  1. I think it’s pathetic to want a ring to show off, when you paid for half of it yourself.

  2. Paying higher wages forces businesses to raise prices for everyone. It doesn’t increase purchasing power or help the economy.
    54
  3. You mean she needs to start working in the first place. They should leave California. It’s too expensive them to have a future here.
    54
  4.  @lois081073  And way too great a percentage aren’t turning out well these days.
    38
  5.  @djm2189  She said in the first episode he was sexy. On their first date he TOLD her he was still married. She should have run. Pathetic that she got excited over his D and said he joined the ranks of “the educated Latinos”. Gimme a break. You could see he wasn’t buying it. I’d like to know what the math class was. I can’t get a C in anything higher than arithmetic. 🤣 But I can understand basic finance and compound interest. It was the only class he took that semester, but he did have a full time job and responsibility for his son. This is why parents tell their kids to get their education before taking on any responsibilities.

  6.  @JoRonnamo  Exactly. The economy grows when people increase their skills and value and produce more. Not when they get $18 per hour minimum wage for doing an entry-level job.
    37
  7. They go ahead and do it because the taxpayers are forced to support their children. I don’t have kids because I can’t afford them. Because i didn’t cause myself hardship, I’m forced to pay for theirs.
    37
  8.  @wil7228  They weren’t married when they got the ENGAGEMENT RING, Einstein.
    34
  9. José didn’t seem smart enough for her, and she was an immature, spoiled little princess. She flipped out every time it looked like she might not get what she wanted.
    31
  10.  @ecclairmayo4153  I suppose that was more then he planned to spend. He shouldn’t have taken her. He should have chosen the ring himself. It’s best for the guy to know what type of setting his GF likes, then buy it by himself, choosing a diamond he can afford. This girl is a demanding princess.
    30
  11.  @kumi9479  There’s hardly anything of quality on TV anyway.
    29
  12. Taxes which the government then spends on people who do all the wrong things.
    28
  13.  @bellazefra  It’s as if the older siblings escaped.
    24
  14. I was hoping Percy might get hired as a machinist.
    23
  15. All of God’s creatures work. And I’m sure she was taught to keep her legs closed.
    23
  16. Emilia should quit banging her head against the wall with waitress jobs and stop romanticizing about a mens construction job. Learn how to do an office job.
    23
  17.  @Provostialish  She needed to meet a guy there.
    21
  18.  @tezh5897  They must have taken equity out. I agree, it seems the sons could kick in to keep them going, especially because that house is headquarters for the entire extended family.
    18
  19. I’m sorry your family suffered; and your dad took the path less traveled, which led to the same place. But his choice got you out of there. Live a good life. 💕
    15
  20. He has a flat affect. Poor guy is buried under responsibilities. But he still knew how to woo a girl, even having a child and still being married.
    14
  21. Why do the pentecosts abuse those poor snakes, standing on them, subjecting them to all that racket, and locking them in a small box? 😢
    14
  22. I don’t appreciate the program burying the lead with regard to Emilia. I felt bad for her after learning she’d been a union sprinkler fitter in the first episode. After learning in this episode she did all the wrong things before that - not so much.
    14
  23. I agree about the ring and the wedding. Not about the shorts. It’s embarrassing and undignified for an older lady to wear shorts. It should be illegal for an employer not to provide the option of pants.
    13
  24.  @saturationstation1446  Millennials are entitled. Even the ones who grew up in Tijuana and live in a trailer park garage. 🙄
    13
  25. 1:48:15 Diana’s nails are ludicrous, and a manicure like that is very expensive. Totally unsuitable for a mother caring for children, not to mention newborns. People like her who are on public assistance will claim their friend is a manicurist and does it free when questioned. Even if that were true, it’s very time consuming, so she is wasting time when she ought to be working and earning money.
    12
  26. Emilia has money for acrylic nails and cigarettes. Elizabeth is wearing expensive Tory Burch shoes, in the scene just before she goes into her office to pay her bills and budget.
    12
  27. Sadly, Hilton and his girlfriend got a reprieve. I don’t believe for a second they had to pay that hospital bill. That was on the taxpayers.
    12
  28.  @Gobbldeegoo1  Would you rather look for food every day like the animals?
    12
  29. The ones who do the least make the biggest fuss at the time of death and the funeral, too. They make it all about them. And they’re Johnny on the Spot when it comes to any inheritance.
