He said:
“Sometimes we get into a lot of arguments because showbiz is different from a normal person’s life that’s just doing business. For example, I might be in Italy and he sees a caption ‘Davido buys this $300,000 watch’ and he’s like ‘Why are you wasting money?’ and I’ll be like ‘Daddy you won’t understand, we are inspiring people.”
During the interview, Davido also noted that his billionaire father makes sure he saves and invests his money from time to time. He also recounted one time his father gave him good financial advice after he wanted to rent a penthouse.
In his words:
“But all in all, it’s still business, he still calls me to make sure I save here, invest there. For example I wanted to rent a penthouse and he advised me ‘You’re wasting money spending on rent, buy it and use it, when you’re not around, Air BnB, so little advice here and there. It took a while for him to accept it but now he has.”
