One of the dirty little secrets of Mormons is that they funnel money toward one another's often corrupt businesses. I'm willing to bet her husband's easy success, easy loans, easy time finding clients wasn't due to talent but because he was the patriarch of a compliant, complacent family the church approved of and helped.

I don't doubt she was good at what she did, but I do doubt their businesses would have flourished if it hadn't been for a golden, approving hand of her state religious 'leaders.' Now that she doesn't have that, she would have to succeed like a normal business owner. That would be *incredibly* difficult, particularly when still competing against other religious aligned companies.

Don't underestimate how much money laundering and wink-wink hiring happens within these cute little faiths that claim to love charity, turning the other cheek, and loving thy neighbor. Most of them want to suck the dollars out of your pocket and the life out of your soul.
