Ghanaian Woman Sparks Debate With Warning on Rich People’s Exploitation Tactics

• A Ghanaian woman warned that wealthy people exploit others by luring them with small promises under the guise of generosity
• She explained that once beneficiaries accept gifts, they become trapped, forced into multiple unpaid roles beyond their responsibilities
• Her message urged people to recognise personal worth, reject false comfort, and leave environments that stunt growth

A Ghanaian woman has sounded a powerful warning about the often-overlooked ways wealthy and influential people exploit others under the guise of generosity.

In a video making waves on social media, the Ghanaian lady, identified as Remy Enam, explained that many of the wealthy maintain their elevated status not just by hard work alone.

According to her, they strategically use others to attain their wealth status and serve their personal needs.

According to her, once someone accepts these “gifts,” they often become trapped in a cycle of obligation.

Their role quickly extends beyond their actual job description, then to all-purpose assistants, meaning they often multitask with roles like drivers, errand runners, and even personal aides, without formal recognition or fair compensation.

Remy emphasised that the situation is worsened when beneficiaries live with their benefactors.

She further explained that free food, utilities, and a sense of comfort create dependency, making it harder for them to demand their rightful salaries or pursue personal ambitions.

Instead, they settle into a false sense of security that keeps them tied down.

Her message concluded with a passionate call for self-awareness and personal empowerment.

She urged people to recognise their worth, prioritise their growth, and have the courage to walk away from environments that stunt their progress.
