Maddie Brown Brush isn’t holding back when it comes to her father’s financial choices. Sister Wives star recently shared on her podcast, The Authentic Society, that Kody Brown has always chased get-rich-quick schemes.
“So my dad always chose the get-rich-quick scheme, almost always.”
She also exposed just how poor their family was before the TLC reality show-a stark contrast to Kody and Robyn Brown’s lavish spending habits today.
Maddie Brown’s biggest revelations:
Kody always looked for easy money instead of stable work.
The Brown family struggled financially for years.
Kody’s spending habits didn’t improve, even when the family started making money.
According to Maddie Brown, her father had a good income at times but could never stretch it far enough to support his enormous family.
“I think my dad made decent money, but you have, like, 15 kids.”
This creates a worrying image, especially with claims from Kody’s other kids. They say he and Robyn live beyond their means.
Sister Wives: Kody Brown’s Long History of Failed Money Schemes
Maddie Brown’s claims aren’t exactly shocking to longtime Sister Wives fans. Kody has never been one to hold down a traditional 9-to-5 job. Instead, he has dabbled in various sales jobs, including:
Selling billboard space before marrying Robyn.
Working online sales and traveling for business deals.
Running a Cameo account for personal fan videos-until recently going “unavailable.”
Maddie’s observations match what many fans have suspected: Kody is always chasing a big payday but never seems to find lasting success.
At one point, he was even spotted selling guns at a trade show, which sparked backlash among fans.
Although Sister Wives made a lot of money, Gwendlyn Brown revealed that Kody and Robyn Brown still don’t live within their means.
“They spend way beyond their means at all.”
Even with TLC’s money coming in, their financial problems persist. This raises questions about where all that cash is going.
Was Sister Wives Just Another Business Move for Kody Brown?
Kody says he joined Sister Wives to teach people about polygamy. However, Maddie and other Brown family members think money played a big role too.
Before the show, Maddie says the family was struggling financially.
The reality TV paycheck was the most money they had ever made.
Kody and Robyn still failed to budget properly, keeping themselves in debt.
Many fans now think Kody viewed the show as a “get-rich-quick” scheme. He hoped it would bring him financial security and improve his public image.
Instead, the show has now exposed his questionable decisions—both financially and personally.
Sister Wives: What’s Next for Kody Brown’s Finances?
Now that Sister Wives has lost three of its main stars-Meri, Janelle, and Christine-many wonder if the show’s paychecks will start shrinking.
Janelle and Christine are doing well as independent businesswomen. But Kody and Robyn’s financial future is unclear.
Will Kody finally get a real job?
Or will he continue seeking quick cash instead of long-term stability?
