New money is like steroids for the ego. Ever met someone who went from broke to balling overnight? It’s like they suddenly grew financial muscles, and trust me, they LOVE flexing. Today’s case study? None other than Honourable Dan, our very own rags-to-riches champ.

This guy went from struggling to pay his share of rent to driving a big SUV and calling shots in the house. But as they say, money doesn’t just change your pocket, it changes your personality too. Let’s break down Dan’s new-money antics.

From roommate to ruler
Before money came knocking, Dan was just another guy in the house. Fast forward to now, and he’s acting like he owns the building. First order of business? Seizing the master bedroom, because apparently, financial upgrade comes with a side of entitlement. He’s bossing the other flatmates around, making decisions like a board chairman. To be fair, when Donatus and Willie were financially up, they treated him the same way. So maybe Dan is just serving cold revenge… with a sprinkle of arrogance.

Parking wars
What’s new money without a shiny SUV? Dan got one, and suddenly, the parking lot is a battlefield. He told Prosper, the gateman, to reserve a specific spot ONLY for his car. Imagine poor Bros Nduka’s shock when Prosper tried to stop him from parking there. The man nearly lost it. The audacity? Peak new-money behaviour. Someone needs to remind Dan it’s a shared compound, not his private estate.

Dan the lover boy
Ah yes, the money-flirtation equation. It never fails. Dan has taken his romantic game to premium level. Tiwa, the landlord’s daughter, is living her best life—designer bags, soft life, and even her parents are now on Team Dan. Remember when her dad hated Dan being around her? Now he’s practically rolling out the red carpet. But here’s where it gets messy: Dan isn’t stopping at Tiwa,he is also going for Queendaline. Yes, THE Queendaline. Even when Dan was broke, he juggled these two women. Now, with deep pockets, he’s going extra hard. Talk about Olympic-level multitasking.

Unreliable decisions
When the money high kicks in, logic often takes a back seat. Dan, in a bid to assert power, agreed to let Ubong bring another person into the already cramped flat. And guess what this new guy’s name is? Unreliable. (No, we’re not joking.) It gets worse! He has vowed NOT to leave the flat. So now the house is full, tensions are high, and all because Dan wanted to show he’s the king decision-maker.

Meet Unreliable

Not all of Dan’s antics can be blamed on his bank account. Maybe this was his true nature all along, and money just gave him the confidence to unleash it. Either way, one thing is certain: we haven’t seen the last of his drama. Want to know what he does next? Don’t miss My Flatmates, weekdays at 7 PM on Africa Magic Showcase.
