The rapper also decided to use her video to address the haters who claim that since she has a lot of money– an estimated net worth of $40 million, to be exact– she does not get to speak out about rising prices.
“Of course imma say something, ’cause if I think that s*** is crazy, I can only imagine what middle-class people or people in the hood are thinking,” Cardi noted.
Then, she even made a disclaimer about how celebrities truly stay wealthy. Spoiler alert: it is through budgeting.
And those stars who fail to take stock of their expenses are the ones who end up scraping pennies together.
“That just goes to show me when you become successful when you have money, you gonna go broke soon– because y’all are not budgeting,” Cardi said.
Finally, the star asked anyone with the power to reduce current consumer prices to bring them down.
If only a video from the star herself was powerful enough to make that happen. At least she tried, though, and is raising further awareness about the Consumer Price Index (CPI), right?
