One day, Audrey Roloff might learn an important lesson:
You really don’t need to share perabout your life on the Internet.
Until then, however, the former Little People, Big World star will have to hope to be dragged online.
Roloff has faced criticism in the past for writing nonsense on social media about parents and for thinking he knows more about motherhood than anyone else on the planet.
But now?
Critics of Audrey have turned their attention to money.
Earlier this week, the author and podcast host shared a video of a fireplace in a relatively new home.
“The best evening sounds. The kids’ dinner table convos and the crackling fire,” she captioned the post.
In a second fireplace recording, Audrey is seen bragging about this aspect of her home, adding: “Basically every night from October – May.”
Audrey, of course, shares three children with her husband, Jeremy – and the couple stepped into some scalding hot water a short time ago when they brought up the topic of finances with their Instagram followers.
Audrey, for example, said that her “father is a financial advisor” who helped out a bit, while “Jeremy’s best friend is the inventor of the Debt-Free Journal” and “he also helps us a lot with our finances.
“So I would say there are two guys close to us in the arsenal who have helped us a lot.”
Jeremy then asked the fans of the “camp” he found… if they were “living life” without knowing much about saving money or if they wanted to move on to the next step of “wealth building”.
Most of these fans, of course, don’t have it wealth for build.
Most individuals also do not have a financial advisor.
In response to these comments, many users jumped all over Audrey and Jeremy, slamming them as “broken” and/or “out of touch.”
The thing is, Audrey admitted in the past that her and Jeremy’s business ventures weren’t always successful.
“Together, we have designed and published 5 books to help support and equip families to be more intentional about how to live/value life,” Audrey previously wrote on Instagram.
“From working online, to working with our hands fixing up our mountain Airbnb cabin, and moving dirt on the farm to prepare for what’s to come here…we’re always working together.”
This much certainly seems true.
Jeremy and Audrey left Little People, Big World in the summer of 2018 and began writing several books, while also hosting a podcast and then moved to a farm that required a lot of work.
“Some of our businesses have made zero money, some have been very profitable, and others have been expensive. Along the way, we have stopped/stopped many things to start or give more attention to others,” continued Roloff.
“And it becomes more challenging as the family grows…
“But I think we will choose this way of working and all the unknowns and uncertainties that it brings.”