    12
  30. Elizabeth made a very poor decision by getting involved with that guy. His being sexy doesn’t put food on the table. He needs to get established before getting involved with anyone. Her parents sacrificed for her education, and she deliberately chose to bring hardship on herself.
    11
  31.  @ligbzd837  Hilton is really hampered. First he was born in the US but raised in Mexico. So he’s not allowed to work in Mexico, but he doesn’t speak English. Then, according to him, his mom kicked him out for not being able to contribute enough to the household. Because of the situation SHE set up. So he’s here doing the bottom-rung job. And I have an inkling this little GF and her mom intended for her to get pregnant and come to the US with him. Where is the Kennedy family?
    11
  32. Diamond rings are easily lost or stolen. My colleague lost her ring after 30 years.
    10
  33. These days parents and universities are turning out weak people.
    10
  34.  @ToxicAvengerCleanYourMind  Exactly. I’m a white-collar professional woman and I wanted kids. I didn’t have them because I didn’t get married, couldn’t afford them, and wouldn’t have been able to stay home with them. I’m alone, but have to pay for others to have families.
    10
  35. Me too!
    9
  36. Plus, since the size of the diamond was so important to her, she should have chosen a round stone. Square-cut is wasteful.
    9
  37.  @donnaleeclubb119  Employees get burned out and resentful when the workplace is understaffed. Watch Joshua Fluke.
    8
  38.  @djm2189  Thank you. Insurance is a great way for a person with a lot of contacts to maje money with no college education. She definitely knows a lot of people. Some of them must be business owners with larger accounts. She’s very social. Perfect personality to go out and get clients.
    8
  39. It’s better to invest the extra money. It will grow and compound more than the low interest rate on the loan.
    7
  40.  @mmp495  It takes a little planning and self-discipline not to bring problems on yourself.
    7
  41.  @happycook6737  I agree. No money and no space. The baby will go without something because of the cost of that tacky teddy bear. Or - here’s a revolutionary idea - he could have used that money to pay a token amount of the medical bills.
    7
  42. She’s also spoiled, demanding, and entitled. Keep watching.
    6
  43. Why is she sitting there having a philosophical conversation with David about the ethics of it at 31:00, her and her nasally voice? And telling him he could’ve lowballed her when he offered the allowance? Somehow I don’t think that’s how it’s done.
    6
  44. Asinine. I noticed that. And I’m a woman!
    6
  45.  @3namechangezalowdevry90day7  He would have found a better girl if he’d given himself a chance to learn English and prosper first.
    6
  46. When I was a server in college, it only paid to work at an expensive place. The wine sales rep had tastings for us. That’s how I learned about wine. Working at a breakfast place would be the wrong way to go about it because breakfast is very hectic and it’s cheap, so the tips are low.
    5
  47. It’s unacceptable how many people are coming out of the military without a skill that qualifies them for a decent job. What’s going on over there? Thank you for your service.
    5
  48. And they shouldn’t be living in a garage. The police and local prosecutors should have put a stop to that situation pronto.
    5
  49. She was really idiotic. If a material thing was so important to her, she should have found a different guy.
    4
  50. He really deserved to be hired.
    4
  51.  @Mariatrieseverything  Okay, I can see that.
    4
  52.  @coffeepot3123  I’d rathe4 be educated and also have fortitude. That’s not what’s happening these days.
    4
  53.  @unconventionalforager6389  Seriously. Her parents took out a $35K HELOC for her education and she borrowed another $30K. Miss Elizabeth wants what she wants. They handled their wedding pretty modestly, but they had a ton of guests, and she OWES MONEY.
    4
  54. That bird looked unhappy and stressed, with its head in the corner of the cage.
    4
  55.  @VegasAceVII  Now they make silicone wedding bands for guys who work with their hands.
    4
  56. I thought it was nice that he has friends at work, and they go out and shoot the breeze. The conversation doesn’t have to be strictly logical. Little did they know that ten years later, people really don’t want to work.
    4
  57.  @janedurham7293  That’s the party line of manual laborers. She hasn’t thought for herself about this. If you lack the reading skills to do anything interesting, then yes, an office job would be boring.
    4
  58.  @Valhalla_Heathen  How interesting. How are you allowed to stay there?
    4
  59.  @itsnick37  I don’t think he’s even divorced yet! They’re getting way ahead of things IMO.

