
True peace is only a result of expensive suits, ties, and gold jewelry. If you take an all-expenses-paid vacation, just be quiet about it and enjoy your "peace." Thank you all for the donations that make such peacemaking, luxurious jewelry, clothing, and lifestyle possible.
And yet messiah had no place to lay his head
Yo, my boy be drippin in gold. The chain is a bold, though; I was never that brave.
Hi Phil, do you think that if the regular brothers in the congregation started to wear these same watches, tie pins and rings that they would be counseled?
Of course i don't think that many could afford them . Money flows uphill 💯
" Money flows uphill," perfectly stated.
Some look ok, some cheap, a couple look higher dollar. Can't REALLY tell. Higher rez needed! Tony III appears higher dollar, elegant! Tasteful. I likee!
@@gnoter2 Only the finest for Jesus' intermediary. I'm sure Jesus weeps with envy at the sumptuous life of his "channel."
@@sandraclark2235 😂😂😂👍🏼
No. Most would be admired/congratulated!! For upping there style choices. Those knowledgeable will notice!!
We got counseled for materialism when we bought a (very nicely priced) used luxury car. When we said it only cost 11grand, they backed off and everyone sure liked riding in it out in service.
Invece di dire a Toni Morris che 850 dollari di Wischy di fascia alta, vengono dalle piccole contribuzioni di fratelli che amano Geova e che non sono soldi suoi vista che mantiene sia sua mogli che il WISCHIY che beve anche lei senza lavorare .
I've only know of one instance of that happening. To an Af Am brother. While the white brothers drove caddies, hi end Buicks. I've had most hi end Euro sedans. Preowned. Never had anyone question my purchases! Never saw them @ end of month, when paymnt was due. ???
Just remember, when buying a car, don't buy one better than the elders.
@@charlesoliver2535 after prayer, personal need, preference, pocketbook,?? Lifestyle preference?? We do have freedom of choice!? ...
🤬.... They are so disgustingly evil, That's ALOT of BLING! 😳
💲💰⌚💎💍🧭💲
& they flaunt their entire!
Look at catholic church bro. What are you comparing
@@stoic_fathers The catholic's don't call people who aren't catholic "Worldly people," as the jw's do, yet they have no shame going to your door & calling you "Worldly" behind your back! Wolves in sheep's clothing spreading the Devils Doctrines.
@@bernadette4484 yeah devils doctrine?🤣 what do you call all the pagan worship of false gods in catholic church? That's devils doctrine. So are there flaws? Yeah. But you can't compare them to all the bulshit rest of the world is involved in
@@stoic_fathers They have them beat with pedos
Kinda surprised at how many cuff links there are, French cuffs aren't the easiest to find & they aren't at Walmart
Nor are those suits!
Guys, you need to upscale where you shop, damn. 🤣
@@freddyray6805 Are you in Denial?
@@freddyray6805 🤣go to 'GB' men warehouse.
Just go to the UK they are in every clothing store for men. Now if you want gems on your cufflinks that's a whole different ball game. I'm not going to be sycophantic and say that cufflinks are luxury because they are not. Rolex, Tag Heur's , Armani suits yes.
Makes me think of LORD OF THE RINGS. The 8 (7) witch kings, all men too. hahahah
The witch king is Rutherford?
Haha! GB are now officially the Witch Kings 😄
Masonic rings are not expensive, but those are definitely, 100% masonic rings.
So?...
Yep. Mason says-so…😂😈👹
@ghostnoterboomboom9119 you are JW? Well report you to your elders
I wonder if I wrote a letter to HQ and say that I am stumbled by all that jewelry, do you think they will stop wearing it? Nah, don't think so. 😂
I don't think so either, however, I do believe you would be disfellowshipped!
if their jewelry box falls over the floor, they will stumble in the pile for real lol
@@starbrite1121 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@bernadette4484exactly what I thought…causing divisions.
