Nemo the Mormon lays out several people/families who are LDS and profit by more temples and chapels being built. These same families notoriously are involved with the general authority level in the church. Pay to play in every since. The church announces new temples. Famous church families build them and make more money, which in turn drives the value of their family name up even more. This causes them higher clout in the church and the cycle continues forever. Disgusting.

    It seems to me that religion is the world’s oldest corporation. All 3 of the dominant western religions, Islam, Judaism, and Christianity, all sell a mythical product called salvation. They’ve done so for thousands of years. Mormonism and Scientology are no different.
