8 Eye-Opening Details of a Day in the Life of a Millionaire's Wife

It's no secret that the ultra-wealthy's daily lives are filled with eye-popping consumption, rife with elite products and incredible services that we mere mortals can barely dream about. But even the most jaded luxury voyeur might get the vapors after seeing what a 23-year-old Dubai millionaire's wife spends on an average day. On her TikTok account, Linda Andrade posted a video titled "How much I spent in a day as a millionaire's wife." The short answer: $16,540—and that's just at the mall. Here's how she did it.

Andrade, an American who now lives in Dubai and is married to a cryptocurrency trader, begins the video by unboxing her "daily antidepressant Chanel bag," which is gold and cost $7,000. It's unclear whether she buys herself a Chanel bag each day to stave off the blues or simply wears this one. What we know: Wellbutrin is much cheaper, even without insurance.

"Can you believe we don't have a jacuzzi?" Andrade says. Um, no? It's also remarkable—although not absolutely insane—that she next drops $500 on a detox lymphatic-drainage massage. Those spa treatments can be expensive. But for the record, that's $7,500 spent before breakfast.

Next, Andrade treated herself to a "24K gold coffee," which cost $80. "I am obsessed with these," she says, although she doesn't detail why. "This was my breakfast, so I am budgeting there, because I didn't buy any food," she adds.

Andrade's next stop is a spa in a high-end Dubai mall, where she gets a $500 touch-up on her manicure. "I didn't get long nails—again, I budgeted there," she says.

To get from store to store within the indoor mall, Andrade doesn't tax her feet—she hires someone to drive her in what appears to be a mini Bentley. "I just don't want to walk, the mall is so big," she says. Total: $200.

Next, Andrade decided to purchase a second gold Chanel "Antidepressant bag." She explained the splurge: "Might as well."

Feeling snacky after the arduous morning, Andrade ordered her "favorite" caviar sushi—a typical-looking sushi roll dressed with sauce and caviar—for $120.

"Lastly, I stocked up on my custom perfume," said Andrade. "This cost $420. Nobody else will smell like you, 'cause it's literally custom."  She concluded: "That's pretty much all I did today—nothing crazy. All that I spent was $16,540."

In another TikTok, Andrade listed the "best things about being with a millionaire"—besides, of course, the money. One: If the couple gets into a fight, he always "apologizes with his credit card."  Andrade contends that "rich men are more fun" because they "aren't as stressed," "every day is an occasion," and because she doesn't have to work, she has unlimited free time for herself.