Yesssss! I love this!
Annointed flexing right there Gansta....
I think , I saw, a " d j rolex !"
Phil, not about this video, but here is something you might consider digging into that is happening and the people that are getting baptized don't grasp the implecation of: the #2 baptism question enters one into a legally binding contract with the Org ( since 1985 according to my wee amount of research)
It’s almost like the bling is part of the uniform.
I’ve always wondered if the jewelry that gets donated to Watchtower ends up with the high ranking men and their wives instead of being sold at market value for cash for the treasury. Since there is no transparency, we’ll never know.
Yes ... 3 of my aunt's estates were willed to the "society"
All the pretty rings. Did anyone notice that their fingers seem to be swelled like the rings are too small. Mr Arthritis is setting in on most of the GB.
Well done Boss
What am I missing? Is it just about their expensive jewelry and how much if it’s that they’re wearing? Does it have anything to do with Freemason?
not freemason just materialistic hypocrits
There is meaning to the pinky ring
The video was made for you to have a laugh.
Yeah I believe JW were infiltrated by masons just like catholic church years ago. Evil is everywhere but their teaching is in line with bible.
I watched a video by a man whose channel is about men's attire. He said a pinky ring on the right hand denotes power.
It's just peer pressure. I remember experiencing this as a teenager at high school. All the 'it' girls were wearing Bobby socks and I wanted to as well.
Bobby socks were bought at the 5 and dime store
Smurf girl exposes the freemasonry connection which goes right back to Charles Taze Russell.
She exposes their true identity.
This is so awesome!
it is likely a good deal of that jewelry came from donated estates. I saw a video somewhere suggesting there is quite a tresure trove of "bling" stored away. I'm good with men wearing jewelry.
You’re missing the point. These ‘males’ are meant to be the mouthpiece of god, spiritual food etc, instead they wear expensive jewellery they tell Jehovah’s witnesses NOT to have. It’s worldly, it’s a showy display, keep your eye simple.
Wearing 20 grands worth of gold and asking a single parent witness on a fixed income, for her money, MONTHLY.
Any and ALL have to give, regardless of income.
But at least they look good. Thank Jah, of course.🕊
These are masonic rings. Men high up in freemasons, wear the masonic rings on their pinkie fingers. Others wear them on the 3rd finger right hand. They do a lot of the masonic hand gestures aswell.
I'm actually surprised he's not wearing the usual gold cuff links I see so many GB members (and many CO's / DO's in times past) wear. I'll never forget the way our CO looked me up & down when I came to a meeting in my work clothes because I couldn't get off work in time to shower & dress up, and still see the opening talk. I am an HVAC technician (because the cult prevented me from going to college) and, as a result, have to work long days in the summer. It was all I could do to just be there. He looked at my boots, my uniform, and was hesitant to even shake my hand. Never worked a day in his life, yet there he stood in his $500 suit, silk tie, $100 shirt, nugget rings, and... Yes... Cuff links, all while I struggled to make a living, keep my job, and donate what scraps I could to the organization, apparently all to ensure he could dress like that. It was at that point that I started to question everything. It took 15 years, but thanks to the crooked actions of local elders, I finally got the courage to do my own outside research. 6 years later, I'm still very jaded, but free. ❤ Thanks to cuff links.
My hardcore beleiving mother once suggested I get myself a signet ring, because it's the thing "the brothers" do.
Great video I like ur style
I wear no jewelry at all! Own none except a broken watch! None!! And their hands look a lot nicer than mine!!!
These governing-Nobodies can't have enough.
&yr proud of that? Bet you wear lumberjack shirts, chkered pants, summer months!?
@@ghostnoterboomboom9119 No. I invest in healthy foods. Budget does not allow jewelry. Khaki pants, scrub tops, t shirts and a few items for dressier occasions. Very difficult to figure out a wardrobe that I like and can afford.
