What Jasmine's Startling Confession About Her Finances Means

Jasmine Has Been Skimping To Save Money

It is surprising to see Jasmine say she can't afford a $71 cake for her daughter. However, some of her previous posts indicate that there may be some truth to her claim. A few months ago, Jasmine gained massive popularity on Cameo, becoming one of the top 10 creators on the platform and celebrating this achievement on Instagram. Unfortunately, her success on Cameo was short-lived. A few weeks later, she experienced a major setback and dropped out of the top 50 Cameo creators list, suggesting that she wasn't receiving as many requests as before.

Jasmine's recent confession isn't the first time she has discussed her financial struggles in the United States.

Jasmine also showed some cosmetic items she had purchased, noting that she would be doing her own beauty treatments at home because she could no longer afford to go to a salon. In April 2025, Jasmine posted an Amazon link for fans who wanted to support her in buying essential items for her daughter.

While Jasmine may be facing financial difficulties, it is surprising that she says she can't afford a $71 cake for her daughter. She charges $55 for a personalized video on Cameo, so she would only need to complete two messages to earn enough money for the cake. It seems that Jasmine shared these updates to evoke an emotional response from her followers, possibly to encourage more financial support from them. The 90 Day: The Last Resort cast member's main goal is to save money, which may explain why she is unable to spend money on items like cake or makeup.

90 Day: The Last Resort airs Mondays at 8 p.m. EDT on TLC.
