The American singer and actress Cardi B has revealed she once worked working as a stripper, knowing that she would earn more money than in any other job.

That led her to drop out of college because her main motivation over the years has been to make money, and she has succeeded.

No other job paid as well for the short hours, but something she won't forget happened to her because of him.

A boyfriend she had met while stripping scammed her by spending her savings on drugs.

"When I was 20 years old," she said on the Lip Service Podcast. "I used to say this so much: 'I'm 20 years old, and I have USD 20,000.'

"And that used to hype me up 'cause I worked hard for it."

"Like, I f**kin' shaked [sic] my a** real hard for it.

"This n***a took my f**king money. He took my money and did not answer the phone for the whole day [when I called to ask about it].

"I was going insane, and then he was like, 'Yeah, I took the money because I am in California getting weed to sell."

The incident scarred her and is the reason she decided not to get involved in relationships with "messed up guys" again.

Her current husband, Offset, certainly doesn't fit into that category because what attracted her to him was the advice and connections he gave her, even though he has made a fortune in hip hop.