@@jokich6379 👏👏 "living in times, hard to deal with." Feel you. ...more field ministry, prayer, meeting attendace, studying? Jah will provide!
@@ghostnoterboomboom9119
Yep!
Some have made reference to 'Would Jesus wear a Rolex on his television show?' and watchtower Aug 15, 1994...
Ex JW Curious did a nice job on that.
Patek Philippe perpetual, platinum.
We had an elder in the congregation who was a realtor. He drove a Cadillac, always dressed nicely, and wore tons of expensive jewelry. Then he would stand up on the podium and preach about how we all needed to work enough to pay for basic necessities and devote the majority of our time to Jehovah’s preaching work. The irony!
Wow. That took a lot of tedious editing. Thank you, Phil.
Even if they were gifts or something they didn’t buy themselves, they’re flashy and an odd choice for people who are constantly telling their followers to not stumble others by their dress and grooming
Great video. Great music. Free masons.
I always wonder if the G|B & their helpers get first dibs of the donated jewellery from the sheeps estates willed to the org.
Watchtower is trying to make use of the"halo effect".
People tend to trust, believe etc those whom they consider successful - bling indicates wealth and status.
Heidi Klum would say Steve is too matchy matchy. Edit to add: Gerrit too. Thanks Phil! Love the music, and choice clips!
Agreed. No sense of style.
After luxury watches, jewelry, and signet rings... soon nail polish? Do they want to attract the WOKES?
Does Seth Hyatt have a lightsaber tie clip?
A pinky ring on the right hand denotes power. I saw a video by a YTer whose channel was about gentlemen's clothing and such.
Mark my words there is a hidden meaning behind this attire that only they fully know about and leaves everyone else to speculate. But one thing for sure it doesn’t look good.
Secret frat. Looks fair.
We know their taste for top shelf liquor and that Tony rides in a Caddy, it would be interesting to know what wheels the others roll behind.
masonic rings and Goldwatch on GB members: Lett,herd.sanderson,lösch,morris all in the
Club of Freemasons.🤑😇
Look at that Gold watch ,,, J. Chris had the same one,,,
Music is nice
Look at these Arch Bishop GOLD, GOLD, GOLD from the top to the bottom,,🥇🏅🥇
Gangsta!!!!
And a Star of David ring also a Masonic symbol
Flip rings...
I haven't seen them wear those since YT people busted them out on it, like smurfgirl have you?
@@SpiderLove70 theses guys are such hypocrites I don't put anything past them....
@@rubicktdo89 Yeah they are...
@@SpiderLove70
I noticed that too. They used to wear them on their pinkies. Older videos will show them.
@4:45 William Turner has the nicest pair of hands
They call me Jehovah 🔥
The way they're witnessing me flex 💯
they dont look underfed either like most pioneers used to in the 80s and 90s, i have pointed out to my mother about their fancy jewelry, she always says 'its maybe American culture' and then i ask her, why are they are all old mainly white guys (sam herd is a bit of colour but hes trying to be white himself) (interesting why never any asian or hispanic has been in the gov body?? hmm)
Seen a lot of Rolexs wore by them lol. Must be nice
You 100% sure?...All Seiko's.
👍👍👍👏👍👍👍

Don't forget those 24 karat Bibles 💁♂️🤷♀️
Shalom aleichem
Brother Lett. .. I like your bling bling. These snitches are just being petty ..
This just goes to show the splendors of God's blingdom... errr, kingdom.
Aaargh! This is so good - eventhough it makes me wanna cascade vomit. 🤮
Rolex submariner is millstone proof up to 330 feet . . . corrosion can occur at crush depth however .. . in which case its 'times up ! ' .
Hypocrisy is all over the JWS religion, elders driving around in Cadillacs wearing the most expensive suits, living in luxury homes is not uncommon, yet they will give public talks about the unrighteousness of pursuing material wealth.
These are con men with a smile and a suit, playing a game of power for themselves mostly .
