Inside Malaikah Raja’s Luxurious $230K Monthly Allowance: A Dubai Housewife’s Spending Secrets

Malaikah Raja, a Dubai-based social media influencer with over a million followers on TikTok, has taken transparency to new heights—or perhaps depths—by detailing her extravagant monthly allowance that totals a jaw-dropping $230,000. In a world where reality and influencer fantasy often blur, Raja’s candid breakdown reveals how she allocates her funds, and it’s nothing short of eye-popping.
In her viral TikTok video, which has racked up over 6.7 million views, Raja distinguishes between her “general shopping allowance” of $5,000 and a colossal $15,000 earmarked for “luxury and designer” purchases. One can only assume that her closet resembles a high-end boutique, complete with gold jewelry and sparkling handbags showcased in the video. But wait, there’s more! Raja reveals that her investment properties also contribute to her budget, costing around $200,000 monthly in off-plan payments.
When it comes to personal care, Raja isn’t skimping either—$1,000 for weekly massages and $500 for manicures and pedicures are just the tip of her self-care iceberg. Hair and health treatments come in at a staggering $8,000 monthly, while makeup and skincare take another $2,000 from her allowance. Talk about a skincare routine that could fund a small country’s healthcare system!
And if you think Raja’s spending stops at beauty, think again. Food and date nights are on her husband’s tab—unlimited, no less—because apparently, he prefers her with a little extra weight. “If I don’t spend the money from my allowance, then it goes into my savings,” she cheekily adds, pointing out her financial savvy in a world where many struggle to save even a fraction of their income.
Raja’s life isn’t just about spending; she juggles motherhood with caring for her three-year-old son and her newborn daughter, born recently. In a past post, she humorously outlined the “charges” she levied on her husband for their new baby, which included a pink Mercedes G Wagon and a $2 million home with renovations. It seems that for Raja, the line between motherhood and extravagance is as thin as a designer handbag strap.
In a time when many are tightening their belts due to rising living costs, Raja’s lifestyle serves as both a source of fascination and incredulity. While influencers often curate an image of wealth and luxury, Raja’s unabashed openness provides a peek behind the curtain, leaving us all to wonder: what would we do with that much allowance? Spoiler alert: probably not what she does.
