OutDaughtered couple Danielle Busby and her husband, Adam Busby, have their hands full raising six daughters. To make ends meet, each also works a full-time job outside their family reality series. They admit that managing their lives can be hectic and expensive, especially when she realizes she can easily blow through $1000 a week.
OutDaughtered: Danielle Busby Shocked By Rising Prices
Most parents know that it costs a lot to provide for their needs when they have children. But imagine multiplying that cost times six. This is what OutDaughtered stars Adam and Danielle do daily. The TLC reality stars say that even though they have various sources of income, including the family reality series, Danielle’s Graeson Bee Boutique, Adam Busby Media, and their YouTube channel, It’s A Buzz World.
Recent reports estimate that the Busby family currently brings in between $25,000 and $40,000 per episode. But even with that income, the family says they still have to watch their pennies. However, that doesn’t stop her from dropping a grand weekly.
So where is all of this money going? According to the OutDaughtered mom, $1000 a week goes to groceries to feed their family of eight.” We’re spending anywhere from $800-$1000 a week just on grocery shopping to everything that’s got to be done for their sports and lunches. I mean, it’s expensive.”
The Cost of Raising Children Hit TLC Family Times Six
Danielle Busby has a lot on her plate tending to the needs of six girls. Many of their viewers will agree with the busy mom that the high cost of living continues to skyrocket, affecting each of us in many ways regardless of our income.
In 2022, the getearlybird.blog estimated that the average cost of raising one child from birth to age 18 was $288,094. This roughly breaks down to $16,005 per year, $1334 per month. These are last year’s figures, and with the continuing rising costs of everything, it is likely several dollars more.
These figures mean that the OutDaughtered family spends on the low end $8004 per month to care for their children and $96,048 annually. This does not factor in Adam and Danielle’s needs. So it is easy to see how and why they could become stressed over the family finances and budgeting.
OutDaughtered: Danielle & Adam Face Adversities with Humor
During the current season of OutDaughtered, viewers see a shift in the Busby family home. Danielle’s new boutique finds her spending more time away from home and at the shop. This puts more of the children’s care on Adam. He says at times, it overwhelms him.
Adam says they try and stay organized more, especially since their six daughters, Blayke Busby, Ava Busby, Olivia Busby, Riley Busby, and Parker Busby, are older now and involved in many more school and extracurricular activities to keep track of.
However, sometimes things go differently than planned, no matter how hard you try. So, on days when the family schedule is in complete chaos or the Universe hits them with an unexpected dilemma. They have a backup plan in place. No, they don’t, not really.
The OutDaughtered stars, Danielle Busby and her husband, Adam Busby, say, for the most part, they try and remain calm and tackle the adversities with as much humor as possible.
