Retiree Builds Hydropower System That Generates 36 kWh of Electricity...

A retired Canadian engineer built a river-powered system that keeps producing electricity day and night, and the numbers are turning heads f

Marc Nering, a retired Canadian engineer, made a water powered energy generator that runs 24/7 - without a bank of batteries!

He installed his garage crafted water wheel on a fast running river & now, it generates up to 36 kilowatts per day!

That's enough to run Nering's entire household & to generate a goodly surplus - which he sells to the Grid.

This set-up works best & is designed for remote work camps & homes in rural areas - with a fast moving water channel nearby, of course...

So yesterday was a bittersweet day. After nearly 22 years with the department of corrections I have retired. What’s next? I honestly do not know. But eventually I’ll figure it out. On to new adventures!

In asking BJU Alumni to give money to save Bob Jones University, a recent retiree stated:

For a perspective, every 50 students makes about 1 million in revenue. In the history of the school, we have graduated about 103,000 students. I don't know how many have graduated in the last ten years or so, but it is probably north of 20K.

Wait. Every 50 students makes about 1 million in revenue? You mean for the school, I'm presuming. Right? Have you looked at any data? I can show it all to you.

In the Fiscal Year Ending in May 2022, as reported to the DoE, BJU said they had 2,265 undergraduates. Their total revenue was $84,371,195. Their total expenses were  $83,557,754.

But let's keep going.

They are getting only 35% of their revenue from tuition. And they are discounting tuition at a rate of 71%. That's from their own data. So students aren't giving the school revenue. They are costing the school.

I'll show you all the numbers:

Look at the net tuition. Look how it's growing worse and worse. They were out $18.7 million in FYE May 2022 because they couldn't pay students to come.

And the last part you stated? No no no no....

In the last 10 years since 2013, BJU graduated 5447 undergraduates. I'm saying it that way because it's possible that some of those did go on to complete a graduate degree. But you can't count them twice! That would be illogical. So to keep things even, the undergrads are the way to go.

In the last 20 years since 2003, BJU graduated 11,935 undergraduates.

This retiree is inflating the numbers be a factor of 4!

Is it possible that part of the reason BJU is having so much financial trouble is the rank-and-file constituency can't math?
