When they were both working actual jobs and then releasing a vlog per day on top of it (even an 8-10 minute vlog about nothing), I'd give them credit and say that they were working their asses off to make content and post it regularly. They do get a little bit of credit from me for that period in their life, they did work hard to get where they are now.
HOWEVER, once they were both able to quit those jobs and focus solely on the channel, you can tell they stopped working as hard, their creativity floundered, they got used to their luxury lifestyle of making their own schedule and doing whatever they wanted. Even with a small child in tow, you can tell by their videos they only put a few hours into creating them, then however long it takes Jenn to edit (which you know she does last minute and as lazily as possible). They don't work hard anymore, and it shows. Combined they're maybe doing 20 hours of work per week.
