Barb knows flat out that Chris isn't going to need any life insurance, let alone pass anything onto anyone after he goes.

Here and now, it's 100% Barb hedonism. She is aware what her life ended up as, and the Bob train derailed, but she'll ride the Chris trolley to her hoard in the sky.

I understand why.
It's her fault and she made this bed, but imagine if your son grew up to be a transgender internet laughing stock.
Especially the awful kinda person Barb is, it's understandable she'd waste her own son's money on herself.

I saw this title and thought "she did that years ago" ... nope, she's done it again! She did it the first time back during the 'Catherine' saga to pay for the insurance on the Ford Focus and I think, also, to pay for the storage unit after the insurance people stopped paying their freight after the fire. (It's in a text somewhere, sorry I'm too stupid to find it). Barb is just running out the clock now.

Overtly aware of the biohazard of the shirt. Still wore it on camera anyway.

Anyone whose parents will drop $25,000 on memorabilia for them is probably an authorised user on their parents account and doesn't need their parent to "arrange" anything. One of the reasons bids over $15,000 have to be linked to a credit card is to ensure that the bidder is over 18.

I'm inclined to believe it is a legitimate sale since the user has a 700+ rating on eBay. Now I'm wondering if this person is trying to troll their parent if their mom is actually paying for the shirt. Jfc

Can't Barb just cancel it? That way she has maximum money?

She can surrender the policy but if she's borrowed against it in the past then the interest on whatever she's borrowed will be deducted from the surrender value. There may also be tax implications if she surrenders it.

We'll know soon enough. If it's not paid for within 48 hours Chris can open an unpaid item case with ebay. If the buyer's stalling Chris at the 48 hour mark, then I doubt the funds will be forthcoming. There's no rational reason to not complete the sale within that time if they have the funds unless Chris tries to change the terms post-sale.

Normally I would refuse to believe such a ridiculous sale- and I'm certainly skeptical- but I couldn't believe that the Totem went so fast and was evidently legit.

Honestly this situation is going to lead to amusement either way. I don't see Chris and Barb being the kind of responsible adults that do what is boring- paying off bills, debts, and putting some in a rainy day fund.

I don't see why Barb borrowed from life insurance. She is 75 years old, couldn't she have sold her car and junked whatever other junk cars they have for quick cash? The only car they need is Chris's since they live together.

You're thinking rationally. You probably wouldn't be filling every room in the house up with worthless crap until a fire starts either, but there they are.

Their cars would probably be worth a case of beer. ;)

(interestingly enough that's how much my sister paid for hers and I don't care if it's a bit power-levely to say)

Cole is living it up in Manhatten and his wife, Katherine Kyle owns a bar. Plus, they live in a very nice apartment. He has everything he wants, he doesn't care about 14 BLC. He mentioned Barb 2 months ago in a podcast saying " I would never let my girlfriend near my mom"

Fuck yeah Cole is living the dream

If I had a possible $25k for some utterly worthless item, I'd probably try to resolve a late payment as sweetly and politely as possible rather than go bitching to ebay about it.

Chris's life is truly a comedy of errors. It's like watching a train driven by a clown go head on with a train driven by ten midgets in an engineer's suit. You know it's all going to end in disaster, but it's absurd enough to make you want to watch in the first place.
