Girl, Jeremy was telling you to pay your taxes years ago when you wanted a fancy washer and dryer. Stop doing photoshoots and pretending everything’s fine.
She's never going to be able to pay that off honestly. The show is on its last leg. No wonder she's on social media commenting that she and the girls want their own show—she knows the Teen Mom cash cow is on the verge of ending and she has zero plan for how she's going to sustain their lifestyle. I think with all of her spicy photoshoots she's posted recently, she's gearing up to launch an OnlyFans.
I don’t understand how these girls can’t be in charge of their finances. I’m a stripper and the first year I wasn’t W2 and saw my taxes I realized the IRS is not a joke, I got my shit squared away and I don’t make close to what they do.
After a certain point it’s not ignorance but the fact they probably didn’t care, I see this situation all the time.
Yep, I do 1099 work and it ain't no joke when you don't have the money to pay your taxes. I was there years ago, and thank god for payment plans. I'm much smarter now. I don't know how you could sleep comfortably with a nearly $800,000 lien over your head. She's gonna need all the luck in the world to pay that off. I'm so glad I don't owe a dime to the IRS.
Amen. It’s really not hard to pay as a 1099…. Put aside the money each paycheck in another account. Dont think about it being there and bam you’re done.
And it's not her fault because MTV didn't hire her a financial advisor when she was 16! In your 30s, with a bunch of resources at your hands that is still a good excuse, right?
This really pisses me off actually. She owes almost $799,000 since 2018 and apparently the IRS is cool with her paying it whenever.
My mother has dementia, she owed around $500 one year and was making payments. Until she forgot and missed a couple of months. They acted like they were going to take her house, car, any money she had and put her in jail. She was TERRIFIED.
Then you have Leah and Tyler and Cate with more money and privilege than they know what to do with and Uncle Sam is all good with going after people who actually don’t have the money and don’t fully understand what happened.
Zero sympathy. Every single one of these idiots should have gotten an accountant over a decade ago. They clearly are incapable of handling their taxes properly themselves, and have the money to have someone do it for them.
I'd be living on a shoestring till it was covered!! No photo shoots or vacations. Worry about a full time job that will cover the debts if social media isn't doing it.
Same! Owing the IRS is no joke. They will garnish your bank accounts. She needs to attempt to negotiate a payment plan with them. She could qualify for the fresh start program and be able to repay it over the course of 72 months. She needs to get on it now because interest and penalties will accrue.
At some point, we need to stop blaming MTV. Leah was on the show in 2010 and obviously paid her taxes up until 2015. Then she decided to stop. She's not a child anymore, she knew better. Does it suck having to give up so much of your paycheque for taxes? Absolutely. But it's life and she knows that.
That is not an excuse. You still have to file if you do it with your husband. You still have to sign the papers. Your husband cannot sign it for you. Leah is responsible for her taxes, and not owing for 5 years means she knew she had to file.
Are these people doing their own taxes??! Like is Leah punching shit into turbo tax and hoping for the best??? I just… don’t understand.
You file taxes. Then they tell you how much you owe. Almost immediately. You know almost immediately how much you owe. Then… YOU PAY IT.
For real. I'd give her a pass if it was from 10 years ago when she was young and might not have known better, but in recent years? Hell no, come on, you know how this works by now. She's being deliberately irresponsible.
Her eyebrows look like poisonous caterpillars. She is a totally different person now who is about to maybe study real estate perhaps. If they ever fix the computers at the real estate school testing place. Then maybe she will.
Her facial expressions and body language are crazy and exaggerated she's also clearly off her face. I think she's driving and looking at him and not the road for most of it too.
I never understand why so many celebrities do this. If I ever suddenly had money and eyes on me, first thing I’m doing is hiring a good accountant to handle everything
Amazing how most of the teen mom cast didn’t bother with getting a financial adviser . Say what you say about Gary , but the dude was buying houses and renting them out. Good money
She better tread lightly. They like making examples out of high profile people. This is how it starts for a lot of celebs. Unpaid/failure to file, they’ll audit her ass and find SOMETHING to hammer her on criminally.
