I don't think that Ralph's family was ever rich, judging by their crack shack with holes in the walls, but Nick Rekieta recently said that Ralph told him he made something like $20,000 a month during the height of his show. Might not be true, but I do believe that at some point Ralph was raking in a ton of cash, back when Jim was still a regular guest. I don't doubt that instead of saving the money to buy himself a nice house and put it into savings for the future, he blew it all on cocaine and booze. The money is gone and he must have spent it on something.
Chantal also claims to make $20,000 a month during the height of her channel and yet she also lives in a rented apartment with a roommate, she blows all of her money on food and tent sized clothing and useless trinkets and also... cocaine. It's just absolutely insane to me how bad lolcows are at managing their money. They spend everything that they make immediately instead of saving up for when their careers are inevitably going to crash, which is currently happening to Ralph. Their lack of impulse control and their desire to flaunt their wealth through stupid purchases is just baffling to me.
Ralph, your income will soon be laid bare when the child support saga starts and Mister Vickers will no doubt let us all know exactly how poor you really are. Maybe stop lying about things now to save yourself the embarrassment... or I guess brag while you still can.
