Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
Actress Beverly Afaglo is advising other creatives working in the field to invest in businesses as a way to diversify their sources of income.
In a recent interview monitored by tigpost.co, she underlined how important it is to take this action to maintain financial security when acting possibilities are scarce.
Afaglo notes that while more people are pursuing careers in show business, actors might not get calls for work every day.
But they can ensure a steady stream of income by taking on business ventures. She goes on, to give instances from the entertainment industry where stars like 50 Cent and Jay Z have succeeded as company owners in addition to their roles as entertainers.
“My advice to them is to invest in business because after the fame and everything, people still look up to you for many things and that’s why you have to tap into this.
“In Hollywood, we have the likes of 50 Cent, Jay Z being owners of companies. 50 Cents has water, Jay Z has different businesses. You need to invest into something and definitely because they love you, they will be able to be part of you and it works like this because at the end of the day, it will get to a point where you won’t be called everyday. Younger ones are coming, there might not be roles for you, how you look, how you act, but when you have invested into something, then it’s definitely going to help,” Beverly Afaglo stated.
Afaglo highlights how important it is to pursue entrepreneurship because it not only offers financial security but also helps one stay relevant outside of the spotlight.
Beverly Afaglo just opened the Traffic Shawarma franchise, following her guidance.
She conveyed confidence in her brand, thinking that her devoted following would back her endeavours since they respect her authority.
“I believe people trust my brand and anything I put out there till now, people know that whatever I bring into the system is legit and so far they are happy.”
The message of Afaglo emphasizes the need for industry participants to invest in long-term financial well-being through sustainable income-generating ventures and to go beyond short-term fame.
