Comedienne Elsa Majimbo, widely recognized for her candid and often humorous TikTok videos, recently made headlines with her outspoken views on financial matters. Known for her bold statements, Majimbo addressed the topic of wealth and the behavior of those who are financially less well-off.
In a recent video, Majimbo delivered a sharp message about money and contribution. She emphasized her belief that financial status should dictate one’s involvement in discussions about money, saying, “Money talks, wealth whispers, and broke people should shut up. You have no business contributing to something you have never experienced.” Her statement underscored her view that individuals who lack financial resources should refrain from commenting on or participating in discussions about financial contributions or wealth.
Majimbo further quoted rapper Nicki Minaj, reinforcing her point by stating, “Broke people should never laugh,” and advising those in less favorable financial situations to focus on their own challenges. Her advice was clear: those who are struggling financially have their own significant concerns to address and should not engage in conversations about wealth or financial matters that they are not directly involved in.
Earlier this year, Majimbo made headlines for another reason when she claimed that her substantial wealth had led to an unexpected investigation. She recounted an incident during a shopping spree when her bank accounts were temporarily frozen as part of a fraud investigation. Majimbo described her reaction to the situation in a TikTok video, humorously highlighting her surprise at being suspected of fraudulent activity simply because of her high spending.
She shared her experience, noting that she was asked to provide documentation to verify her identity and confirm that she was not involved in any illicit activities. Majimbo’s reaction to the inquiry was one of incredulity, as she remarked, “Fraudulent activity? I am just rich. Are you joking?” Her comments reflected both her astonishment at the situation and her confidence in her financial status.
Majimbo’s candid commentary on wealth, coupled with her humorous take on the scrutiny she faced, has continued to engage and entertain her followers, further establishing her as a prominent and outspoken voice on social media.
