Popular Senegalese-American singer and producer Aliaune Damala Badara Akon Thiam, better known by his stage name Akon, has asserted that difficulties always outweigh comforts when it comes to money.
The musician bemoaned the difficulties that come with wealth in a radio interview.
Akon said “Money does not necessarily buy happiness as it largely depends on what makes one happy.
“People who have money do not have time as it makes you lose yourself and takes you away from your family.
“Money brings you more problems than it brings comfort. You lose yourself. You can’t find time for your family. That’s no comfort.”
The 49-year-old musician continued by saying that if lack of money prevents people from finding time for their families, there is no consolation..
