Having blown over R10 Million, Fassie confessed to splurging on expensive alcohol, cars, and even narcotics. He estimated spending a staggering R4 Million on drugs alone.
Despite the lavish expenditures, Fassie revealed that his income didn’t match his extravagant lifestyle, leaving him in financial turmoil.
Moreover, the people around him further drained his finances, whether through taxes or personal demands.
Navigating the unpredictable nature of the music industry, Fassie expressed the challenges of securing a stable income, never knowing where the next paycheck would come from.
While his work brought in some payments ranging from R40,000 to R300,000, the artist found himself constantly taxed by managers, friends, and acquaintances, leaving him with little to show for his efforts.
The financial strain reached a point where Fassie struggled to support his grandmother’s household in Capetown.
Unable to keep the house afloat, he relied on his executive to send money to his family. The hardships Fassie faced highlighted the harsh reality behind his once-lavish lifestyle.