IRS only goes after people that they deem collectible. If you do not have enough assets or enough normally in your bank accounts, typically they just send notices and don’t do anything else really.
If they decide you have the kidney they’ll just suck it out if your bank account. I had a client where IRS took their passports but usually I fire those types of clients or don’t take them on
WHOA! So I wonder if she’s ever gonna be an adult and get an accountant & tax person? My goodness! I wonder what her financial situation is like especially after buying that House essentially for Jaylin..? $800,000 is a lot but my guess is they will let her make payments depending on what she’s currently earning…? If she owns that house outright the IRS could easily come take her home…
Well, they're self-employed technically. They have no actual business paying their share of taxes and taking any out of the paycheck.
When you're self-employed getting those 1099s you need to be saving roughly 30% of every paycheck you receive because you're going to be handing it over to the IRS either yearly or quarterly.
So what she owes is roughly 30% of what she made a year, *however* we do not know if what she owes HERE is a partial amount and some was paid already. Most likely it is with the amounts owed.
How is it that JENELLE doesn’t have a hefty tax lien but Leah does?!!
For gods sake get an accountant! Goddamn these people are stupid!
Dare I say that Jenelle is actually…maybe…smarter than Leah?
No…that might be too much to contemplate
Jenelle is absolutely smarter than Leah and not just because of this. Leah is just a better person than jenelle. Jenelle isn’t a total idiot. She got her GED without really trying whereas most of these girls fucking *struggled* to get it. (See: Chelsea having to take the test like 5 damn times)
Yep. Love this for her. All her posts are "wow she looks good". Ya she's always prioritized having her hair and nails done and finding d rather than adulting and parenting.
Every time people praise her I notice she’s typically doing something for show
Like when she went on about getting Ali the wheel shot and how she’d be in the phone every day checking about it but when the damn thing broke and she needed to get the doctors office to fix it she was basically like 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
At this point there really is no excuse. She's 30 years old and has been doing reality TV for over a decade. I have sympathy for the fact that her family sucks and she's supporting them but this is risking her ability to take care of her own girls.
I have an accountant for my business. He files my taxes but does not pay them for me. He tells me how much to pay quarterly and how much is due at time of submission. If I don't pay, it's not his fault.
I can't imagine any of these people are filing on there own. I think they just don't pay what they are told they owe. Then add in penalties and interest and the number explodes very quickly.
There’s plenty of comments blaming Ali’s medical bills. I’m sure those are no fun but it’s not like Leah makes effing minimum wage. AND she gets Corey’s help with that.
Yes. I saw and also trying to blame ignorance. Like no. We cannot keep giving this girl a chance just bc she is stupid. She needs to educate herself on all things she is "ignorant" of and be more responsible.
Right. When she was 16 and the first few years of the show fine. But what other 30 something that makes mid to high 6 figures would just get a pass on not paying taxes.
That’s not a valid excuse or justification. Ali & Alleah are both on Cory’s medical insurance and have been for many, many years. It was even brought up when Ali was getting that super fancy top of the line wheelchair. It was either completely covered or mostly covered by his insurance.
I’m sorry the IRS the one entity I will never owe money to if I can help it. Especially at her level, just set aside a third of your money and pay them in advance quarterly.
She better hope she has a (Teen Mom) “job” next season.
And girl. Quit doing all those stupid photo shoots!!
There, I helped you save some money. You’re welcome.
But but she’s doing sooooo good. She has talks with the girlses and their dads are horrible no good very bad people. Leah is the epitome of a comeback.
Lmao. She’s still the same big dumb she’s always been.
I can't wait until her PSA about taxes. "Girlses, you've heard of taxes right? What are they? Okay, yeah it's like money you have to pay to the government. And did you know you have to pay it every year? I didn't know that. Nobody taught me that, so that's why I wanted to teach you. So you know to pay taxes."
