As stressed as Bonnie may be about money, she should at least be in a far better financial position than E&J are. All things compared, they have fairly even income since their channels have had comparable success and the the side projects/ expenses were assumedly split evenly.
Sure E&J had success earlier, but for the last year Bonnie’s channel has been doing better than their has, and her lifestyle is far less “upgraded.” I understand her not wanting to give up the excess spending and having to go back to budgeting more again, but that’s reality. They knew the risks were the for YT to end one day, and they are the ones that chose for Joel to play assistant instead of starting up his own business. Thankfully they can still learn from the mistakes others have made, and can sell the property off (because it sounds like Ellie is going to want to sell her half and I doubt they have the money to just pay for it) and buy a car wash or laundromat to run. They have plenty of options, but just don’t want to lose the easy money they’ve had and return to “work.”

Although Bonnie now has the same amount of views as Ellie had years ago, I think that early YTbers were making more money per views than the current ones. Now the supply of ads is overcrowded (the vloggers) while the demand (the companies looking to display their ads) are presented with a lot of opportunities where to display their ads, within YT and other places.
I think what matters the most is the engagement people have with the displayed ads and I think other apps/websites are doing a better job.
Also, on the 8Passengers thread someone posted a screenshot of one of Ruby's insta stories where she asked people on their opinion for a logo.
That logo looked like a children clothing company. And it makes more sense, seeing as their audience for all the channels tends to skew children. The children might not be the ones having access to cash but they can sure annoy their parents enough to buy it for them... less than 7 months until Christmas. And she is not lacking models with Chad and Shari having more followers on insta than Bonnie, and they aren't even trying that hard!
Is this some sorts of rivalry in the Griffiths family, is Ruby trying to "one-up" her sisters?
