## Summary

Brandon “Bug” Hall said the shame he felt after a 2020 arrest prompted him, after months of struggling, to adopt a “vow of poverty” with his family. The former child actor described it as a way to keep himself on track, using money as little as possible.

Hall said he relapsed after 12 years of sobriety, following work on a television project while his family was away; the 2020 charge was later dismissed. He and his wife, Jill DeGroff, have five children and live near Mountain Home, Arkansas, where he says their monthly bills are about $300. Hall has raised nearly $30,000 through a GoFundMe after setting a $2,000 goal ahead of the arrival of their sixth child.
