Popular singer Simi has emphasized the vital importance of financial independence for women, urging parents to raise their daughters with a strong sense of self-reliance. In a recent TikTok video, she advised women to take control of their financial futures.
“Please do not raise your daughters to think they should rely solely on someone else,” Simi stated. “When someone is spoiling you, it should be because you can spoil yourself too. As they spoil you, you should be spoiling them, showing your strength.”
Simi highlighted that financial independence not only provides security but also empowers women to be confident and self-sufficient. “There is security in knowing you can fend for yourself. A woman’s economic power is essential in acknowledging her completeness,” she added.
Reflecting on her own upbringing, Simi recognized her privilege and the support she received, acknowledging that many women face greater challenges. She urged society to assist women in need of opportunities, saying, “When you can give a deserving woman a chance, please do it.”
Her message calls for a collective effort to uplift women and provide them with the opportunities they deserve.
