As Bob Michler said in his interview - "At the time, what I had planned for him and with him, and up to the middle of 1976 he was largely agreeing with, was to use a lot of the money that had come to him in the form of gifts from his followers, to set up some investments. This would enable him to become financially independent from the continued support of the devotees".Undoubtedly that plan was executed and for many years he has, with expert help, continued to prosper and support himself and his family as a private investor.
