Singer Kalifah AgaNaga has revealed that he intends to leave his children ownership of his digital streaming platforms rather than land, arguing that online assets could become a more valuable inheritance in the future.
The singer believes many artists fail to appreciate the long-term value of digital platforms such as YouTube because they rush to withdraw their earnings instead of allowing them to grow over time.
According to AgaNaga, monthly payouts from streaming platforms may appear modest, but consistent content and patience can turn them into a substantial fortune over the years.
“YouTube can pay you Shs1 million, Shs2 million or even Shs3 million a month, but imagine if you do not withdraw it immediately and instead let it accumulate for five years,” he said.
AgaNaga disclosed that he has intentionally avoided withdrawing the money generated by his digital platforms, choosing instead to let it accumulate as a long-term investment for his family.
He added that when the time comes to retire, he would rather hand over his YouTube channels and other digital assets to his children than leave them land, joking that they would not have to battle over property.
The singer is confident that if the earnings continue to grow over the years, the digital platforms could eventually be worth billions of shillings, making them one of the most valuable assets he leaves behind.