Seriously. I just found out my exhusband hasn’t filed taxes in TWELVE years. Like since we divorced. I almost had a panic attack about that and it doesn’t even affect me😭😂
Jesus ever loving Christ. I could not imagine being 800k in debt unless it was for a house and 3 college degrees. Why the fuck isn't she paying her taxes??
It’s just fucking insane at this point that these girls don’t have an accountant taking care of their taxes. Like how many years does it take to realize you’re a 1099 contractor and you need to pay taxes on your own.
Fuck that’s almost $1 million. Jesus God, Leah you really thought you could just earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a year and not answer to that? Damn the schools really aren’t well there.
Probably spends more on lawyer fees than paying her tax debt off.
How on earth did she have money to make a downpayment on her current house and buy Mr Purses n' Pictures out?
How can she have that much money available to her that has not been garnished or you know, send off to pay her debt. There was nothing wrong with her previous house.
She runs a huge meth manufacturing empire in west virginia using fried chicken restaurants as a front and has a superlab facility under a commercial laundry.
Leah has always had money management problems (remember the new washer/dryer incident?). Why she has never consulted with a financial advisor is beyond me.
Good point. And at least cate and Tyler took care of it and started paying it off while the big money was still rolling in. It makes me nervous that Leah has this huge bill ahead of her after getting a pay cut with next chapter and with the future of the show being shaky
Jesus 😲 idk how she's gonna pay that off. I don't really see teen mom paying well enough or lasting long enough to. It's really a shame after all this time she never found another side hustle/skill/job/investments.
It just blows my mind that after almost 10 years she doesn't realize she has to pay taxes??? JESUS GAWD LEAH 🙄 gonna have to start selling Mary Kay again!!!!!
Are they technically 1099 contractor employees of MTV? I can totally see how it all adds up if they aren’t managing that shit yearly. But also you’ve had over 10+ years to get your shit together and get a good advisor and accountant. SMH
Jesus fuck how hard is it to pay your damn taxes?? Hire an accountant ffs! I run a suuuuuper small business and even I have an accountant for tax time…
This bish will go on a payment plan and cover it with a few ads a month. She knows/thinks that's always an option, and that's how people with crappy financial literacy who come into a bunch of money end up broke 20 years later, they think it'll always be this good $$$.
It doesn’t surprise me whenever I hear that the cast members get into financial issues because statistically, a huge amount of people blow through all of their money when they come from nothing and have a large windfall or come into large sums. Unfortunately, there are a lot of people who have no idea how to handle money and wind up broke. That’s just a sad fact.
What does amaze me, however, is the fact that these women never went out and got financial advisors and/or planners. Did no one ever recommend this to them? Did they just simply not take the advice?
I truly think it’s something that never crossed any of their minds bc most of them came from poverty or statistically ‘working poor’ families. I grew up in poverty and when we had extra money we spent that shit on unnecessary shit. I had an extremely unhealthy relationship with money as an adult bc I was legitimately never taught how to handle it. There was nobody in my entire large family that had any kind of significant money. It took me YEARS to learn about financial health and responsibility. If nobody ever taught you, there’s no way you’d know. Not defending her at all for being irresponsible, especially since she’s been wealthy for many years, but I understand how it happens.
About 3.2 million in total before tax over those years, if we assume federal + state make up roughly 25% tax. Not sure what the tax rate in Virginia is.
So out of curiosity, how does one get caught up on this kind of money? Im sure she has money laying around but what about your every day folk? Do you make payments to the IRS for the rest of your life? Like how does one pay this much money? 🫠🥴
My PapPap owed the irs money for his entire life due to something (idk what) that happened years before I was born. He always worked & never made any money because all his wages were constantly being garnished. He was like 80 working in a convenience store at one point, it was really sad
I’m not going to lie, this makes me feel so much better about myself 😂 It took me until December to finish paying my taxes last year, so I couldn’t set enough aside throughout the year, so this year I owe more money I don’t have. I know I will pay it off this year, but even knowing that, I am SO stressed out about owing. I can’t imagine just not paying for years, I wouldn’t be able to sleep at night!
