The 26-year-old influencer elucidated that her income, derived primarily from brand advertising and sales on Snapchat, enabled her to procure a Range Rover Evogue and a Range Rover Velar for her mother.
Boateng has earned a reputation as one of Ghana's foremost Snapchat influencers, showcasing a lifestyle seemingly fueled by her online endeavors.
"Everything I do now is surreal to people because they believe that it is impossible for women to make their own money. It is what it is," Boateng asserted, addressing societal skepticism about her financial independence.
When queried by host Delay about her mother's awareness of the source of her wealth, Boateng revealed, "my mother watches me work, she helps me and takes orders for me. Sometimes the money passes through her account so I don’t have to explain, she knows."
In response to Delay's inquiry about how she managed to procure the vehicles and cash gift for her mother, Boateng confidently stated, "From Snapchat. It’s the only story, from snap story."
Offering insight into her monthly earnings as a Snapchat influencer, Boateng outlined, "I’m going to give you a little breakdown of what a month looks like for me averagely. I charge GH₵15,000 for ambassadorial deals. In a month, I take about 8 to 10 deals, so we are looking at GH₵120,000 to GH₵150,000 for ambassadorial deals only."
Boateng emphasized her collaborations with various brands such as Pizzaman and Intimate Queen, which provide consistent income streams alongside instant ads, location ads, and her personal business ventures.
Meanwhile, Boateng expressed indifference towards her father, stating that he had not prioritized her during her upbringing. She asserted that her father's absence in her current affluent life does not concern her.
