According to Page Six, Chip allegedly said that Drew was not greedy for money and that it is “God’s will.” “Money is boring… everyone has money,” he wrote in response to the Barstool Kentucky profile, asking him and his wife Joanna to stay away from Drew.

Fans and other followers did not like this response and countered the former host, who graduated from Baylor University.

“Said by someone who doesn’t need to worry about money,” one commented. Another more upset added: “Money is boring when you have tons of it, but what about the poor that Jesus defended? What about compassion and trying to help the helpless?”.

On the other hand, Chip asked people to follow his assistant on the X network so that he could make a deal with the person, promising to donate money to some social cause. He even offered to donate $100 to one of the users.



According to Yahoo Finance, Chip and his wife have approximately $50 million. The couple became famous between 2013 and 2018 on the HGTV show “Fixer Upper”.
