Meet Roma Abdesselam, a professional ‘stay-at-home daughter’ who claims that spending Rs. 40 lakhs a day is like a ‘full time job’. The TikTok influencer recently sent her followers into a bit of a tizzy after sharing a video that showed the amount of money she spends in just a day.
In one of the videos, she is seen spending over $50,000 (almost Rs. 40 lakhs), on luxury items from Gucci, Dior, Chanel and Prada. A New Yorker through and through, the 26-year-old TikToker was recently quoted in a media report saying, “I’ve turned spending [my parents’] money as a stay-at-home daughter into a job, and that’s been very, very fun for me.”
With over 6,29,000 followers, Roma is a “stay at home” individual, a term that influential netizen often use when they don’t prefer saying that they are unemployed. Although prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, she did plan to launch her own skincare business, she still hasn’t come around to that.
What she has been doing though, is spending the yearly budget of a small city in a few days by getting expensive dresses from Louis Vuitton, handbags from Haute, expensive dinners at Cipriani, and of course, going to Saint Tropez and Mykonos when she wants to “take a break”.
If this is not ‘Waah life ho toh aisi!’, we don’t know what is.
The Facts of the Matter

Like a stay-at-home mother or father, the New Yorker also has a certain share of responsibilities she fulfills every day. The responsibility of spending thousands of dollars of his parents.

Spending Lakhs on Gucci, Dior, Chanel

She went on a shopping spree where she picked up stuff from the most luxurious brands including, Gucci, Dior, Chanel and Prada.