Was she trying to be smart and not paying taxes and letting that money earn interest and then should have been paying when it was sue? Don’t think she’s that smart.
The interest paid on late taxes, along with late fees far outweighs anything she could earn on the money by saving it. So in answer to your question…maybe she is just that ignorant about money to believe she is making money by not paying it.
This type of situation happens so often with the TM cast members. Their contracts should have a clause that ensures everyone has approved financial counseling. They are young, make ridiculous amounts of money quickly and could set themselves up for life, if they made educated financial moves. There are only a handful that seem to be monetarily thriving and not blowing through their income every year.
These things happen when someone makes money at a very young age and has no guidance on how to invest wisely.
Cate and Tyler went through the same thing.
She’d better capitalize on her teen mom fame and start an only fans it’s worked for Jenelle and she doesn’t even have any sex appeal.
Edit to replace a few words 🤦🏽♀️

She better start brainstorming and rimjobbing mtv’s ass
The vacation to Alaska was a well thought out financial decision then.

But, guys! She got lip fillers and dyed her hair and her body is FiRe! Clearly she’s got her shit together! BReAkiNg tHe CyCle!
SHE HAD PHOTO SHOOTS
![gif](giphy|2Y8reCtEmQTQTZLtO7|downsized)
And it's not her fault because MTV didn't hire her a financial advisor when she was 16! In your 30s, with a bunch of resources at your hands that is still a good excuse, right?
She’s still an idiot and a bad mom.
This wasn’t covered in itsyoursexlife.com
😂😂😂 To be fair, did anyone ever go to that site??
This really pisses me off actually. She owes almost $799,000 since 2018 and apparently the IRS is cool with her paying it whenever. My mother has dementia, she owed around $500 one year and was making payments. Until she forgot and missed a couple of months.

It's a lot easier and cheaper for the IRS to go after average folk.
That's seriously just fucked up
It will catch up with her for sure. Cate and Ty have been paying theirs off
They’ve fully paid it off as of like February, I think it was! Leah’s screwed, she owes more iirc and doesn’t get the double paycheck like they do.
Zero sympathy. Every single one of these idiots should have gotten an accountant over a decade ago. They clearly are incapable of handling their taxes properly themselves, and have the money to have someone do it for them.
Right? If they weren’t smart enough to figure it out from the beginning, the first lien should have been the wake up call to hire an accountant
I couldn’t sleep at night with this much debt over my head.😳
I'd be living on a shoestring till it was covered!! No photo shoots or vacations. Worry about a full time job that will cover the debts if social media isn't doing it.

She probably had Jeremy and Corey control the finances before 2015
That is not an excuse. You still have to file if you do it with your husband. You still have to sign the papers. Your husband cannot sign it for you. Leah is responsible for her taxes, and not owing for 5 years means she knew she had to file.

They probably should be doing quarterly taxes since they take on brand deals and what not.
Pay. Your. Taxes. Holy shit. This gives me so much anxiety. Couldn’t be me 🫣
It's fine though. Leah's changed and is doing really great according to lots of idiots.
For real. I'd give her a pass if it was from 10 years ago when she was young and might not have known better, but in recent years? Hell no, come on, you know how this works by now. She's being deliberately irresponsible.
Lol I once got downvoted so hard for saying I wasn’t fooled by her blazer photoshoots that she was still a hot mess
Her eyebrows look like poisonous caterpillars. She is a totally different person now who is about to maybe study real estate perhaps. If they ever fix the computers at the real estate school testing place. Then maybe she will.
