Nigerian rap star, Erigga has dished some financial advice to Nigerians who live above their means or show off fake lifestyle on social media.
He stated that rich people invest and read, which is something many people living in poverty cannot do, hence why they are in different worlds.
The Hip Hop artiste highlighted that the reason many people remain impoverished is because as rich people are spending their money, the low-income earners also spend like them even when they do not invest the same way.
Erigga penned the advice via his Twitter account, as he dismissed the belief some people have that the reason they are broke and struggling is because of generational curses, adding that it is generational bad habit.
He wrote; “Rich people invest. You don’t invest. Rich people read. You don’t read. Rich people delay gratification. You don’t delay gratification.
But, when they spend, you want to spend too. When they flex, you want to flex too. When they party, you want to party too. And that is why you are poor. It has nothing to do with generational curses and everything to do with generational bad habits.”
