Briefly News spoke with Fulufhelani Mashapha, a qualified actuarial analyst and financial guru, to explore the impact of public figures spending massive amounts on luxury items. She explained:

"There is nothing inherently wrong with purchasing a luxury car or high-end item, provided that you can afford both the initial cost and the long-term maintenance expenses within your financial means.
If your household income allows you to sustain these costs without compromising your financial stability or relying on credit, such a decision remains a personal choice.
However, financial challenges arise when an individual acquires luxury items without the means to sustain them. While social media may celebrate such purchases, the financial burden that follows can lead to significant stress."
