Brianna K: Fridge Color Coded and Acting Like She’s Loaded | Part 5

[haterade]

I did some digging — https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/The- ... 7803_zpid/

So Base price of this home is $815k and the model they actually toured is listed for $1.2M.... You’ve got to be freaking kidding me. I just can’t see how these people could afford that house...unless somehow Adam makes a drastically bigger salary than I imagined. He’s home most of the time! And to think I thought LoveMeg’s $450k house was crazy

No wonder I couldn't find the model home they looked at...I was only searching up to 600k which I thought 600k was a reach. Her current home is worth 350k, I was thinking the new one would be 450k to 500k. I don't believe they will go thru with this purchase. Is it all for views? And then something happens and they back out. Who honestly even knows if they really did a down payment.

On the flip side, if they can afford it, woah. I'm shocked. Property taxes alone will be 2k a month. Doesn't include the mortgage.

The property taxes is what’s the craziest to me. I wouldn’t be surprised if they could pay off a million dollar home over 15-30 years, but property taxes are huge for homes like that, and those payments do not end.

On Myka’s cash crush channel (take with a grain of salt, obviously!!), she said that as a general rule, number of subscribers = annual income (including sponsorships) and if it’s less than that you’re probably being underpaid by sponsors. So theoretically if Bri has 300k subs, that’s $300k a year. But if she is be making that much now, I doubt she’s going to be making that much 20 years from now. So they may be able to pay off the house but those taxes will be harder to keep up with if they don’t make good investments.

That's not even remotely accurate. Myka would love people to think she makes 500K per year, but they clearly live above their means. They are paid by sponsors based on engagement. If you have 500K subscribers but only get 10K views per video and 1000 thumbs (up or down), that's only engaging 2% of your audience. If you have 40K subscribers but get 10K views and 1000 thumbs per video, you have significantly higher engagement at 25% and can charge companies as such.

I agree! Like I said, grain of salt lol (although I do think Stauffer Garage makes good $$ because many of his videos get over a million views, and the example she showed was his highest viewEd video with 17M views got $43k in ads alone, but different topic for a different thread )

The point I was (poorly) trying to make is that EVEN IF she’s making $300k, that type of money will not be rolling in forever, especially as her kids get older. So while she may be able to afford the house itself, taxes, utilities, etc will likely be more than she can afford in the long run. Heating a huge house like that in the winter and cooling it in the summer is $$$$!

I agree a lot of youtubers live well above their means and buy based on the assumption that the money they’re making now will be rolling in forever rather than looking realistically at what they may make 5-10 years from now (at which point even more lifestyle creep has set in).

So a gourmet kitchen to bake chicken nuggets and make waffles in the toaster?

[hannahps]

The new house is almost certainly smaller than their current house -- no basement and only two dining spaces rather than THREE (I didn't realize her current house has a formal dining room in addition to the kid birthday room and the table in the kitchen). Why pay so much for a house that's smaller and less interesting than your current house?

Also, might just be me but it seems strange to have four bathrooms in a house and every single one is inside a bedroom. No powder room off the living area?

[ladeeda]

It’s laughable that she is showing off blueprints like she is designing and building her new house. She’s not working with an architect. She is choosing from the few set options that the builder has designed. Choose from these four floor plans, these five exteriors. It’s like adding your toppings at Chipotle. Lame!

I have a feeling that them touring that million-dollar model home was all for show. They are probably buying a much cheaper builder home but put that in there to drum up interest in her mind numbingly boring, basic and repetitive videos.

I can’t comprehend why anyone watches her. It’s all buy, buy, buy, followed by a massive decluttering. Her conspicuous consumerism and waste is hardly inspiring, especially now. And so much for her carbon footprint! As long as it looks cute on IG, who cares about the damage it inflicts on the planet that her kids live on.

I also find it incredibly gross that she would be bragging about her expensive new house at a time when so many people are losing their jobs, struggling to pay bills and put food on their tables, etc. She is so tone deaf but then again, narcissists can not survive without constantly feeding their need for adulation.

it’s so different in the states with home ownership! what are property taxes?? in australia, you buy the home at purchase price and if you’re like most people, you get a mortgage, less any deposit/down payment made first. there are no ongoing property taxes though. we pay stamp duty, which is essentially a tax paid on the transfer of the property and calculated with reference to the purchase price. so you might end up paying maybe $30-$50k stamp duty (on an average priced home). but this is paid upfront and at purchase. there are no further ongoing taxes to pay. municipal rates and utilities plus gas and electric are the normal ongoing expenses you pay, but that’s the same anywhere.

i’m also shocked at how low the purchase prices in the US are? average homes where i am (melbourne, australia) cost around $800k-$1m?? if you got something for $350k, it’s either a shoebox apartment, or a very small basic home in a crappy faraway suburb. a house like what she’s in now, if it was in melbourne where i live, and even in just an average neighborhood, would be around $1.5m at least. at least. when i first started watching all these YT moms i was like whoa, they all have such expensive looking homes, because i was basing it on prices here.

so have they purchased an empty block of land and will build a spec home through the builder? i can’t think of anything more basic. even here in australia, that’s a fucking basic thing to do. those homes are all slapped together fast and cheap. they look ok but give them 5-10 years and you’ll start to see the quality of the workmanship. but brianna probably doesn’t care, by then she will be onto her next basic monstrosity.

her and adam are such basic geeks. they try to appear wealthy and cool but they’re just two geeks desperate to be noticed.

