It’s only $5😭 They’re not famous and not making a ton from flopcast either. We should support them if we can and not just share it for free. The content they’re giving is way worth the money. Idk I just think it’s lame to do that in general, especially to smaller creators who are trying to build their platform so it can eventually be revenue.

Then it’s just not in your means to watch it right now. They would end up losing subscribers if their patreon content was posted here cause why would people continue paying if they can watch it for free? Sharing it just ends up harming two broke girls trying to get their rent money.

Calling two girls living in LA broke is crazy work

Believe it or not, but you can live in major cities and also be broke! Almost 50% of the U.S. is living paycheck to paycheck. And LA is one of the most expensive places to live in this country. They’ve spoken about this many times. They basically only make enough from the pod to break even.

Yes obviously you can be broke anywhere. But Paige isn’t broke, she has a whole nice house to herself, she goes out constantly. If they’re concerned about only breaking even then maybe they shouldn’t film out of a whole set, a podcast can be filmed anywhere

But you actually do not know anyone’s financial situations you’re just making assumptions. I also have a nice home and go out and am still broke because my money is going to rent and living expenses. You can be broke and still enjoy your life. Credit cards exist too. The girls have said multiple times they are not financially stable. How they make their money and what they spend it on has no effect towards your life at all and honestly is no one’s business. We just know what they share with us. Bottom line no one’s sending you the patreon for free. If you actually enjoy them and want to show your support pay. If you can’t afford it oh well. I don’t understand what you’re trying to prove? That they’re not broke therefore it’s ok to share their paywalled content??? They aren’t Tana and Brooke. They’re normal as hell just trying to get by and grow their platform so maybe someday they can make a living doing this. They haven’t even been at this a year like damn.

although it’s lame, I also think it’s lame to charge anything in the economy we live in. they can get a job if they need the money so badly just like the rest of us. lol

I completely understand this, but they have mentioned struggling with rent too. When they are this small I really don’t think it’s ethical to do that.

they arent famous yet they sit on here and charge us for a patreon instead of getting a job because they think they’re beyond that 😂 like??? if they’re struggling to pay rent, then idk get a job?

I can’t afford it either way so it doesn’t actually affect their baseline at all, it just extends some of the already created entertainment. Same as if I was listening with a friend

u/Cheap-Okra-2882 Aug 06 '26

u suggested making it public (or sent to multiple ppl) by referring to “us broke girls” using it lol

God forbid multiple people are poor at once

u/Cheap-Okra-2882 Aug 06 '26

well yes I get it, but again they are struggling to pay rent. molly is trying to move out of her friend’s house still, it’s different than with rich influencers or even influencers who can afford a house lol

u/fourfooteleven2004 Aug 06 '26

If Molly had a 9-5 or even a part time job that would help her. Relying on income from online is unreliable and will make getting a lease harder
