What are Labubus, and why are grown adults spending (and making 👀) thousands on them?
In this episode, we break down the Labubu economy: how these tiny collectibles have become a global obsession, what they sell for, and why some say they’re a sign of a looming recession.
From custom accessories to tattoos and even press-on nails, we explore the bizarre and booming ways people are cashing in on their Labubus!
If you’ve ever thought, “Wait…can this thing make me money?”, then this one’s for you. Tune in to learn more!
