The music mogul explained that he could afford luxury items. He mentioned that he could buy any car or even a private jet if he wanted.
However, Don Jazzy said he prefers to invest in things that will last. He believes that gaining knowledge and skills is better than spending on material things.

Don Jazzy also encouraged Nigerians to avoid idleness. He told them to find something meaningful to do that will benefit their future.
“Don’t just be useless,” he said. “Go and acquire a skill, whatever skill it is, because every skill can be useful in this AI and internet age.”
He explained that one does not need to be a doctor, lawyer, or engineer to succeed. He said that even skills like carpentry can now bring great opportunities.
Don Jazzy emphasized that technology has changed the way people work. He added that those who learn new skills will have a better chance to succeed in the digital world.
