The Duggar Family News: How Jill & Derick Pay For Their International Trips

The Duggars is one of the biggest families most people know. The "19 Kids and Counting" clan continues to grow as Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar's children start their own family. However, many wonder how Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard pay for their trips.

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Jim Bob Duggar has a net worth of $3.5 million. However, given the family's size, the amount remains small. Does he fund Jill and Derick's missionary trips? Unfortunately, the answer is no.

Jill Duggar-Dillard's income comes from the donation from their missionary works. This has put the family into hot water because they are reportedly misusing the funds donated to them, Blasting News reported.

Jill Duggar-Dillard and her husband, Derick came under fire when they asked for people's money when they are about to return to the States. At that time, Jill was prepping for the birth of her second baby. The couple reportedly wrote on their Dillard family website encouraging their followers for continued support when their El Salvador mission was about to end. The post directed the readers to a donation page on their site.

However, aside from asking for donations, Jill Duggar-Dillard has other means of income too. For instance, she is paid for her appearance on the "19 Kids and Counting" spinoff "Jill & Jessa: Counting On." Reports have it that each cast member receives around $25,000 to $75,000 per episode for their show on TLC.

In addition to that, Jill Duggar-Dillard and her sister Jessa Duggar-Seewald are part of a documentary titled "Breaking the Silence." The show addresses the molestation scandal they endured in the hands of their brother, Josh Duggar.

That's not all, Jinger Duggar-Dillard is also one of the authors of the book titled "Growing Up Duggar." Her sisters, Jessa, Jinger and Jana co-author the book.
