Steps to Avoiding Responsibility - Part 5

[lavenderlove]

QOTD: Will they make it FIVE baby clickbait titles in a row? When she was obviously never pregnant?? Are they going to do this every time she gets her period??

Here are some ideas to help Corbin title more totally GREAT clickbait vlogs (LOL):

- Dear God, it's me Kelsey...is this every 28-day bleeding normal?
- Back in the sack for a second pregnancy, stat!
- Flu or pregnant...or is it my husband's personality that's making me vomit?
- Tutorial: How to get pregnant while living with your MIL
- Tips: How to support a family of 4 on $12,000 a year!!!
- Do we really need health insurance? Second baby born in bathtub!
- Finding a new house with pregnancy-positive energy vibes (and near Trader Joe's)!!
- June says BROTHER! Confirmed: Second pregnancy will be a boy!!
- Date night in my parent's RV to recreate June's conception! *magical* *emotional*
- Husband does pregnancy test with wife's urine from the TOILET! [Oh, wait....]

Oh my gosh! Thank you for the laugh! That was brilliant! That's so thoughtful of you to help Corbin with the clickbait titles. That's gutta be a really hard job for him to do EVERY DAY! How does he do it?

"The question about how easily i get pregnant has haunted me bc i have no idea... Corbin and I have never tried to get pregnant..."

This is a HUGE ASS LIE!!! They were trying when they got pregnant with June! They admitted they started trying while on the van trip (she tries to say today that they werent..) bc they didn't know how long it would take. They were surprised it happened so soon. They are fucking idiots and it's unbelievable the things they try and pull over on viewers who have been watching since the van trip!

You’re absolutely right. I think in Kelsey’s mind, “trying” entails things like tracking ovulation and timing intercourse. To me (and I think to most people), “trying” just means you aren’t preventing a pregnancy with any form of birth control. Which is exactly what they say was the situation when they had their first. They claimed they stopped “preventing” and that’s when they conceived, which is usually how things work? I do suspect that whatever they were doing to “actively prevent” for those 4+ years was unreliable at best, and that might explain Kelsey’s anxiety. But I don’t think in any way it justifies the infertility narrative or clickbait.


She’s not willing to be honest and say that they weren’t using a reliable form of birth control for all those years, and that’s why she’s so worried that it took 4+ years. Their family watches their channel and that predates their marriage. I don’t think she wants to admit that at 21 they were playing Russian Roulette. Even though they make a lot of irresponsible decisions, they seem hyper aware of covering their tracks. For two careless bozos, they desperately want to come across as responsible. Like lying about their income and their housing situation. They do a horrible job of it, but they’re still super defensive and somewhat aware of how they come across, at least enough to lie about their situation.

I had to laugh in the newest video when

1. Kelsey says it is surprisingly difficult to buy a home of self employed. No it isn't not if you have the money. When you're a half assed sinking YouTube channel sure. But you think Pewdiepie has issues buying homes ? No.

2. When Corbin tells the man they have nothing planned for today. Of course you don't you're useless and lazy. Bare minimum effort put into all aspects of life

3. Kelsey cried for days over her dream home being lost but no tears over the loss of her "baby" she "lost" sure.

I wonder if it's the same house they showed in the vlog? That house went FASSSSSST—so all of this would have been pre-recorded like two weeks ago.

They really need to be prepared to move on houses they like the same day they are listed in that type of market. That can be dangerous for them considering they seem so naive about buying a home. Corbin said they needed the "appraisal" done, but I'm thinking he meant the home inspection. From my experience, buyers usually don't set up the appraisal and that's done later to secure the loan.

He is right that there are lots of buyers out there with cash offers, so they might have to spend up to a year looking. That's what happened to me here in Florida. If they still think they are moving in by March, they are dreaming! Just like with getting pregnant, they really need to give up on a set timeline with buying a house.

Kelsey was probably crying all day because she's tired of dealing with cranky Corby at her mom's house.

I haven’t watched the video but even home inspections aren’t done until your offer is accepted by the seller. Even then, they give you like 5+ days to do it.

Such a lie... I have a current client.. single mother, self employed and she was preapproved for a $125,000 loan in seconds. Which is way more than she even intends on even spending (the market is SUPER cheap where i live). This woman cleans houses for a living (and has a degree in graphic design that she wants to finally start using)... get off your ass and bring in some steady income and pay off some debt and you won't have a problem.

Yes, but he was talking about what they wanted in the counteroffer. Some buyers will waive the inspection/inspection period to appeal to the seller. I wouldn't recommend that.

