Billions worth KRG The Don reveals when he made his first million

KRG The Don has revealed the age at which he made his first million.

KRG's wealth and source of the same leave many talking because other than doing music he rarely talks about the other sources of his money as he drives top-of-the-range vehicles.

During an interview with Dr Ofweneke, on TV47 the 'Kairetu' singer whose real name is Kiragu Kimani said he made his first million at the age of 17.

"That was in 2008, I was 17 years," he said answering the question about the age at which he made his first million.

Ofweneke wanted to know how much he makes from music, and the musician said he does music out of fun and his love for music. He likened it to a beautiful lady who does not have to wear makeup to appear beautiful.

According to KRG, he had the money even way he started doing music hence the value he gets from it is peanuts compared to what he makes from his other businesses.

On the secret of making money, he said, "The secret of making money is first dependent on the level of hunger for the money you have, it depends on what you want in your life and how much you want to achieve in life".
