Counting money meme clips on Ghibliia

A man in a navy suit fanning bills and a French bulldog boss counting cash, both cut from original 10-second clips.

The man and the dog are AI-made originals: not customers, not celebrities, and not lifted from the classic GIF. The cash is prop money, mint green and cream with a wave pattern, no portraits and no readable numbers. Office boss and Dog boss were cut from two vertical 10-second clips made with Seedance 2.0 Fast for this trend at aiaigenerator.ai, each from a single photo.

We kept about 9 seconds of each, reframed them, adjusted colour and speed, and added the ghibliia.com mark in the top left. Nothing was mirrored. The music is the clip's own original track, not a trend song. Boss at his desk is an image only: the same man's portrait moved into a brighter office with image-to-image AI, which you can do yourself on Image. These samples cost this page no credits.

Office boss

A photo of a man with a grey-flecked beard in a grey sweater turns into a boss in a navy suit behind a desk piled with bundles. He holds the stack at chest height, glances down at it and back up with raised eyebrows; around 7 s he opens it into a fan in one hand and ends showing it to the camera with a pleased grin.

Dog boss

A photo of a brindle French bulldog turns into a boss in a black suit and tie, sitting in a leather armchair. It holds a stack in its paws with a dead-serious face, opens it around 5 s, ends with a fan in each paw and sticks its tongue out for a moment around 8 s.

The counting money meme started in Spanish

A Mexican CapCut template on November 1, 2026, then an English copy on November 4.

The reaction itself is old: a boss, a rich guy or a cartoon cat thumbing through cash, posted when payday hits or a bet comes in. What changed is that the AI version puts your face on the boss: dark suit, a desk full of bundles, a quick flip and a fan at the end.

Contando billetes

November 1, 2026: a Mexican TikTok account posts a CapCut template captioned “¡Cuenta billetes como un gran jefe!” (“count bills like a big boss!”). By November 7 it had 946,600 views, 29,300 likes and 11,600 shares, and the comments kept joking that the money was fake. #contandobilletes stood at 739 videos that day.

The English copy

November 4: an English version, “count stacks of money like a real boss”, goes up and reaches 207,300 views by November 7. The same day #countingmoney held 6,868 videos and 173.9 million views, old and new posts together. Figures from makeviral.ai.

The right photo for the counting money meme

Chest up, face to the camera, good light, no sunglasses.

Works

Your face is the only thing kept from the photo, so make it easy to see.

  • Chest or waist up
  • Facing the camera, sharp and well lit
  • A pet with its face and ears in view

Skip

Anything covering the face makes the boss look less like you.

Upload my photo →

  • Sunglasses or a cap over the face
  • Blurry, dark or far-away shots
  • Several people in one photo

Sharing your counting money meme

Check your face as the fan passes, then add music if you like.

Your face

Watch to the last second: when the fan comes up, the face above it should still be yours. If the stack suddenly changes thickness, extra fingers appear, or your dog grows hands instead of paws, make it again from a sharper photo.

The cash and the music

The bills are props with no numbers or bank logos; the joke is acting rich, not showing off real money. The clip comes with an original track; for something else, make one on Music. On top, one line of your own: “Me on payday” or “My dog after his raise”. More ideas in all video effects.

Counting money meme questions

What is the counting money meme?

A Mexican CapCut template posted on November 1, 2026 with the line “¡Cuenta billetes como un gran jefe!”. An English copy followed on November 4.

What kind of photo should I upload?

A sharp, well-lit shot from the chest up, looking at the camera, with no sunglasses.

No. It's prop money with no numbers or bank logos. Pretending to be rich is the whole joke.