  60.  @HiltonRayKennedyIII  Hi Hilton. You could obtain Mexican citizenship if you wanted to, right, and have dual citizenship? My friend was born in Mexico. His mom is Mexican; dad was American. The dad had a business in Mexico, married his mom, and they had five kids. He never bothered to get their US citizenship. So irresponsible. Then he died. The mom had a terrible time securing their US citizenship.
    3
  61.  @Closereveryday  Again, there was nothing to indicate the shorts were provocative. I was imagining preppy-type Bermuda shorts. It’s just that at a certain age, our legs don’t look nice, and she shouldn’t have to look undignified to work there. I worked at an upscale restaurant of the type she aspires to. The uniform included our own khaki pants. One girl was short and roly-poly. She very confidently informed the owner that “not everyone has the figure for pants” and she’d like to wear a skirt.

  62.  @amandamalone2688  Employee discount. Or ask management for discount because you’re avoiding absenteeism.
    3
  63.  @rangerannie5636  Sorry. It’s awful. My late grandma’s wedding bad was stolen from me. It was just a gold band with a design. Not worth much. But it was worth more than zero, so I guess it was worth it to a loser to steal it.
    3
  64.  @more2me100  I agree with mothers staying home. But Hilton wasn’t ready to provide for a family.
    3
  65.  @BlackCondor88  It’s sad that he tore his shoulder up and he could only go to college with a basketball scholarship. There should be insurance for college athletes’ injuries, to cover the cost of finishing their undergrad - assuming they were academically qualified in the first place.
    3
  66.  @Judy-mw7mo  She was actually acquiescing to Hilton telling her she’d have to take care of the babies so he could sleep, otherwise he’d be useless at work. Yes, working on the lowest rung of a food service vendor at Google doesn’t entitle you to live like the techies.
    3
  67.  @rhay8245  He’ll get back every dime he pays and more, with the EITC, Child Tax Credit, WIC, and probably food stamps. I find him very likeable and respect him for working hard. I do not respect his knocking up an 18 year old and bringing her here. He’s burdening the taxpayers and causing himself hardship.
    3
  68.  @raindropmangoes  It wasn’t a decision. It was “failing to plan = planning to fail”.
    3
  69.  @janiceschroeder9908  José is the guy who married Elizabeth, the high school counselor.
    3
  70. Yep. You can’t just have kids willy-nilly. And if you invest $10K in an S&P 500 index fund for your newborn, he will not have to save for retirement.

  71.  @_nimrod92  She wouldn’t have brought them through the airport. Born here, they’d be US citizens, entitled to everything.  I’m a half-breed, but my family is far removed from that dynamic. My grandma was born in Arizona three years after it became part of the U.S. Her parents didn’t cross the border; the border crossed them. My grandpa was born in Mexico in 1913 and grew up going back and forth between El Paso and Chihuahua. In my family, all of the girls were raised to become educated. We all have advanced degrees and a lot to lose by choosing the wrong man. In my opinion, and that of elder relatives still in El Paso, the border needs to be closed. Nice chatting with you!

  72.  @tidathery9787  Garages are not living space. Go to the city for approval if you think otherwise.
    2
  73.  @hollyrose6334  I think he might be flat, rather than calm. The most friendly, animated, and engaged we saw him was when they were out for drinks with their friends. And that might have been due to alcohol.
    2
  74.  @royh2618  Yikes. They can’t afford it. They can only squeak by with the same payment as Elizabeth was making on her parents’ house. And I wonder if her parents moved in with them. That had been the original plan.
    2
  75.  @ingridakerblom7577  I would love to visit Finland. One big difference is that in Finland you pay a lot more tax. We keep more of our own money and we’re responsible for ourselves. Socialist polices can only work in a homogenous society. In the U.S. we have the entire gamut of ethnicities and values. It’s common to encounter rudeness and disrespect for both people and property all day long.
    2
  76. It’s called a documentary. Yes, there have been numerous requests for a update.
    2
  77. First of all, don’t go to a retail store. They’ll inflate the price of a lower-quality stone to maximize profit while taking your whole budget. Diamonds are the biggest rip-off out there. Only naive people get caught up in this.
    2
  78.  @Judy-mw7mo  That was her response to his saying if she wanted him to get up with the babies, she’d need to work. She chose to get up. Yep, they had no business making kids.
    2
  79. I would also like new documentaries. I enjoy Emilia’s basic old-fashionedness. I’m in the LA area, and we don’t have her type here. Her foray into addiction makes me less sympathetic toward her, though.
    2
  80. Yes, they’re more expensive than the cost of raising a child. Even one who had to be in the NICU for months. 😂
    2
  81.  @wil7228  Their main concern is showing off on social media.
    2
  82. Smart. There are unmotivated young people working at my mailbox place year in and year out. If they acted like they has any capabilities, one of the customers would hire them. Lots of successful people have mail service there. They aren’t thinking.