Nah. Caddies, MB, etc. Some expensive (to you) clothing. Jealousy?...Some just know. You obviously do not.
You must be a GB helper boomboom
I was hoping to see Samuel Hurds $19,800 Rolex submariner date just watch......
They have no shame. IMO this is to drawn in the third world country followers. :(
They have no shame & their jw followers have no brains.
You know the old saying. Money talks BS walks.
Pimps wear rings on their pinky it signifies power !
Downright creepy and disturbing.
😂The fellowship of the ring seemed creepy. For reals.
Are these pinky rings?
I thought they were worn on your 5th or little finger.
All these dudes have it on the 4th finger.
So discreet lol pinky rings signify power and status. The good old boys in the club know the meaning and recognition behind their symbols.
It's more than about expensive jewelry.
That was a great vid.All the gov body members seem to have the same ring on same finger.I would to find out the significance of that?
Imimators, copy cats. Not natural dressers. Originate frm humble beginnings, unlike Tony M.
Onyx gold ring wow Judas had same one too,,,
no gold cufflinks , , , they aren't totally greedy .
Secret communication
Fingers are often assigned meaning, and the pinky finger used to be associated with Mercury, the Roman god of messages, translators, and interpreters. Wearing a pinky ring was often used by secret societies to communicate membership to a specific chapter.
Mercury is also the god of wealth, commerce, and good fortune. So, people would sometimes wear pinky rings as a talisman or luck symbol.
He got a rolly on his wrist
and different pinky ring.
Gouvernement body never miss with different bling bling.
Not confirmed. Pinky ring? So??? Mine has my initials. Stainless steel. So??
Wonder twin powers, activate!
How about those 500$ designer neckties......bet they didn't shop at the Goodwill Barn with all you can stuff in a paper bag for 1.00$!.
You don't know ties, @ $500. Bet you $500 they didn't shop @ tie mart, buy then by the bag!
Do they each have a ring with one of the stones that are in the breastplate of a high priest?
Are these masonic rings? Can you proof with exact copy?
Once upon a time , my dad wanted to have one ( ring) , I said Daddy please NO!!! It's disgusting for man.I never liked it.😆What about modesty ?I've never liked gold jewelery on anybody because I remembered that not everyone could afford it.(in JW world)
Puh-leeezzz!!?? Modesty?? Ludite thinking!
@@ghostnoterboomboom9119 it depends on the culture, the way you was raised and etc .
Wearing a ring, is disgusting?? In what culture is that? Not liking gold? Ok...Never liking rings? Ok....Modesty? In this context, has no bearing. A Christian "quality?" Jdub speak?
@@ghostnoterboomboom9119
You are a freak.
🤣🤣🤣Why do you think they are always asking for more money.
For "Kingdom" projects, relief efforts, CSA court losers...
I am sure the jewellery worn by the governing body must be contributions from people in the congregations. Take note this is just my opinion
It’s convention “con” yeah a time to dress up.
What you mean?
They strip down the pimp gear before they talk.
hahhahha they rich , send Robin HOOD there......:) Blessings
A " showy display".
Gotta have the Bling to go with their $600 custom tailored pin stripe suit...WT GB'S dress like Big shots Real Estate salesman !!!... Ain't that the Truth...😤
You know that as factual? Big shot Real estate salesman? Name 6?...no, not true.
Scoffers
I left many years ago and now looking back...ugh...I just feel sorry for the sorry folks that are brainwashed...my mom in brainwashed and back in as well and it sucks. My mom will die a witnesss and never see the panda paradise. Every time I say something bad about the witnesses my mom shuts me down like Thor with the heavy hammer and I just let her do her thing. It sucks but oh well. I can't wait for Ramabo to be finished to 2026 and tell her yeah the end is coming after 2026 plus years.. lol then some. Yeah.
Masonic convention, masonic convention, masonic convention !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
