A few years ago I met person who works for Deseret Mutual, a company owned by the Church, which administers pension funds to retired Church employees. I was able to get on the topic of GAs and retired benefits and this employee said they get around $100K a year, which includes medical benefits. Apparently, this pension is offered to those who need it, but I wonder if all emeritus GAs would get it? In contrast, many TBMs pay tithing and do not fund their retirement savings well or in many cases not all. It seems morally wrong for the Church to take from those who have so little and give to those (GAs) who likely have so much already. Where's the justice in that?
The average retirees income is $18K a year.
