You must be a little serious. You need to have a vocation and ply it until the need arises that what you\u2019re getting out of the acting will be able to sustain you\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He used the opportunity to advise his younger colleagues to make it a point to save some money in order to build a solid foundation for themselves because it will be heart wrenching to come back as a pauper when you are old and wornout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cLike footballers, like athletes, like artistes, you\u2019re just like someone who is a banker or who is a producer or who is a presenter and as you go along the line, you need to also make sure that you\u2019re able to improve your standard of living so that when bad times come your way, you will be able to meander your way through because I don\u2019t think that once you\u2019re an actor, at every time, you should be at the beck and call of others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019re plying a trade and even fortunately for us, most of us were not professional actors, we had our own professions before we were acting so that when the need arises, that acting has somehow gone down or whatever, you shouldn\u2019t be found wanting\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn short, once you\u2019re on heat, you need to prepare yourself and that is what I feel. Even though I believe that what the government should also invest into it, it has not been able to do, because the government stands to gain a lot if they would be as serious as they should be in that direction. Apart from that, whoever comes into the fray must also know what it entails.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Source:\u00a0MyNewsGh.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Veteran Actor, Henry Harding, popularly known in showbiz as Pattington Papa Nii Papafio, has advised young actors and actresses to build other careers rather than taking acting as a full-time career.
