Two-time world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua has given his fans a sobering reminder that being a billionaire involves more than just being successful in sports or entertainment.
Joshua, a Nigerian-British professional boxer, advised other athletes and entertainers to put more effort into developing long-term enterprises and enhancing their financial literacy rather than focussing on the glitz and glitter of celebrity.
On his Snapchat page, Joshua wrote,
“For any to reach billionaire status, it will not be through sports, music or entertainment.
“Don’t get lost in the hype, focus on the sustainability, books and business ethics.”