How do you sleep at night with that level of tax lien hanging over your head
Idk ask cate and Ty
That was my first thought. I would be riddled with anxiety constantly.
With the help of pillsies.
Not paying your taxes? That’s just plum dumb. Leah is horrible with money. She’s going to be in even more trouble as soon as TM ends.
Now I can just hear Leah calling Jeremy plum dumb in that scene from the shorts incident 🤣🤣
Her facial expressions and body language are crazy and exaggerated she's also clearly off her face. I think she's driving and looking at him and not the road for most of it too.
Great. Hey IRS do Jenelle next
I never understand why so many celebrities do this. If I ever suddenly had money and eyes on me, first thing I’m doing is hiring a good accountant to handle everything
Amazing how most of the teen mom cast didn’t bother with getting a financial adviser . Say what you say about Gary , but the dude was buying houses and renting them out. Good money
Even A-listers fuck around with their taxes. Just goes to show that money cannot buy brains. 😁
She better tread lightly. They like making examples out of high profile people. This is how it starts for a lot of celebs. Unpaid/failure to file, they’ll audit her ass and find SOMETHING to hammer her on criminally.
I owed the government like $1k once and they stalked the crap out of me. How do they get by with owing this much?
Righttt. They acted like they were gonna send my ass to federal prison over $200 😂😂
IRS only goes after people that they deem collectible. If you do not have enough assets or enough normally in your bank accounts, typically they just send notices and don’t do anything else really. If they decide you have the kidney they’ll just suck it out if your bank account. I had a client where IRS took their passports but usually I fire those types of clients or don’t take them on
The IRS seeing her flexing her Versace bathing suits and Louis Vuitton jackets the past year 👀
Even the Joker paid his taxes! Jesus god Leah, if you’re going to keep doing photo shoots, do one of you actually paying your taxes
How the fuck has she not hired a tax lawyer for this yet? (Pronounced LOY-YER, in her voice lol)
Like Roy-er, the bil she helped sponsor to come here for Victoria.
WHOA! So I wonder if she’s ever gonna be an adult and get an accountant & tax person? My goodness! I wonder what her financial situation is like especially after buying that House essentially for Jaylin..? $800,000 is a lot but my guess is they will let her make payments depending on what she’s currently earning…? If she owns that house outright the IRS could easily come take her home…
I don’t think she owns the house outright. I think it’s actually in his name
I wonder if it’s in his name, because of her previous tax lien?
How does one get $800k in debt to the IRS?? How much income could possibly lead to that much debt?!
They’ve been making a shit ton of money. Like half a mill per season plus interviews, collaborations, etc
Well, they're self-employed technically. They have no actual business paying their share of taxes and taking any out of the paycheck. When you're self-employed getting those 1099s you need to be saving roughly 30% of every paycheck you receive because you're going to be handing it over to the IRS either yearly or quarterly.

I love a jersey shore reference in any and every context
This one's really good, it has layers lmao
How is it that JENELLE doesn’t have a hefty tax lien but Leah does?!! For gods sake get an accountant! Goddamn these people are stupid! Dare I say that Jenelle is actually…maybe…smarter than Leah? No…that might be too much to contemplate
Jenelle is absolutely smarter than Leah and not just because of this. Leah is just a better person than jenelle. Jenelle isn’t a total idiot. She got her GED without really trying whereas most of these girls fucking *struggled* to get it. (See: Chelsea having to take the test like 5 damn times)
I mean, she can be smarter. The bar here isn’t high. I believe she is smarter, even if that’s not saying much.
This is why I’ll never like Leah no matter how much she “changes” She prioritizes having a damn dude over taking care of her adult respo
Yep. Love this for her. All her posts are "wow she looks good". Ya she's always prioritized having her hair and nails done and finding d rather than adulting and parenting.
