Renowned Nigerian music producer Michael Ajereh, popularly known as Don Jazzy, has revealed that despite being wealthy enough to afford private jets and luxury cars, he chooses to invest in acquiring valuable skills particularly forex trading.

In a viral interview with Habby FX shared on YouTube on Sunday, the Mavin Records boss explained that he has long had the financial means to buy any car or even a private jet but prioritizes meaningful investments and supporting those around him.

“I’ve been blessed enough for a long time to be able to afford any type of car I want or even buy a private jet, but I have more important things to take care of. Nothing beats investment,” he said.

Don Jazzy further emphasized that investment also means self-development, noting that he is currently learning forex trading as part of his personal growth journey.

“The forex that I’m learning now is an investment in myself. Tomorrow, it’s going to turn into something a skill I can use. Don’t just be useless. Go and acquire some skill,” he added.

He urged young people to focus on skill acquisition rather than depending solely on white-collar jobs, especially in the rapidly changing digital and AI-driven era.

“You don’t have to be a doctor, lawyer, or engineer. In this internet and AI age, a lot of jobs will disappear. Why not learn something tangible? Even carpentry or furniture making we still import tables and chairs from Turkey and China. If we had skilled people here, we could produce those things ourselves,” he advised.

The video has since gone viral, amassing over 32,000 engagements on X (formerly Twitter) and sparking widespread praise for Don Jazzy’s emphasis on personal development and practical skill-building.
