A curious custom of Bolivia, involving our national currency, went viral on TikTok. It consists of the fact that when a young person turns 18 years of age, a great party is held for him and he must be given money for his future. The particular thing is that the present must hang from the body of the party.
The user @limberg_n shared some videos of the incredible party that they organized for Yeizon for his 18th birthday.
In the footage you can see the young man dressed in what appears to be a suit of bills of one thousand Argentine pesos. In addition, in the first seconds the godfather of the birthday boy, also formally dressed, hangs another batch of bills on the boy.
The generous man, before delivering the gift, confirmed to the presenter that it was an incredible sum of 150 thousand pesos. Between music, greetings and photos, the young man began to enjoy his new income.
Bolivian custom in Argentina: he turned 18 and his godfather gave him $150,000 in $1,000 bills, the equivalent of a month’s rent.

However, the exchange rate that governs Argentina gave rise to the jokes of Internet users. “Changes it to dollars and has 10 $100 bills”, “Because many say it, Argentine silver is worth nothing. obviously it works. Others not even a thousand pesos are not being able to give away, or not?”, “How cute, the important thing is the gesture, not the monetary value. I congratulate you”, were just some of the reactions.
The viral video obtained more than 5 million views on TikTok, and between both social networks it exceeded 300 thousand “Likes”. Argentine users were not oblivious to the strange tradition of the neighboring country.
