Man spends whopping RM50,000 just to qualify for TRX Premium Lounge
WHAT does it take for a person to have access to exclusive luxury? For one guy, it is RM50,000 worth of purchases just to be qualified for a membership in the TRX, The Premium Lounge.
Now, one would imagine the crazy load of shopping a person has to do to rack up a RM50,000 bill, and rightly so.
RM50,000 is enough to purchase an entry level car by cash or comfortably pay the deposit for a mid-priced home in the KL city centre.
Ini baru kaya yang sebenar. Sanggup spend RM50K semata nak masuk dalam TRX The Premium Lounge. Gilaaa 😭

The guy in the video had to do a whopping amount of shopping, and even then, it was not enough. According to him in the video, he finally reached the amount by making huge purchases at Chanel.
It sure brings out the Crazy Rich Asian vibes. But it appears our fellow netizens aren't impressed by all that burned money.
'I'd rather use the 50k to make my house better looking than the TRX Premium lounge,' said @AndyTalisman, and he has a point.
'So, the TRX is practising the caste system in India?' @arfhartoe wondered.
But netizen @neesely believed the money was not wasted since he was actually turning it into content.
However, what is the TRX Premium Lounge? Apparently there are three tiers to their Loyalty Programme, the Enthusiast, Insider and Inspirer.
For example, a person qualifies for the Insider after a minimum spending of RM10,000 in three receipts on the same day.
The guy in the video was attempting the Inspirer tier at RM50,000 in five receipts within 14 days, which allows him access to the lounge.
According to Tatler Asia, the lounge features contemporary interiors layered with warm textures, curated floral arrangements, and ambient lighting designed to evoke calm sophistication.
For Inspirer and Visionary members, the lounge provides an extensive suite of personalised privileges: all-day refreshments featuring artisanal selections, dedicated guest experience support, premium amenities including private facilities and a children's corner, plus complimentary gift wrapping services.
All that for RM50,000? Is it worth it or could we just head over to the nearest Thai massage parlour? —July 27, 2025
