While many of us are still old-fashioned parents who would rather splurge on a massive birthday party for our children, Nandi Madida has moved with the times and purchased her son Shaka a piece of land instead.
Nandi gifted her son with this investment in November last year.
Madida took to Instagram to share the proud moment and her reasons for doing it.
“This was a very proud moment for me as his mother, because this is a legacy that will last for many generations to come. It’s the same as Colour (my fashion line) and the other businesses I’m a part of –which you’ll soon learn about. I want my children to understand generational wealth.
“Having grown up in Durban North and having parents who come from rural KZN Maphumulo, I learnt from both backgrounds that generational wealth is more important than buying things that lose value over time (cars, clothes etc.). I am who I am because of my parents, grandparents and my ancestors. I owe it to my kids to also play my part,” Madida said on Instagram.

She said she has started building a farm for him on the land, which he will one day hand over to his children.
And we’re all inspired:
Last year I bought my son some land as his first bday gift and have begun building a farm for him, which he will then hand done to his kids &so on. Generational wealth is more important to me than material things that lose value. #Shaka #ugogonomzukulu ? ? pic.twitter.com/qR7SDGEFeN
