When you are broke, you’re treated like nobody by family, friends – Delay

Ghanaian media icon Deloris Frimpong Manso, also known as Delay, has voiced her concerns about society’s treatment of individuals facing financial difficulties.

In a recent Facebook post dated April 18, 2024, the renowned host of ‘The Delay Show‘ shared her perspective on the shift in people’s behavior towards those experiencing financial hardships.

Delay pointed out the stark difference in how individuals are treated by their family and friends based on their financial status.

She highlighted that when someone is struggling financially, they are often disregarded and treated poorly.

However, once they attain financial success, attitudes towards them change drastically.

She remarked, “If you’re broke, your family and friends will treat you like a nobody. Make some money and see, they’ll change your name to Chairman and Executive Chairperson! The people who throw you out will welcome you in when you make money.”

Moreover, Delay criticised the superficial display of affection and respect shown towards wealthy individuals by the public, labelling poverty as a ‘silent killer.’

“Money will bring you more fake love and unusual respect. When a rich man cracks a dry joke, people laugh. When a poor man cracks a funny joke, people say he’s making unnecessary noise. Poverty is a killer!” she emphasised.

Delay’s candid commentary sheds light on societal biases and the impact of financial status on interpersonal relationships.
