Success and wealth
Wealthiness, success, or simply a large sum of money may be referred to as a "bag." Rappers often use bag in their songs, sometimes in the phrases "grinding for a bag" or "chasing the bag," which describe hard work to achieve success and get rich.
Various rappers have described monetary success as a bag, including Cardi B, Gucci Mane, and Drake. The term eventually crossed over from the rap community to the broader public in 2020. Now, you may also hear teenagers and young adults use the slang.
For example, your friend might tweet "Rise n grind for that bag!" early in the morning, accompanied by a pic of the sunrise. Or, your brother may post a TikTok about chasing the bag at his job.

Some people in the United Kingdom use the term bag to refer to £1000. The term is derived from the phrase "bag of sand," which is rhyming slang for "a grand."
What is rhyming slang?
Rhyming slang is a form of slang that is common in the UK, Ireland, and Australia. It involves transforming a common word into a multi-word phrase, the last word of which rhymes with the original word. Then, when using the rhyming phrase to refer to the original word, you must omit the rhyming word, to ensure no one will ever know what the heck you are talking about. This is how "a grand" can become "a bag" (grand → bag of sand → bag).
