Cardi B is determined to “manage [her] money correctly”.
The 30-year-old star – who is one of the world’s best-selling rappers – has insisted via Twitter that she always tries to be responsible with her money.
The ‘Bodak Yellow‘ hitmaker wrote on the micro-blogging platform: “We going through a recession…..Merry Christmas [Christmas tree emoji] (sic)”
One of Cardi’s followers subsequently questioned the rapper, suggesting that she’s in a privileged position.
They wrote in response: “Says the rapper worth 40 million.”
Cardi then pointed out that in spite of her wealth, she still has “bills” and other “responsibilities”.
The chart-topping star – who has Kulture, four, and Wave, 15 months, with her husband Offset – said: “I’m worth more then that and guess what ? If I don’t save, work and budget I could lose it too! What makes you think that no matter how much money you got you can’t lose it all if you don’t manage your money correctly. I too have bills, responsibilities and people I have to help. (sic)”
Cardi worked as a stripper before finding success in the music business, and she previously admitted to being happier before she found fame.
The ‘WAP‘ hitmaker – who married Offset in 2017 – explained: “One positive thing is that, my family, whatever they want, they get. Everything that I want to buy, I can get. I don’t have to worry so much about my future.
“One negative thing is that, even though I’m happy, I feel like I was a little bit happier two or three years ago when I had less money.
“I had less people who had opinions about my life. I felt like my life was mine.
“Now I feel like I don’t even own my life. I feel like the world owns me.”
