Bringing Up Bates stars Carlin Bates and Evan Stewart are being ripped for their “stupid” financial decisions. Fans can’t believe what they’ve chosen to spend their money on and are worried about their financial situation. What did Carlin and Evan do that has fans so unhappy? What are their followers worried about? Keep reading for all of the details.
How do Carlin Bates & Evan Stewart earn a living?
One way that Carlin and Evan make money is by working at the Bates Sisters Boutique. They run the boutique alongside Carlin’s brother, Zach, and his wife, Whitney. They also have several other employees. The shop is mostly online, though they do have a few in-person sales throughout the year. So far, it looks like they are very successful.
If you follow Carlin on social media, you may know that she also has an impressive following. With 380,000 followers, she has had the opportunity to partner with various companies and promote their products. When she does so, she earns a commission off the items sold or may receive a flat fee for the ad.
Most recently, she promoted a new iPhone game that’s similar to in-person slot machines. This really caught fans by surprise.
Along with her Instagram ads, Carlin Bates and Evan Stewart have a YouTube channel. Their videos are monetized, which means they make money based on views and ads. While they appear to be doing well for themselves, fans do have questions about how they are choosing to live their lives. Why?
Bringing Up Bates fans rip the couple’s ‘stupid’ financial decisions.
In a new Reddit thread, fans are discussing an interesting detail about Evan Stewart and Carlin Bates’ financial situation. They pointed out that Evan and Carlin recently purchased a Tesla. One Bringing Up Bates fan priced it all out with the specific model the couple bought. The fan wrote, “I was curious so I looked up the average monthly lease cost for a Tesla Model X Plaid, which is the same model car that Evan and Carlin recently purchased. If you put $7,500.00 down, the average monthly lease payment is $2,196.00.”
It’s unclear whether the couple leased the car, bought it outright, or are making payments. But fans are slamming them for spending so much money on a car. Some Reddit users think the couple should be more cautious with their finances, especially because there’s no telling how long they can keep making money on social media.
One fan said, “They’re so stupid esp since their main incomes is the boutique and YouTube. I really wonder how they’re affording their constant eating out, vacations, their house, Tesla and Carlin’s medical bills esp in this economy.”
Someone else pointed out, “They should take note from Kelton and Josie. Both probably earn way more combined with their businesses and they bought a used Ford! Very smart with their money.”
As mentioned, fans were surprised to see that Carlin promoted a slot machine game. However, many think it has to do with her and Evan needing to pay the loan on their Tesla. This could explain why they’re being less picky about their ads.
