Afrobeats singer Bella Shmurda has disclosed that his lavish lifestyle almost left him broke.
Speaking in an interview with YouTuber Korty EO, Bella Shmurda said supporting and funding his friends’ expensive lifestyles also took a toll on his finances.
The music star added that the experience forced him to rethink and improve his approach to managing money.
“I used to have a lot of money but I rushed things. I wish I was wise then. I was just buying things extravagantly, things I eventually had no need for,” he said.
“At this point, as I am getting new money, I have to think about every move I want to take. I was accommodating up to ten of my friends back then and we were all receiving female visitors. I bought three cars at once just so that my friends would go out with me in convoy. I was reckless,” he added.
Bella Shmurda advised his colleagues and fans to handle their finances wisely, warning that poor money management can lead to bankruptcy and hard lessons.
