Cardi B on Her Spending Habits

Grammy-winning rapper Cardi B recently explained her surprising preference for spending money at strip clubs over purchasing private jet travel. In a new interview, the artist detailed why she’s reconsidered frequent private flights.

“I Rather Spend the Money on the Strip Club”

Cardi B stated she isn’t interested in flying first class or investing in private jets. “One thing about it: I do not care to get on a nice, good Delta first class. I don’t give a f–k,” she said. “One thing I hate is spending money. I rather spend the money on the strip club than spend it on a f–king jet. That’s one thing that I do not like.”

Cost Concerns and Practicality

The rapper acknowledged she occasionally uses private jets, but only when it’s financially sensible. She admitted to sometimes wanting to avoid airport security, but the rising costs have made her reconsider. “Sometimes I do take jets, but it really has to make sense,” Cardi B explained.

Rising Jet Prices Post-Pandemic

Cardi B highlighted the significant increase in private jet prices since the COVID-19 pandemic. “Why are you spending $35,000 — around 2020 — to go to New York from L.A.? Now it’s probably like $60,000,” she stated. “The jet prices doubled, honey. That ain’t no more. $35,000 is more like New York to Miami. That was something I definitely cut back on.”
