Are you stingy when it comes to your money, or do you give it away generously? For most people, when it comes to tithing, they’re more on the stingy side of things. At least that’s where today’s guest, Bob Lotich was back in the day. Fortunately, though, with the help of his wife, Bob moved from stingy to generous giver, and by age 31, was giving 31% of his income away. I know what you’re thinking – 31%?! Yes, 31%.
