“I’ve never seen a real businessman say ‘money na water’,” declares billionaire entrepreneur and Coscharis Group founder, Dr. Cosmas Maduka, as he voices strong disapproval of the growing trend of flaunting wealth and spraying money at social gatherings.
The respected industrialist described the act as a reflection of moral decline and distorted values, emphasizing that true prosperity is defined by humility and discipline — not extravagance.
Maduka Criticizes the Culture of Flaunting Wealth
According to Maduka, many people who publicly display riches often lack genuine financial success. He stressed that authentic wealth inspires modesty and responsibility, not noise or arrogance.
He further warned that the habit of glorifying those who throw money around sends a dangerous message to the youth, encouraging greed and misplaced priorities.
“Respect hard work, not showmanship,” Maduka advises
Dr. Maduka called on Nigerians to abandon the obsession with ostentatious living and instead embrace values like integrity, discipline, and respect for legitimately earned wealth — the true marks of lasting success.
