Popular musician Phyno recently made headlines for his real estate investments, purchasing several houses on a terrace. While this move garnered congratulations from fans and fellow celebrities, one Nigerian critic expressed a different perspective.
The critic argued that investing in real estate, such as buying houses, might not be the wisest financial move. He believed that real estate is a long-term investment that could take a considerable amount of time to yield profits. Instead, he suggested that Phyno should redirect his funds into his music career.
According to this critic, creating a new album had the potential to generate significant revenue and a quicker return on investment than real estate. He pointed out that while owning property can provide long-term financial security, it can also tie up capital. In contrast, releasing new music can bring in immediate income through album sales, concerts, and endorsement deals.
Phyno’s recent real estate acquisition, involving the purchase of 20 units of detached Terrace buildings worth approximately N1.4 billion, was confirmed by Real Estate Mogul Ned Okonkwo. The announcement received widespread attention, with netizens hailing Phyno for his investment.
In another surprising development, Phyno revealed on his Instagram page that he has become a father, leaving many fans in shock. He shared a photo of himself with his son and mentioned that he took some time off to embrace fatherhood while continuing to work on his music career.
