Meet Zuri. She’s living a fabulous life. Great car, gorgeous apartment, well paid job. Meet Zuri again. Broken down car, an apartment she cant afford, a job she’s about to lose. What’s a broke girl to do.? With her best friends Tami (the flighty fashion designer), Lara (the tough oil and gas executive), Adesuwa (the conservative lawyer), and Ladun (the fabulous housewife), Zuri grows a little, learns a lot and navigates her way to making better financial decisions and building wealth.
With each episode ending with specific financial subject matter including debt, spending triggers, handling money fears amongst others, the show easily builds discussion points around personal finance and wealth building for the African millennial.
“I’m excited to share The Smart Money Series with black women in the diaspora, Africa and all over the world,” said Arese Ugwu, Executive Producer of The Smart Money Series. “It’s so important to have honest conversations about how millennial women around the world experience managing their finances, especially women of color. In Africa and the diaspora, as a new community of women enter the workforce, they deserve an authentic portrayal of what it means to take charge of your finances, and get comfortable talking about money”
Ogiemwonyi added ‘We really wanted to capture what it means to be young, Black, Afropolitan and trying to make it in Lagos, one of the biggest megacities on the globe, and we know it will resonate with audiences everywhere.’
