What does "baller" and "to the point" in this sentence mean?
Hi,

Here is an excerpt from an article in Business Insider:

"Everyone wants to live a carefree, happy and easy life, to fall in love and have amazing sex and relationships, to look perfect and make money and be popular and well-respected and admired and a total baller to the point that people part like the Red Sea when you walk into the room."

I looked up dictionaries, but I didn't get the definition of "baller". Also, "to the point" means "state directly", but it doesn't make any sense to me in the sentence above. Could you please help me out with this? Thank you very much.