[HashtagBlessed]

When Kelsey said they tried before to get approved and it didn’t work out, I’m willing to bet Corbin’s parents co-signed the loan this time. Their numbers have overall followed a downward trajectory, so nothing has really improved about their financial situation since they left California and stopped hanging out with the Lannings, but now suddenly they’re approved for more than she ever thought possible. That’s probably a horrible situation. Their income isn’t stable, and they can’t even stick it out for a one-year lease. What’s going to happen when they can’t make their mortgage payments? His parents will be on the hook if they co-sign. Especially problematic that in an emotional and highly-charged counter offer/bidding war situation they were willing to go to a number that they knew they weren’t really comfortable with. Doesn’t bode well for their ability to make a sound financial decision and get a monthly payment they are comfortable paying.

And wasn’t it weird that he didn’t put the “real estate agent” on speaker? Kelsey was sitting right there only able to listen to one side of the conversation. Wouldn’t that be a conversation a husband and wife would have together with their agent if you’re in the same room? The lack of speakerphone and the lack of any real footage of house hunting makes me wonder if this is all made-up.

[Playsinrain]

This whole emotionally letter and video they have made for the agent to present to the seller with their offer is absolutely ridiculous and i find it hilarious. No seller gives a shit about a letter begging you to accept their offer. Especially if you are offering lower than list and others have offered at or above. It just really proves to me what kind of people they are, the look desperate and foolish. What self respecting adult makes a letter and video to literally BEG someone to consider their offer? Make it pretty damn clear they are offering below list and probably trying to buy out of their price range so they have to beg. Sellers look at all aspects of an offer and i promise that seller will take another offer over theirs in a heartbeat, especially if they have parents cosigning with them on the loan bc that just screams we cant afford this on our own and are more likely to default on this loan. Rule number one in house hunting is DO NOT FALL IN LOVE WITH A HOUSE, especially one that is CLEARLY out of your price range and you are resorting to begging to get your offer approved. This sale will never happen, mark my words. If it does, then the seller is clearly in a desperate situation and has been forced to take something below asking price.

[Playsinrain]

"Normal people don't just pay cash for a home, i know we cant.." but but Corbin... you just said last week in the comments that you made tons of money and are so well off financially!!

[Playsinrain]

Sorry for all the posts, but i just made it to the end of the vlog and i KNEW this offer wasn't going through. Especially when they said a multiple counter offer. Thier little woe as me pity party letter and video didn't do shit... i'm cracking the hell up!!!

OMG. Do they really think that that's how it works? You offer below list and write a letter and submit a video and the owner says "Oh, you're good people! We're going to ignore these other, better offers, and sell our house to you!" They're f*cking delusional.
I sold my house in Washington, and you can bet I wouldn't have taken less than list when there were other offers. And I had co-signers when I moved into the rental I'm in now, because I was moving from a bad situation. But renting is different.

I do want to clarify that it's not ALWAYS a bad sign to have cosigners on a loan and it's not going to be the thing that breaks a deal most times, BUT when you have a multiple offer situation, sellers will look at that and take it in to consideration. Also, some bank owned properties will not accept offers period from buyers with cosigners, owner occupants only. A

[HashtagBlessed]

Oh yeah, there are situations where you have a co-signer so you can benefit from their credit history and qualify for a better interest rate, and then there are situations where you need a co-signer's income and work history to qualify, and that can be dicey.

[lavenderlove]

Kelsey: it felt like a loss!

You mean like a miscarriage, kelsey? Sorry, couldn't help myself.

These children have obviously never had to experience anything actually hard in their lives yet, if a seller didn't pick their one and first offer. Or she acts like getting her period is the same thing as a miscarriage. Boo freakin hoo.

Wait, did I miss the part they said they made the owners a video? If so could you fucking imagine ! Corbin and his dramatic voice overs with Kelsey... talking about how they're a family of journalist and nomads wanting to plant their roots so he can finish planting his seed. And they recently have suffered a loss of a baby and this would make his wife dream come true.

*DEAD* from them making a video and writing a letter. These two are so delusional, self-righteous and narcissistic and I can't wait until they're back to working normal jobs (especially Corbin). Kelsey deserved that dose of reality for comparing losing a house to a "loss"; we all know what she meant by that.

I know there are several loss moms on this forum and it makes me so mad when You Tubers exploit infertility; some of the posts I've read here have made me cry. To those of you who have had a real loss (not a real estate "loss"); I'm sending a virtual hug your way.

That is what angers me to the point of inability to watch someone is when they exploit the infertility/ pregnancy loss aspect of things. Especially when they have never actually experienced any of that. I lost a baby before I has my daughter. That was devastating enough. Then to add on two years of trying and trying and never ever getting a baby. At one point i told my husband i couldn't do it anymore and i was attempting to come to terms that it wasn't meant to be. I am not one to wish that pain on anyone. But these two, who have used it to gain views and attempt to fake emotions you would experience during these times for s camera... I almost do. There really are no words to describe losing a pregnancy. I sure as hell would never have been able to pick up a camera and film. I was inconsolable. For months after I would randomly burst into tears. Our due date was miserable. I mean these are things that these assholes are alluding to for money. They are scum.