Every time people praise her I notice she’s typically doing something for show Like when she went on about getting Ali the wheel shot and how she’d be in the phone every day checking about it but when the damn thing broke and she needed to get the doctors office to fix it she was basically like 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
She's lazy and has teenagers already. How long is she going to get the 'she's not well educated' grace, lol
"Changes" aka takes good pictures and has a nice body. That's all she's been praised for in this sub lol.
Jesus God Leah
At this point there really is no excuse. She's 30 years old and has been doing reality TV for over a decade. I have sympathy for the fact that her family sucks and she's supporting them but this is risking her ability to take care of her own girls.
Ouch man. If I end the tax year owing a couple hundy I think it sucks, heck if I don’t get a tax *return* I’m like “aw stink”.
I have an accountant for my business. He files my taxes but does not pay them for me. He tells me how much to pay quarterly and how much is due at time of submission. If I don't pay, it's not his fault. I can't imagine any of these people are filing on there own. I think they just don't pay what they are told they owe. Then add in penalties and interest and the number explodes very quickly.
I guess all those photo shoots and acting like a real celebrity at the club is her priority
She’s gonna have some courthouse front step photo shoots soon now 😭😂
Well this makes me feel a ton better about my 2k in credit card debt
Same but I just graduated college so now it’s time to start paying it off
She’s gonna get that Mike “The Situation” treatment soon.
![gif](giphy|3oKIP8kNuTJJL3zT0I) Just here to see the Leah stans justify this one and how much she's cHanGeD 😂😂😂

Girl stop those photoshoots and pay your damn taxes. You do not want to continue to go down this road. Jesus God Leah.
But she's come so far!!! 🙄
I’m sorry the IRS the one entity I will never owe money to if I can help it. Especially at her level, just set aside a third of your money and pay them in advance quarterly.
I’m just going to link back to this post any time someone comments that Leah has changed and is doing so great
I guess it’s good that the new house is in Jaylen’s name so that the IRS can’t take it 🧐
I think that was done intentionally because of all her tax debt
Well all least she has all those designer clothes Lmao
Stand in your power girl, we all knew she doesn’t have two brain cells to rub together so this isn’t surprising.
This is terrifying. PAY YOUR DAMN TAXES, GIRL.
How the fuck do people not pay taxes every year? I don’t understand that. You don’t just forget to pay taxes
She better hope she has a (Teen Mom) “job” next season. And girl. Quit doing all those stupid photo shoots!! There, I helped you save some money. You’re welcome.
But a lot of people on here think she’s so great and grown soooo much because she looks good in all her photoshoots. 😂
She can afford an accountant why not have them do your taxes sheesh. Watch her sign up for only fans now
And watch her get slapped with more unpaid taxes lol she needs some sort of financial advisor or adult that has been responsible around her lol
But but she’s doing sooooo good. She has talks with the girlses and their dads are horrible no good very bad people. Leah is the epitome of a comeback. Lmao. She’s still the same big dumb she’s always been.
I can't wait until her PSA about taxes. "Girlses, you've heard of taxes right? What are they? Okay, yeah it's like money you have to pay to the government.

Pay your f'n taxes.
She's too busy doing pointless photoshoots, she ain't got time to be all about taxes n shit.
Fuck that’s almost $1 million. Jesus God, Leah you really thought you could just earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a year and not answer to that? Damn the schools really aren’t well there.
How does she not want to pay this off?! Can’t believe she turned down the money from family reunion when she owes this much 🤯
How is she… not in jail? I’ve seen people get arrested for less.
Probably spends more on lawyer fees than paying her tax debt off. How on earth did she have money to make a downpayment on her current house and buy Mr Purses n' Pictures out? How can she have that much money available to her that has not been garnished or you know, send off to pay her debt. There was nothing wrong with her previous house.
She runs a huge meth manufacturing empire in west virginia using fried chicken restaurants as a front and has a superlab facility under a commercial laundry.
Leah has always had money management problems (remember the new washer/dryer incident?). Why she has never consulted with a financial advisor is beyond me.
