  all we need is a better social security system to cater for the aged not only for creative art industry. every single person is important. how much can a man save to take care of him during retirement?

  there should be something like Medicaid and medicare which take care of individual in the society if you qualify in the time of needs. money is collected by the governmemt from individual pay from each pay check.some Ghanaians take advantage of this and come for the labour in the state. birthing cost about $10000 in the states. any other procedure are biled differently.not only musician will benefit from something like but every body in the society.

  Attack the argument not the person. He's absolutely right. Showbiz is not the civil service and entertainers deserve no pension. Structures should rather be in place for them to earn more from their art and that's exactly what Mark has said. I don't like the man but I agree with him.

  I am on your side, musicians of today don't save, they only buy cars and clothes and also chilling with their girlfriends forgetting about tomorrow. Sarkodie, shata wale and co should listen and invest.

  Mark should first ask how much the older folkers made in their time. Even those around today are not making anything much, with the exception of few. The success of some few people must not be mistaken and generalised.
