Post Malone Spends $500,000 a Year on Magic Cards
Why it might be smarter than you think
Yeah, you read that right.
Post Malone:
Rapper. Rockstar. Country Singer(?) Face tattoos.
$500,000 a year — on Magic: The Gathering cards.
Sounds crazy, right?
Until you dig deeper.
🤯 First, The Numbers
Post Malone is worth ~$45 million
He owns one Magic card worth over $2 million
He’s spent hundreds of thousands on collectible decks
He’s said it’s one of the few things that makes him feel peace and joy
🧠 What We Can Learn From It
This isn’t about Magic cards.
It’s about alignment between your money and what you truly value.
Here’s what Post is actually doing right:
He knows what he loves and unapologetically spends on it
He can afford it, and he’s not pretending to live below his means
He’s turned a passion into an investment (that $2m card could appreciate over time)
💥 The Lesson: Prioritize Joy, Not Judgement
Most people:
Spend tons of money on random crap to impress people they don’t even like
Feel guilty spending money on things that actually bring them joy
Don’t even know what they truly value — so their money just leaks out
Post Malone?
He’s clear.
Cards bring him peace.
So, he spends intentionally.
✅ How to Use This (If You Don’t Have $500k to Burn)
Ask yourself:
“What’s my version of Magic cards?”
“What spending makes me feel alive, grounded, or joyful — and am I budgeting for it?”
“Where am I spending to look rich, instead of feel fulfilled?”
You don’t need millions to be intentional.
You just need clarity.
🔁 Flip The Script
Stop cutting out $5 coffees.
Start cutting out mindless spending that doesn’t reflect who you are.
Post Malone’s not crazy for spending on what he loves.
You’re not crazy for wanting to do the same.
