For six seasons now, Amber Portwood has been pulling in six-figure paychecks for her “work” on Teen Mom.
So you’d think by now she would be pretty stable financially.
But in true Teen Mom fashion, it seems that “stable” is pretty much the last word one would use to describe Amber’s life.
Radar Online is reporting today that Amber has been hit with a federal tax lien after accumulating more than $ 130,000 in debt to the US government.
Sources say Amber was notified of the lien in February of this year, and she reportedly has yet to pay a dime on it.
As we said, Ms. Portwood has been pulling in the bucks for most of her adult life, a fact that’s left many wondering how she could’ve possibly racked up that sort of debt.
Not surprisingly, many fans are now pointing the finger at Amber’s deadbeat dad fiance, Matt Baier.
In case you haven’t been keeping score at home, Baier may have as many as nine children by seven different women, all of whom claim he hasn’t been supporting his kids financially.
There have even been rumors that he’s rushing his marriage to Portwood so that his debt can become their debt.
We have no way of knowing if that’s true, but some fans are speculating that Amber is trying to help her man pay off his baby mama before the wedding – and the effort has left her buried under a mountain of debt.
Whatever the case, it looks like Amber is still making some seriously questionable decisions with regard to both her romances and her finances.
Here’s hoping she can get some money advice from the bafflingly wealthy Farrah Abraham.
Watch Teen Mom online to marvel at how these girls can make so much money and still live so poorly.
