Some 90 Day Fiance fans feel Brandon Gibbs is lying about being too poor to leave his parents’ house.
Some 90 Day Fiance viewers feel it is Brandon Gibbs’ future baby that is encouraging him to work in the form, although he has enough money to spend. Episode 11 of 90 Day Fiance season 8 revolved around Brandon Gibbs and Julia Trubkina’s fear over a possible baby.
When Julia feels nauseous, Brandon decides to go tell his parents Ron and Betty about it before doing a pregnancy test. While viewers felt the scenes were staged, some wondered why Brandon’s excuse for revealing this to his mom and dad was that he and Julia stayed under their roof.
Moreover, he couldn’t even afford to move out, let alone with a baby. However, fans know, Brandon does have a job, meaning, he is probably lying about being poor. And if so, why?
During an interview, Brandon had revealed that he works “a full-time job as a pest control technician.” Moreover, he does odd jobs at his parents’ Hummingbird Acres Farm for giving him shelter during his financially difficult times.
Being a pest control worker could fetch Brandon up to $40,000 a year, according to TheHollywoodGossip. The lowest estimated cost of the flight tickets for these trips i.e. Russia is around $1,900, France for both him and Julia is about $2,000 and Iceland is $900. On top of that, the stay, travel, her K-1 expenses all sums up to about $10,000 in total.
Given that Brandon has lived with his parents all his life, and because Ron and Betty have day jobs, Brandon may have not used much of his savings until he met Julia. A rented apartment close to Brandon’s home could cost somewhere between $600 – $1,200, per Apartments.com.
Considering Brandon’s salary and his 90 Day Fiance earnings which are usually $1,000 – $1,200 per episode, moving out shouldn’t be much of a hassle. It is also worth noting that he never revealed the total amount of debt he really was in and didn’t say if this “bit of debt” came due to spending money on Julia outside the show.
The couple was recently spotted at the Richmond airport, suggesting they are happily married by now.

Julia posting pictures from her new kitchen, which boasts of newer appliances, cabinets, and countertops to her Instagram account also sparked rumors of Brandon finally moving out.
