I'm sorry, I'm still laughing that people in this thread are saying paying 10% of your income to an entity on the off chance you might need to collect a tiny percentage (over the course of your lifetime) back is a sound investment plan.
And now we're all laughing at you, because no one has argued that. Did you have to take comprehension tests in your English classes? I didn't know stupid was your schtick. I probably didn't notice because you've never stood out in any way, until now. Really, keep going, please.

The comment was more towards Rho than you. He tends to offer a good one liner that makes no sense and then act like anyone that disagrees is an idiot. It's your religion and you obviously hold value in that, though I am curious as to your point of view because you used to be involved in financial planning (I thought).
If you're going to try to insult me, at least have some balls and do it straight out. The implied insults are a little tame. :\

How could a thread about a great man's benevolence turn out so mean? Feel the love man.

Okay Element, I'll explain now so you won't be as disappointed in me. I was laughing because you posted your story, then Rando did his assessment of what you said. Rho then brought up the insurance thing, which would imply you're paying 10% to the church just so you can have something to fall back on. That devolved into the "you don't get it" discussion with Rando.
The amusement was that someone implied it was an insurance plan, which made me laugh because paying 10% into that kind of insurance plan would be quite honestly idiotic. It doesn't mean that I'm laughing at Mormons paying 10%, which I very well know they do because it goes to the good of their community. I think that's great, honestly.

Seems a lot of anger about the Mormons. I don't really mind them. They keep to themselves unless invited and only occasionally interfere with the rights of others. As far as the pictures of the temples they are nice, but not lavish. You want lavish go Catholic - Old World. I don't really care about the tithing either - it's a person's choice. Given what the church uses tithes for there is no legitimate way to argue it is "charitable" but again people can choose. Mitt has not done more than I have for the poor if you look at it as a balance sheet.

Incorrect inference on your part does not constitute implication on my part.
Of course.