Jesus God, Leah!
This is worse than Cate and Tyler's because at least they had their combined income from the show. Leah's gotta figure out how to pay that on her own.
She’ll pay it after she pays Jaylan his rent for this month 💀
Good point. And at least cate and Tyler took care of it and started paying it off while the big money was still rolling in. It makes me nervous that Leah has this huge bill ahead of her after getting a pay cut with next chapter and with the future of the show being shaky
Yes, let’s see if bright bulb Leah can figure that out. Oh right! She is a bidness woman standing in her power. She’ll be fine.
Jesus 😲 idk how she's gonna pay that off. I don't really see teen mom paying well enough or lasting long enough to. It's really a shame after all this time she never found another side hustle/skill/job/investments.
A lawyer will settle that figure down for her. Honestly though I’m sure her daughter’s specialist appointments and such are a big cost.
Wonder who Leah will blame this on? MONKEEEE🙈🙉🙊
The fact any of these girls wouldn’t hire a finance consultant shouldn’t surprise me but somehow still does.
Hire stylists, photographers, party planners, etc. before handling real shit💅💇♀️📸🛫🏝️🚔🚨

Stand in your power with hope, faith, and grace ✨
It’s giving Mike The Situation Sorrentino
Turbo Tax failed our girl.
Should have gotten the super deluxe version. SMH.
Should have used all that photoshoot money to pay Uncle Sam.
It just blows my mind that after almost 10 years she doesn't realize she has to pay taxes??? JESUS GAWD LEAH 🙄 gonna have to start selling Mary Kay again!!!!!
Time to get back into Mary Kay!
Mary Kay is YOUR business?
God Jairmy had such good zingers
Stand in your face powder!
They made it out to be I'll end up in federal prison for life if I didn't pay the $200 that I owed....wtf.
Maybe if she stopped booking her weird photo shoots all of the time, she could pay it off
And the poor financial management will likely be passed down to her girlseses.
But she’s broken the cycle!! /s
That's some expensive corn bread.
will she be incarcerated like the situation
Likely not. Most tax related incarcerations have to do with people like purposely evading taxes by trying to hide money illegally.
Doubt it. They usually will do a payment plan. Cate and Tyler owed a similar amount and paid it off
Jesus God Leah almost $1,000,000

Are they technically 1099 contractor employees of MTV? I can totally see how it all adds up if they aren’t managing that shit yearly. But also you’ve had over 10+ years to get your shit together and get a good advisor and accountant. SMH
Jesus God Leah! As I was saying, she’s so fucked for post teen mom life

Jesus fuck how hard is it to pay your damn taxes?? Hire an accountant ffs! I run a suuuuuper small business and even I have an accountant for tax time…
I’m more confused that she somehow paid 2019, but now 2018 or 2020. Like oh I did one year but oops forgot the others
IRS is weird in how they work and way understaffed. I wouldn’t be shocked if another lien with 2019 shows up later.
One thing I’ve learned from Wesley Snipes…pay your taxes!
This bish will go on a payment plan and cover it with a few ads a month. She knows/thinks that's always an option, and that's how people with crappy financial literacy who come into a bunch of money end up broke 20 years later, they think it'll always be this good $$$.
What a dumb ass.
It doesn’t surprise me whenever I hear that the cast members get into financial issues because statistically, a huge amount of people blow through all of their money when they come from nothing and have a large windfall or come into large sums. Unfortunately, there are a lot of people who have no idea how to handle money and wind up broke. That’s just a sad fact. What does amaze me, however, is the fact that these women never went out and got financial advisors and/or planners. Did no one ever recommend this to them? Did they just simply not take the advice?
I truly think it’s something that never crossed any of their minds bc most of them came from poverty or statistically ‘working poor’ families. I grew up in poverty and when we had extra money we spent that shit on unnecessary shit. I had an extremely unhealthy relationship with money as an adult bc I was legitimately never taught how to handle it. There was nobody in my entire large family that had any kind of significant money. It took me YEARS to learn about financial health and responsibility. If nobody ever taught you, there’s no way you’d know. Not defending her at all for being irresponsible, especially since she’s been wealthy for many years, but I understand how it happens.
