Jonathan always comes up with schemes and business plans but he’s just not capable of seeing them through. They’ve hinted at business ventures, the friendliest friends channel, Jonathan saying he was making cartoons, etc. He gets ideas and starts them off but can’t be bothered to keep going when it gets boring or requires hard work. I am glad they’ve stopped with the friendliest friends nonsense though because it really isn’t healthy to encourage young children (or anyone!) to call strangers on the internet their friends.
Anna is the same. At least she used to do some work with her own channel and the bits she did for her jewellery line. Now she just mopes about all day making insta stories, then picks up the camera for 10 minutes and calls it a productive day of work.
She didn't do anything for her jewellery line. The designs were picked from Google images. She may have had a few phonecalls, but everything else was done in Germany. She did not have to bother with producing, shipping, customer service, nothing. It was print on demand.
But she got a free trip to Germany out of it, wearing a silly hat if I remember correctly.
And yes, I know he says he has ADD, but why doesn't Anna stop him wasting so much money? As soon as he gets bored or it turns out to be a little more work than he enticipated he quits. I bet he threw an absolute fit with the first book didn't do well and the publishers decided not to do the 2nd one with him. He's got so many books and toys left over, even after he supposedly donated some of them (read: dumped at local charity shop. I bet they told him he could no longer do that).
Or rather: him throwing a fit resuted in the publishers not wanting to work with him again.
We all know he can't handle authority of any kind.
