When I saw that a simple Ukrainian guy with no education who works as a football coach got a house and not a 2 room apartment in Khrushevka, I got very interested in how this financial miracle came to be. A teacher's salary is 98 Euros in Ukraine. Unless Andrii just dumped his whole monthly salary in bitcoins in year 2010, it is unlikely he bought a cottage that cost from 120,000 to 600,000 euros.
For the answers, I decided to check what his sect is all about. The sect has various businesses: UCSA, UCSA kids, a hostel and rentals for social events and sport events and even paintball. They are located in the suburbs of Kiev, village Tarasovka. You all know UCSA as a football school, there is also UCSA kids which is an English school for children. No worries, professional teachers are teaching there and people like Ellissa would not be allowed to teach there. The children that go there will be provided with the best education one can get in Ukraine.
So I decided to look up Andrii's friends and people who bring their children to UCSA kids. The majority seem to be from Tarasovka, the woman whose birthday Ellissa attended geotags in Green Hills. (You can Google Green Hills, Kiev to see what I mean by luxury.) Green Hills is a luxury gated community where a house might cost up to 600,000 Euro. Other people also all seem to have nice cottages around that area. They don't seem to live in Green Hills but a good cottage in Tarasovka costs from 130,000$. Based on their instagrams, they all have modern, large houses with fireplaces, garden landscaping, multiple floors, even indoor swimming pools etc. This is not common in Ukraine.
So the hostel business can accommodate 48 people, for an additional change, the food can be added and they also can rent an grill place for an addition charge.
There are also various spaces for rent like a conference room, the soccer field etc. So basically, you can book this place all inclusive for your event. For example, your company wants to take all the employees to play paintball during the weekend, that's the place.
How much it costs to get your kids to go to the UCSA kids is not openly shared. This is a bit sketchy for a ministry, isn't it? Well, it's not a ministry, it's a business. And it looks like it's not the cheapest place as rich people simply would not put their children into some charity school. The prices for the UCSA football are also unknown.
And now let's remember all those posts on Facebook where Android and his friend (the wife of the owner) were seemingly trying to grift 100,000$ to build the football field. He mentioned that a local investor donated 40,000. Considering what kind of people live in Green Hills, it actually sounds like peanuts. So Android and his friend (who also has an amazing house) seemingly collected donations to expand their for-profit business. They seem to target the upper middle class and elite as that's a common strategy for the sects to increase their influence in a country. You won't become a state religion by preaching to orphans, you need to find kids who will govern the country one day.
I assume Andrei gets generous donations and he must be in a leadership position of this sect to collect the profit from the businesses. The owner of UCSA is the husband of the friend who posted pictures of the engagement. The description of how UCSA was built doesn't mention any donations or Jesus. Just the guy loved football, the guy built the school.
Of course, everything written above is my subjective opinion. Is there anyone here from Kyiv? Maybe you could give your insights about Tarasovka and Green Hills.
