Why You Need to Start Pimping Your Purse

Forget saving for a rainy day. I want you to make it rain with intention.

Welcome to a long overdue conversation. Pimping your purse.

Today, I’m pulling the cover off the lie society’s been telling us and tossing it into the wind. Disposable income? That phrase needs to be buried next to dial-up internet and Blockbuster memberships. Money is not disposable; it’s about leveraging it in ways that allow you to trade the hustle culture for more freedom and flexibility.

Ask anyone out here pimping their purse, and they’ll tell you money isn’t just for spending. It’s for stacking, flipping, and multiplying. It’s not about getting more, it’s about controlling it better so it works for you. That’s the shift. I’m flipping the script, not just rethinking money.
And we, you and I, are going to reprogram how you command it. Because the real flex is becoming what I call a Money Madam.

And no, I’m not talking about running some underground hustle with a feather boa and a house full of secrets. I’m talking about upgrading your relationship with money from a clingy situationship to a strategic partnership.

A Money Madam doesn’t chase coins; she sends money out to make her more money. She’s not waking up at 5 a.m., grinding till she’s over-caffeinated and so wired she can’t sleep unless passing out. No, the Madam is sipping her tea and relaxing because her money is the one clocking in. She is leveraging the coins in her purse.

Let’s get into it now that you understand where I’m coming from.

Society Sold Us the Wrong Story

From the time we could count change at the candy store, we’ve been taught that money is something to earn, spend, and repeat. And if we were lucky, we could save a little. Throw in a 401k, and they pat you on the back like you’re financially woke.

The bigger issue is that we are programmed to spend our income, rather than using it to build leverage. It’s purposely called “disposable income” to make you feel good about spending what you worked hard for. It is as if the whole point of earning is to immediately part with it.

Let me ask you this: When was the last time you threw something valuable away on purpose?

Exactly.

You Don’t Need a Budget—You Need a Business Mind

Budgets are fine. Necessary, even. But a budget alone won’t change your financial status. What you need to do is stop treating money as if it were fragile and delicate. Start treating it like your number one hustler on the stroll. Your income should be out in the world earning, negotiating, flipping deals, making babies (hello, compound interest)—not sitting in your checking account waiting to get spent on Amazon deals and drive-thru lattes.

Every dollar has a job when you step into your role as a Money Madam. And none of those jobs involve disappearing quietly into the night.

Instead of asking, “Can I afford this?” start asking, “How can this dollar make me five more?” Money should not just buy things; it should buy you time, choices, and peace of mind. That’s livin’ the Money Madam life.

Every Dollar Should Be on Payroll

You wake up, stretch, and scroll through yesterday’s memes, and your businesses pay you overnight. Not the type you run. The kind you own. Public companies, across industries, cutting you dividend checks just for holding your stake. That’s income you didn’t chase, didn’t clock in for, and didn’t have to answer emails about.

This isn’t fantasy. It’s the result of pimping your purse instead of babying it. You don’t need to be wealthy to get started. What you need is Strategy, Consistency, and Boldness.

For me, that power move came through multi-business ownership. I won’t go too deep yet; that’s a separate conversation. But think of it this way, I’m collecting businesses like chess pieces in my empire, not by running them, but by owning slices of companies that pay me to sit still. They handle the hustle, and I collect the dividends. No team meetings. No 3 a.m. emails. Just ownership with benefits.

That’s freedom, flexibility, and a sense of wealth.

If that’s got your curiosity going, and you’re new to the investing game, start with Want to Grow Your Money?. It breaks things down and sets you up to confidently begin making moves.

Don’t Just Save—Circulate With Intention

By the way, I also believe in saving, but not hoarding your money. Hoarding money is like storing your dancers in the dressing room while the club is popping. Money should be out working, not hiding.

A true Money Madam isn’t scared to invest; she’s not ruled by fear or stuck in scarcity thinking. She’s strategic. She looks her money in the eye and asks, “Where will you serve me best?” Is it a high-yield account? Dividend-paying stocks? Maybe crypto, ETFs, or something with long-term muscle? Wherever it goes, it’s going with purpose.

And let’s not forget: circulating money with intention doesn’t mean spending blindly; it means spending where it yields financial returns.

No, You Don’t Need Another Job

Do you know what’s not a flex? Having five jobs and still being exhausted. Hustling for money 24/7 while it sits around like a lazy houseguest is not it. You were not born to be a hamster on the grind wheel. That’s not financial freedom; it’s just labor with a glam filter.

Instead of always asking how to earn more with your time, ask how to earn more with your resources. Systems beat sweat every time. If your money isn’t earning while you’re sleeping, meditating, traveling, or watching “Living Single” reruns, we’ve got work to do.

Stop Being Loyal to Struggle

Listen, money is not moral. It’s not good or bad. It’s a tool. A powerful, flexible, delicious tool. Too many of us have been taught to be loyal to the hustle, loyal to lack, loyal to survival mode. Let me free you today: you don’t owe struggle anything.

Every minute you stay in the “work for it and spend it” loop, you delay the wealth you were meant to hold. Here, we don’t play small, and we don’t let fear babysit our financial decisions.
We command, create, and capitalize.

So What’s the Next Move to Pimping Your Purse?

Let’s get practical. Becoming a Money Madam starts with a few key shifts:

  • Mindset First: Stop thinking of money as something you “get rid of” and start thinking of it as a resource you grow.
  • Educate Yourself: Pick one wealth-building tool and dive in. Real estate. Digital assets. Licensing. Or, like me, take the multi-business route and turn public ownership into income.
  • Automate Your Income: Discover ways to earn money that don’t require your physical presence. Set it up once, and earn again and again.
  • Audit Your Circle: Surround yourself with folks who talk about assets, not just outfits. Wealthy energy is contagious.
  • Put Every Dollar to Work: If your money isn’t pulling its weight, it’s time to reassign it—or cut it off like a bad employee.

Final Word from the Money Madam Herself

Let me say this plainly: You are the boss. Your money is the employee. If it’s not producing, that’s a performance issue.

No more worshipping hustle culture.

No more pride in being “busy.”

And definitely no more throwing your income away as if it were disposable.

It’s time to get bold. Strategic. Empowered. It’s time to become the woman who builds wealth while living well. A Money Madam who makes her dollars dance—even when she’s offstage.

Because financial freedom doesn’t come from chasing; it comes from owning.

And baby, it’s your time to own everything.