Are salaries higher in Australia or something? I make $40k a year...if I had to pay $800k for a house I would never ever own one

It's the same here in the UK - we pay stamp duty and a yearly tax to the council but that's it. I don't like how cookie-cutter that house is (or her current house) but I'd kill for a house that big! I'd rip out the insides and start over.

None of these YT Moms live in big metropolitan cities or even high-end suberbs of a big city, and none of them are on either coast so that drives the price down a lot. A house like that in a nice affulent suberb of LA? Forget about it, that would be in the millions for sure!

[BrittanyNikki]

I’m kind of suprised she is still drinking those collagen peptides now that she’s pregnant. Most of those usually have a warning that state avoid taking if you’re pregnant or think your might be pregnant. Especially something that supports weight loss and makes you feel full longer? I’m not a doctor but doesn’t seem worth the risk. Just eat food lol

Exchange rate?? It's difficult to make comparisons when someone's talking about prices between different countries without clarification. Luxe, were you talking in AUD or USD? Also, it's really hard to get into salaries as we probably all have different jobs in different environments etc...

For a non-american (me) there's a perception that houses in America are larger, but aren't comparable in price to other countries, as the US housing industry needs to accommodate average annual salaries. Otherwise like you said Snark, nobody except the elite would be buying houses.

Note I said perception. I'm not talking for others. It may be just as accurate as non-australians thinking there's kangaroos and koalas in every Australian's back garden!

thing one and two cannot look any more stupider sticking out their non existent bumps

Yup I agree. But food would add actual calories to their bodies which would make their nonexistent bumps disappear LOL. Her and Beaston witch have to be as thin as possible so the TINIEST smidge of bloat can be posted on the internet. Bri already stands weird for her photos, now she is so clearly hunching to stick out her belly.

I was happy for Bri and I still am, I know she has wanted this baby for a while. I’m not sure if she actually struggled to get pregnant, despite what she said. But she is more tolerable than Tiffani who is all about herself. Still curious if they are in some type of feud. It’s clear they aren't besties anymore. Anyway my point was going to be that Bri has become so obnoxious lately. All about the baby, all about her new house. Like others have said show some sensitivity. Not only are you an idiot for getting pregnant during a pandemic, you’re bragging about all the money you’re spending when most of the country is filing for unemployment. It started with the Range Rover. She is going to become so unrelatable because it’s clear her life is alllll about the money now.

Can't watch this materialistic moron anymore. I noticed she always says Its Adam that bought me the car and now the house. Ya right. See right through your materialistic bullshit. Remember less is better. Bigger house bigger bills. No thank you.

Another prime example of how out of touch with reality she is. Her mother day gift guide. AGAIN BRI. We are in a global pandemic. People have lost their jobs. No one is buying gummy bears that cost $9 or $90 freaking pillow cases. “Treat yourself” only works for you with your clearly unlimited credit card. Truthfully her gift guides are always ridiculous. Didn’t she post $50 chocolates in her Christmas gift guide?! Some people are just thankful to be home and healthy and spending Mother’s Day with their spouse and kids. Nope, Bri needs $1000s of stuff.

[Lifeisfun]

Sorry y’all, me again.

When is she moving Presley into her regular bed? Isn’t she plenty old enough? I don’t know how old she is but I remember her talking about a big girl bedroom and all the stuff she bought for it?

[judgeydrudgey]

I don’t understand the concept of her “brand” - shes constantly posting clean with me videos and “tap to tidy” posts on Instagram, yet her house is CONSTANTLY a disaster! Like, it just doesn’t add up? Her image is cleaning, decluttering, etc. but it gets SO BAD every couple days! Meaning she’s clearly not decluttering or actually organizing!

I know it’s hard when you have kids, they can be like a human tornado sometimes, but it’s crazy that someone so focused on cleaning/tidiness has such a disaster to clean up at all times! Are the kids joy held accountable to clean up their own messes? Surely they’re old enough to put away their own toys! She needs to take a note from Brittany Vasseur on how to make an organizational system for her house that actually works! Lol

I think they are definitely in a feud. Never comment on each other’s stuff. They went from besties all over the internet to not a peep. But I don’t think either one of them will share the story. Bri said something on her story about how she wouldn’t talk about past feuds or something along the lines

this shocked me too. i wouldn’t be taking anything like that pregnant.

@snarkaholic salaries and wages here i think are higher, at least the nominal $ amount. average salary here is about $65k-$75k. $40k here is definitely low. our dollar is a LOT weaker than yours though (i assume you’re in the states). but yeah, just based on the $ amount of the figure, ours appear higher.

[Jzam08]

I cant stand her cutesy voice she does now. Did she always do that? In today's video she mentioned she needed some quiet time and Adam was downstairs working with the kids. Being the working from home parent during quarantine right now, if my husband told me to watch the kids during my working time to film a YouTube video I would tell him he was nuts!

She is whining and looks so upset that she cant "do her nails" try juggling working full time, REAL homeschooling for 2 grade school kids PLUS housework I don't have time to think about my hair, nails, lashes etc maybe I'm just a Debbie downer but why spend all this money on clothes makeup etc when YOU AREN'T GOING ANYWHERE, I understand it their job or whatever but it's just so fake and unrelatable idk or maybe I'm just resentful because I still have to meet work deadlines and everything when I would rather be getting my house in order idk ugh
