Now, he admitted he is well-to-do and no longer depends on the money of his church members for survival.

"If it was not for the church money, I would not have been able to invest in the real estate business. I used part of the money to develop the church, and I also realised that I cannot always depend on church members so I use part of that money to do something valuable for myself and my family."
