The Silver Marks - Jeske and Schroeder -
Are Bewitched and Anesthetized by Money


This Photoshop of the Jeske Nebula,
drawing the Dollar Galaxy into its orbit.
was eerily prophetic.
One non-reader sent me a message that Mark Jeske was making $250,000 a year from being on the pan-religious Thrivent Board of Directors - the one that funds Planned Parenthood.

I looked for the Thrivent 990s and found a different figure for 2012.


This line shows him making $139,583 for working 10 hours a week for Thrivent, plus another $31,578.

The extra money is explained in the table -


I was intrigued about the figure used in the email. It could be current. In 2011, Jeske labored 10 hours a week for only 57,333.



His total compensation more than tripled in one year, so another significant increase is not unlikely. However, the Federal 990 forms are only posted up through 2012.

Similarly, the head of Concordia Publishing House head made almost $300,000 and Paul McCain made almost $200,000 in 2012.
