Actress Beverly Afaglo has offered advice to her fellow creative industry players, urging them to invest in businesses as a means to generate income when they are not actively working.
According to the actress, with an increasing number of individuals entering the Showbiz sector, actors may not receive daily calls for work opportunities. However, by having a business, they can maintain a steady source of income.
“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 has also launched Traffic Shawarma franchise.
“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.”