  83.  @ifeifesi  Beer. Champagne taste on a beer budget.

  84.  @itsnick37  He was born in the U.S. He’s not allowed to work in Mexico. The U.S. is the only country that’s too dumb to enforce its borders and laws.
    1
  85.  @_nimrod92  Yes, we are mainstream, and nobody in my family has ever received anything from the government except the Medicare and Social Security they paid into. I’m not doing anything in particular for my family, I am just living as I was taught by my elders. I suppose I am honoring them, and I set the example for all of my younger cousins. 🥰
    1
  86.  @pukasonqo895  I read another comment that said they split up, she married someone else, and she had kids. They said it was on FB.
    1
  87.  @amandaupshaw5907  She contributed to the cost, she didn’t “pay for it”. And her choices were to contribute, or wear a ring that would embarrass her. She was primarily concerned about appearances and showing off, so she opted to contribute.
    1
  88.  @cestbonbon5961  That’s true about her being responsible. Her siblings should have participated and contributed. Maybe she was favored and spoiled, and they’re resentful, so they figure she’s now responsible for the parents. Yikes about José. I bet you’re right. Plus her parents could care for his son. My parents would not have allowed me to get involved with a man who had a kid.

  92. You’re supporting them by paying for the benefits and tax deductions they receive.
    1
  93.  @janiceschroeder9908  It’s not right for other tired, hardworking taxpayers to have to support them. Welfare was meant to keep widows from having to get jobs, so they could stay home and raise their children. Times have changed. Now it’s normal for mothers to work full-time. So there should be no more welfare.

  94.  @GoAgainstTheOdds  A flat affect is not a “calm demeanor”.

  95.  @aidashelby9931  This was ten years ago.

  96. Elizabeth acts like an idiot. She was spoiled and petulant when they bought her engagement rings, and a total b*tch in the car, badgering Jose about the house they looked at. She needs to grow up and keep things calm in the car. She shows no responsibility for being safe on the road. Her jumping around screaming about making an offer on the house was sickening. And I’ve got news: you don’t try to get your “forever” house in the first move. You buy what you can afford, build equity, increase your income, and then get something better.

  100. She picked him because she finds him hot.

  101.  @joybeavers5945  Exactly. Her sister can help her. So can her friend with the insurance agency.

  102. Pregnant girl with braces and a ridiculous, expensive manicure, probably acrylic nails. Who’s paying for that?

  103. He’s adorable.

  104. Yes, it’s nice to chew the fat with people.

  105.  @kb9826  Their rate was 3.8%.

  106.  @nordette  Look at her behavior every time it looks like she might not get what she wants.
    1
  107.  @britlew5933  Having watched all the episodes, I think she’s a b*tch. She’s only cute when she’s getting what she wants. She couldn’t possibly be as kind, patient, and generous to his son as shown.
    1
  108.  @hollyrose6334  Regarding the house purchase, she said the ZIP Code in Montgomery County adds another $20,000. Well, her engagement ring was $15,000. We all make choices.

  109.  @cberryman9189  Americans confuse engagement rings with cocktail rings.

  110.  @crimpers5543  Thats one way to look at it. 😂

  111.  @tidathery9787  They should clean it up and bus everybody back to their home states.

  113.  @Closereveryday  There was nothing to indícate the shorts were sleazy. Just in poor taste at her age.

  114.  @_nimrod92  I think so, too. Hilton is a US citizen, he’s smart, motivated, hard-working, and has a kind heart. If he were my son, I would have taught him not to get into this situation.
