Is Kim Plath’s real work in the medical field?
Welcome to Plathville fans had the opportunity to get to know Kim Plath and the rest of the big family. Through the TLC show, the family was able to earn money in exchange for fans participating in their daily lives and all of their ups and downs. Additionally, the family welcomes guests to their former property through AirBnB.
Of course, fans wonder how the family paid the bills before they rose to fame on TLC. With nine children, there is enough to pay for. Turns out Kim’s job is in the medical field.
What does Kim Plath do for work?
According to screen rant, Kim is a naturopathic doctor. Naturopathic Journals, notes that naturopathic doctors are not “registered or licensed in Georgia to practice naturopathy.” The source also states that they are not allowed to use “doctor” as a title. So technically, Kim shouldn’t call herself a naturopathic doctor. However, she uses the term to describe herself.
According to zippya, the median salary for a naturopathic doctor is $135,000 per year. We don’t know exactly how much money Kim brings in. However, holistic medicine is popular, so its customer base may only increase.
Barry also works and has held the same position for two decades. He is a transport planner in a private company.
So between the two of them, as well as their TLC show and their AirBnB, it looks like Kim and Barry are doing pretty well and are able to support their large family.
Did she go to college?
Fans were shocked to hear Kim and Barry speak negatively about college on the show. They shared how they thought their children could learn more about the world around them. For this reason, they do not see the point of children “learning the knowledge of the head”. Although Kim and Barry don’t seem to like the idea of their kids going to college, the Plathville matriarch did attend Florida State University. While in college, she majored in music. The family then created a group. As stated on the show, the Plaths are musically gifted.
