That's a lot of land! They don't seem to be hurting for money at all. Why Flagstaff, though? Why the leap from returning to Utah to heading to Flagstaff?

I'm team jenelle. I find her to be very articulate and sensible. You can tell she is just smart- and not to be superficial- she is honestly the prettiest. I think the others are likeable to some degree, but Jenelle takes the cake here.

PP of that post here, agreed! If I had to choose one of them to be my mom, it would hands down be here. She's smart, has always had a real job, very sensible, etc - they always call her "pragmatic" which I think is their nice way of saying smarter than the rest of them lol

+1 Love Jenelle. I wish she would escape this crazy family and ridiculous lifestyle. She deserves so much more.

Imagine how much they are selling out of pocket for braces alone? Ugh. I think the estimate that they're making about a half million dollars a year is probably accurate just off the show alone. But that is not that much money with that many people in your household.

This is also a snarky thing to say, but their daughters Mykelti and Aspen are marrying or have married guys that look like thumbs.

At first, Kody was talking about how much he missed Utah and wanted to move back to Utah....So, why are they now looking at moving to Flagstaff, Arizona?

Also, part of the reason to move was to capitalize on the Vegas real estate market by selling their Vegas homes now...but now they are contemplating moving to smaller homes that cost more money, without knowing much about Flagstaff. Doesn't seem to make financial sense. -- is it just to create a new storylune?

Vegas real estate was the first to crash and burn in the 2008 crash and never really recovered. I suspect that's how he got 3 or 4 homes at once. With them dipping even more, he's probably underwater. Its either get out now and move to Flagstaff or stay and be unable to sell or be foreclosed on.

Las Vegas Faces Housing Slump After Comeback From Recession

https://knpr.org/knpr/2018-12/las-vegas-faces-housing-slump-after-comeback-recession

Las Vegas Residential Sales Dip 11.6 Percent Annually in November

I suspect they make enough from the show not to to seriously have to worry about being foreclosed on,...

With 4 houses, 4 wives, and 18 kids? Not a chance.

T.L.C. isn't exactly stingy but they don't pay top network rates either. $30,000 an episode (for the entire family) with a 20 episode season is a yearly income of roughly $600,000. There are also network rules that the kids who appear in these shows must be compensated out of the salary separately so all of that $30K isn't even for the 5 adults.

Also keep in mind that none of their 'regular' jobs seem to be anything but MLM or contracter positions. Kody does ad sales? Robyn sells jewelry. Christine does real estate. Meri has the BnB and some MLM project.

That's all well-and-good but their medical insurance rates for 23 people must be astronomical. Remember in 2015 when Robyn's son almost died? His hospital bills ended up in a lien on her house.

If they were flush (and they've been doing the show since 2010) that never would have happened.
