Money TikTok ideas & trends this week

The fastest-growing money TikTok in the sample is @melrobbins’s “The biggest financial decision you'll ever make may be who you marry.” at 74K views a day (223K views in 3 days). The median video gets 1.7K views a day, so the leader is running at about 42× the typical pace. 14 of the top 22 run over a minute; the median length is 79 seconds. 21 of 22 use original audio or a voiceover instead of a named track, and no track appears in more than one video — videos without a named track account for 100% of the sample’s views. Beyond the hashtags we search by, the most common tag is #financialliteracy (9 videos).

How to use this page: start with the #financialfreedom theme below and open three of the examples. Note what happens in the first second, how long the video runs and whether the sound is a track or a voiceover, then film your own version in your setting, with your angle. Aim for over a minute, the most common length among the leaders. A voiceover or live sound is a safe default here: 95% of these videos use no named track.

How to pick: pair one or two broad tags people already browse, such as #personalfinance and #financialliteracy, with two or three that name your exact format or topic. In this sample some of the best-performing narrower tags were #investing (3 videos, 124K average views), #budgeting (3 videos, 104K average views), #savingmoney (3 videos, 55K average views). The TikToks here used a median of 5 hashtags. Generic tags like #fyp or #viral are left out: they say nothing about the topic. Tags marked “search tag” are the ones we use to find videos, so their counts are inflated by how we sample.
