Meier has never made anything from the contacts, all sales of books relating to writings given to Meier by the Plejaran go directly to FIGU which is a jointly owned collective of core group members. FIGU own the center where Billy lives along with some of the core group members who work there full time. Other members stay there occasionally when visiting to work or for meetings. It's actually a quite small house by Swiss standards with a meditation building nearby but it is set in beautiful surroundings which are maintained by FIGU and also visitors who come to help out. All other core group members also have full time jobs of their own and families to support etc.
You can chose to financially support FIGU by becoming a passive member. You Donate 7% of one months salary yearly and attend a meeting once a year at the center.so if you make 2000 a month you pay 140 euro once a year. It's a lot less than a Gym membership and more worthwhile in my opinion.

All money from sales or membership goes towards the publishing of books and translations and upkeep of the center. The latest book to be translated was the Kelch Der Warheit and it took 4 years to do properly as it's a big book and translating from German to English with the accuracy required is extremely difficult. (There are many words in German with no English counterparts) This had to be done professionally and paid for by FIGU, it's very expensive and time consuming to do.
All records of finances are given to members every year at a meeting so everyone can see exactly what all monies have been spent on.

The only money Meier makes personally is from books he has written by himself without help from the Plejaran, he has written a number of books on his own about a number of subjects.
Should he not get paid for work he has done himself like the rest of us?

Besides being published in books that you can purchase the writings given to Meier are usually released to the public free of charge as they are officially translated. The Kelch Der Warheit was released on PDF as soon as it was translated. There are tons of translated contact notes freely available on various websites.
They are not in it for the money but they have to survive financially like everyone else and Switzerland is a very expensive country to live in.
I suppose people think that FIGU should pay for everything out of their own pockets and give away everything for free. When is the last time you printed up a couple of thousand books for free?
