You mean to tell us that when making $480,000 a year, you can only bring yourself to donate $4,800 to Fast Offering? Cheapskate!

Seriously,
I believe only you know the budget of your family. All that is asked tech. from the first presidency is what you would spend on food for two meals. However, the more generous you are with your fast offering and tithing offering, the more blessings you will receive.
