As always, the "rules" were for the rank-and-file, not for God's Special Anointed Prophet. He made up his own rules as he went along.

More egregious to me was the "little savers" scheme. I don't remember its exact name, but it surfaced after Daystar in an attempt to confiscate the savings of the saints throughout the Recovery.
Once the money gets taken from them, the investors are told to "consider it an offering."