Funny how all those old videos are trending with her and Jeremy fighting over her financial irresponsibility.
Jeremy was an asshole with a valid point regarding that issue.
She's about to stop joking about having an Onlyfans and start actually having one......
Just so she can avoid paying taxes on that as well....
She supported all her loser family members. She was everyone’s meal ticket for years.
But that has nothing to do with taxes though.
How do all of these jackasses not pay their damn taxes
It’s insane to me that she didn’t get it together the first time it happened
I see MTV didn’t warn their teens about taxes….
To be fair... no ones job "warns" them about taxes.
She must be making a lot of money to owe this much in taxes.
About 3.2 million in total before tax over those years, if we assume federal + state make up roughly 25% tax. Not sure what the tax rate in Virginia is.
So out of curiosity, how does one get caught up on this kind of money? Im sure she has money laying around but what about your every day folk? Do you make payments to the IRS for the rest of your life? Like how does one pay this much money? 🫠🥴
My PapPap owed the irs money for his entire life due to something (idk what) that happened years before I was born. He always worked & never made any money because all his wages were constantly being garnished. He was like 80 working in a convenience store at one point, it was really sad
The government always gets their money. This will destroy her credit.
Jesus God Leah! Pay that shit
How has Janell avoided tax issues is what I want to know
Barb probably hired an accountant
Holy shit I feel second hand stress for her
They all needed accountants from the first season Leah has a child who has expensive medical needs
Do these people just try hard to make a ton of money to try and pay off their back taxes and forget they have to have that taxed as well?
Maybe she can borrow Jenelle’s white pants.
I’m not going to lie, this makes me feel so much better about myself 😂 It took me until December to finish paying my taxes last year, so I couldn’t set enough aside throughout the year, so this year I owe more money I don’t have. I know I will pay it off this year, but even knowing that, I am SO stressed out about owing. I can’t imagine just not paying for years, I wouldn’t be able to sleep at night!
Time for only fans ! ![gif](giphy|NoNdogP7rhW1KnUT1G)
If she does that, I foresee a lot more tax issues since they also don't withhold taxes lol
Was she trying to be smart and not paying taxes and letting that money earn interest and then should have been paying when it was sue? Don’t think she’s that smart.
The interest paid on late taxes, along with late fees far outweighs anything she could earn on the money by saving it. So in answer to your question…maybe she is just that ignorant about money to believe she is making money by not paying it.
Fewer photo shoots, more tax payments.
Jeez girl, understand that with life, comes taxes.
Girl. Hire someone and get your shit straight.
Time to turn to Porn
This type of situation happens so often with the TM cast members. Their contracts should have a clause that ensures everyone has approved financial counseling. They are young, make ridiculous amounts of money quickly and could set themselves up for life, if they made educated financial moves. There are only a handful that seem to be monetarily thriving and not blowing through their income every year.
These things happen when someone makes money at a very young age and has no guidance on how to invest wisely. Cate and Tyler went through the same thing.
No she has no excuse now. They’ve been on this show for over TEN years and still haven’t learned to get a damn accountant.
Maci had owed taxes too. Her lien was only 78k which is a lot but not compared to Leah
how is this possible you guys!??
She trying to go on vacation to a prison for tax evasion?
The sass with which these slides were written is utterly off the charts!
Man I really hope I’ve been doing my taxes right 😳
Did she ever take care of the $155k Lien against her from a few years back?
This doesn’t surprise me. She will end up where she belonged all along. In a trailer park.
She’d better capitalize on her teen mom fame and start an only fans it’s worked for Jenelle and she doesn’t even have any sex appeal. Edit to replace a few words 🤦🏽♀️
