“Wealth and success is now measured by posts on social media” — Yvonne Jegede

Nollywood actress, Yvonne Jegede has spoken against the recent trend of people measuring success and wealth by social media posts.

Yvonne Jegede who took to her Instagram page stated that people now assume that successful people are the ones who flaunt their wealth on social media.

 She wrote;

“The Internet has given popularity to opinions that shouldn’t be formed, to behaviours that shouldn’t be emulated, to people that shouldn’t be famous.

The other day I posted something about a car and a new camera phone and I got a comment that got me thinking. Common sense is not so common nowadays. If you don’t post on social media they assume your life is messed up! And that you don’t have anything. Your Wealth/success is Measured by what you post on social media these days!…..We live in a messed up society.”
