Elon Musk sparks online debate after saying ‘money can’t buy happiness’

Published

on

The world’s richest man, Elon Musk, has stirred fresh debate on social media after lending his voice to the long-standing argument that money alone does not guarantee happiness.

The Tesla and SpaceX chief executive shared the view in a brief post on Wednesday, writing, “Whoever said ‘money can’t buy happiness’ really knew what they were talking about.”

The comment quickly attracted attention, with many readers interpreting it as a rare reflection on the emotional limits of immense wealth.

Within hours, the post had amassed more than 33 million views and over 245,000 likes, sparking extensive discussion about whether financial success automatically translates into personal well-being.

In Nigeria, the statement drew cultural parallels, particularly to Adekunle Gold’s 2021 song It Is What It Is, in which the singer reflects on the realization that wealth does not necessarily bring fulfillment.

The lyrics echo a similar sentiment about the gap between financial gain and emotional satisfaction.

Reactions online were sharply divided. Some users agreed with Musk, arguing that while money may ease hardship, it does not eliminate emotional struggles.

One commenter noted that money may not buy happiness but can make difficult circumstances more bearable. Others strongly disagreed, pointing to the psychological strain of poverty and financial insecurity.

Several responses questioned Musk’s perspective given his extraordinary wealth, with some suggesting that even a fraction of his fortune would dramatically improve their lives.

Faith-based opinions also emerged, with commenters arguing that true fulfillment comes from spiritual values rather than material possessions.

Published

Ace musician, Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Face, has added his voice to the ongoing debate comparing singer Wizkid with the late Afrobeat pioneer Fela Anikulapo-Kuti.

Recall that Wizkid sparked outrage after claiming he is “bigger” than Fela while responding to Seun Kuti’s criticisms of him and his fans over the comparison of the Ojuelegba crooner with the Afrobeat legend.

Reacting in a snippet of the upcoming episode of the Mic On podcast, 2Face described the comparison “ridiculous,” emphasising that that it is both disrespectful to Fela’s legacy and unfair to Wizkid’s career.

The African Queen crooner explained that placing Fela and Wizkid side by side ignores their different eras, impacts, and unique contributions to Nigerian music.

“Comparing Fela with Wizkid is ridiculous. Apart from the fact that it is disrespectful to Fela, and at the same time, it is also unfair to Wizkid,” 2Face expressed.

Meanwhile, 2Face, has admitted that he made a lot of mistakes in the past both in his career and personal life.

Speaking in a snippet of the upcoming episode of the Mic On podcast, the music legend said he wish he could turn back the hand of time to make amends.

“There are so many things I wish I could rewind and do better. As a human being, there are times when you are overwhelmed or don’t make the best decisions. My thick-skin is weaker now,” he said.
