He's not the only one though, I too think that accumulating funds is a bad 
way to go.

Sure raise funds for a specific project and have a small kitty for 
contingencies.  But if you want to start handling any significant amount of 
money or monetary transactions then you really, really, need a treasurer a 
few rules and do annual audits at the very least, in short have very 
transparent accountability.
