Sister Wives star, Kody Brown’s shocking net worth for 2024 has been revealed. Check out what the patriarch has to his name.
Polygamy Can Be Expensive
Undeniably, many Sister Wives fans have questioned through the years how Kody Brown brings in enough money to support his large family. While Kody isn’t the only parent, he is the only one who has 18 children of his own to directly provide for. Meri, Christine, Janelle, and Robyn Brown have all played a part in the family finances. But over the years, the Browns have experienced financial strain trying to feed 23 people and raise so many kids at once. For instance, in 2005, Kody and Meri filed for bankruptcy. Then, Christine went bankrupt in 2010. While they began their reality TV journey living in one big home, most of the years they supported individual homes for each wife and her kids. But with the divorces, dividing of assets, and purchasing a new home, where does Kody stand financially?
Kody Brown’s Shocking 2024 Net Worth Revealed
Shockingly, the Sister Wives patriarch, Kody Brown’s 2024 net worth is an astounding $800,000, according to Celebrity Net Worth. Undoubtedly, this will come into play when courts reveal the terms for custody for his and Christine Brown Woolley’s daughter, Truely Brown. Throughout the Sister Wives series, Kody was never been crystal clear about what he did for a living. However, at one point he mentioned being involved with some sort of “online ad sales” work. Additionally, E! News has previously reported that Kody was the president of Das Hundhaus Firearms and Accessories. Seemingly, those are occupations of the past. Now, his main focus is to build the family’s brand.
Is TLC Paying Kody Brown And His Family Big Bucks?
While exact numbers haven’t been released, producer Terence Michael estimates reality TV families earn about 10 percent of a show’s budget per episode. Likewise, TLC reportedly spends anywhere between $250,000 and $400,000 per episode on each show. Using those figures to estimate, the Browns would take in $25,000 to $40,000 as their cut. With nineteen seasons under their belt, the Browns most likely have made themselves more than $4 million. Even so, they have such a large family, that money goes fast.
Furthermore, Kody also has a side gig as well as all of his former wives. However, while they have multiple streams of income, Meri, Janelle, and Christine Brown won’t be paying the bills anymore. However, Kody and Robyn continue to upgrade and spend like there is an endless supply of funds. Although the couple’s Flagstaff mansion was taken off the market, now they are said to have invested in an upgraded mansion.
With Big Money Comes Big Responsibility
Seemingly, Robyn and Kody Brown have the taste for “finer” things and often store up their riches in “assets,” but that isn’t the only factor pulling on the purse strings. Although there is a substantial amount of money in his name, the family has gone through trying times. Not only were there previous bankruptcies in the family, but Robyn Brown’s son, Dayton Brown, was in a bad ATV accident in 2014. After the incident, the family’s debt skyrocketed. Sadly, unable to pay the hospital bills, the family reportedly had a lien on their home until the debt was taken care of a year later.
Likewise, fans saw Christine plead for fans to purchase her LuLaRoe clothing to help pay for her daughter Ysabel’s $50,000 scoliosis surgery in June 2020. Furthermore, the kids are going up and attending college and some are even having phenomenal weddings. All in all, good and bad expenses have occurred, but the money doesn’t stick around long.
