Timini Egbuson: “Money Alone Can’t Save a Relationship” — Actor Opens Up on Love and Growth
Nollywood actor and filmmaker Timini Egbuson has shared a candid reflection on love, money, and relationships, revealing a significant shift in his perspective.
Speaking in a recent interview with Jay On-Air TV, Egbuson admitted that while he once prioritised financial stability in relationships, he now believes emotional presence and communication are just as important. According to him, relying solely on money as a contribution to a relationship is a shallow approach.
“I still think money is important, but what I realise now is that money is just one out of many things that matter. If all you can bring to a relationship is money, then you’re a very shallow man,” he said.
The actor explained that his views were shaped by personal experience, noting that communication issues contributed to the breakdown of a past relationship. He attributed this to his hectic schedule and a selfish mindset at the time.
Egbuson added that he has since grown and gained a deeper understanding of what love truly requires, stressing the importance of being present, emotionally available, and actively engaged in a partner’s life.
His comments have sparked conversations online about modern relationships, emotional intelligence, and the balance between financial support and emotional connection.
