Following the Duggars’ progress! Since making their TLC debut in 2008, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar have established themselves as household celebrities through a variety of reality series and some very significant commercial ventures. They currently have 19 children and counting. It comes as no surprise that the entire family has a respectable net worth given all of their accomplishments.
According to Celebrity Net Worth, the Duggar family is worth a total of $3.5 million. The family has made a tonne of money over the years thanks to their earnings from reality TV, books, real estate investments, and other endeavours. In fact, according to a 2009 story from E! News, the family’s show earned between $25,000 and $40,000 every episode.
Fans are aware that the Duggars’ go-to financial advice is “Buy secondhand, save the difference.” The patriarch and matriarch of the family, however, have actually been open about their financial situation. In 2017, Jim Bob and Michelle spoke with Today about how they manage to support so many children while remaining, as they liked to say, debt-free.
“How do [other] individuals pay debt interest on top of getting by?” Jim Bob enquired. Many people don’t want to do what we’ve done, I know. Keeping up with the Joneses is not what it is. We’ve never purchased a new car; we’ve always driven older ones.
When it comes to money, he revealed that Michelle frequently shops at yard sales for clothing. At the time, the TLC personality claimed, “We probably spend less on clothing than what a family of four would spend.” We spend a lot of money on food – $3,000 per month on food, diapers, and other necessities.
According to Michelle, the pair attended a financial independence programme when they were younger, where they learned the importance of getting out of debt and maintaining it.
The Duggar children established their own families and jobs as they grew older. Some of Jim Bob and Michelle’s 19 children, like Josie, Jordyn, and Jennifer, are still young and live at home, but others have married and established their own financial independence. Along with their siblings, Jill, John-David, and Jessa all have enormous net worths that stand alone and are unrelated to the sum of the family’s assets.
