"I'm not a businessman, I'm a Business, man!" - Messi World Champion 8 ballon d'or

In all honesty, the business of Messi is a bit underwhelming considering his status.
Messi's inability to speak english can also be one of the reasons why some of his investments or marketing are not kicking off.
You beat me to it
Not only does he not speak English (the most spoken language in the world)
He's also introverted ... even his Spanish speaking fans might not gravitate towards like that outside of football
The chance of him succeeding in business is so slim. Apart from selling shirts he he’s too stupid to run a bath for his children let alone run a large business
That's the beauty about messi.
Bad Boys?
This is so strange. he is a star and introverted... I was watching one of his interviews it seems someone was bulying and he responded
Watched every single video within an hour of release.
Now that's loyalty towards Athletic Interest.
indeed.same here😂😂😂
1 min into the video and editor is already cooking 🦅🦅🦅
The eagle screaming everytime the US Flag popped up killed me
I think off the court/field Roger Federer is the best example of how an athlete increases his wealth!
Swiss people do Swiss things lol
Lebron better
*laughs in Mathieu Flamini*
@@MrPrajitura the market he wants to attack is worth 10 billion his company is only worth 15million that was a mistake by google
That's not the best example: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Junior_Bridgeman
Each one of your videos is a case study in sports marketing industry.
Great videos as always.
Keep the good work coming, AI
Someone can understand and explain with vivid examples the marketing industry just by watching the athletics of interest ❤
With markets tumbling, inflation soaring, the Fed imposing large interest-rate hike, while treasury yields are rising rapidly-which means more red ink for portfolios this quarter. How can I profit from the current volatile market, I'm still at a crossroads deciding if to liquidate my $125k bond/stocck portfoli0
It’s precisely at times like these that investors need to be on guard against the next certainty. You don’t have to act on every forecast, hence i will suggest you get yourself a financial-advisor that can provide you with entry and exit points on the shares/ETF you focus on.
Right, I've been in constant touch with a fiinancial-analyst since covid . You know these days it's really easy to buy into trending stock`s, but the task is determining when to buy or sell . My advisorr decides entry and exit commands on my portfoliio, I've accrued over $300k from an initially stagnant reserve of $150K.
please I want to invest but I don't know any F/A that can help me, can you leave behind the info of the lady you just mentioned?
she's mostly on Telegram, using the user name

You forgot one key thing for the move into the MLS. Messi will be able to have his own franchise in the MLS. Just like Beckham. I think this might be the biggest reason why he went there.
Fun fact :Messi is also secretly learning English. You watch. In 15 years he'll speak English as good as Arnold swarzeneger
😂
No cap 😂
He’s been learning English since 2021 ( watch the interview with Guillem Balague that he did when he signed for PSg)
Why go through all the burden of building companies when he can just live off his image for the rest of his life and still make tons of money?
Look at Ronaldinho
Pelé did it for Decades.
Influenced by money hungry investors
@@fadisfeir4902true
Ronaldinho is bankrupt
Because he doesn't have to do shit. His company is investment and getting him profits. He can just sit back and relax
NFTS???? LMAOOO ITS SO OVER, DUDE GOT SCAMMED
fr
but we need to remember he is messi, he is known for pulling off a miracle every single time.
Felon Trump scammed his supporters with NFTS as well. So hilarious 😂😂
@@ronny-lb1crevery us president is a criminal lmfao, biden is funding a genocide in palestine, obama bombed the middle east the most out of any president, bush invaded the middle east for bs reasons, etc.
trumps no angel but his prosecution was clearly a political one
He was beautiful. He was the point of difference. He has always been the point of difference. Unparalleled, and maybe today there will, of course, always be those who argue, always be those who debate. And the debate could rage on if you like.The Greatest of all time🙌🐐
From the GOAT in football commentary - Peter Drury
He declined a billion to sell nfts 😭😭💀🤣
Time will tell
His move to Miami rather than to Middle East wasnt a business decision, it was a family decision.
Yeah, I can see turning down a lot of cash for a business opportunity, but when the cash amount is $1 bil and the opportunity is NFTs, collectibles and a video streaming startup, I mean, I definitely would've taken the cash. Messi's streak of bad investments seems to continue.
@@notsobrazy nfts were already dead in the water years ago
Athletic Interest bingo: Liverpool mentioned ✅
Tremendous stuff!!!! Information overload!!! Had to 1.5x the speed to make sure I could watch it all before the kids kicked off 🤣🤣.
Keep smashing these video out. Love the work
Because a soccer ball only weighs about 1 pound, while Messi weighs at least 150 pounds.
I'm also bigger than soccer.
What's soccer
😂😂😂😂
Sorry, what is soccer?
I hate the comments. There's always somebody funnier than me.
@@BMRH09 this literally isn't at all funny
Solid video Athletic Interest, you’re spot on with the MJ and LeBron James examples of superstar athletes becoming billionaires through smart investments and business ventures, Messi has the global star power that he will definitely be following in their footsteps to become a billionaire.
I expected better...... detail strategy on how he is planning to become a billionaire
Didn't they say the strategy was about anticipating how sports content will be consumed in the future (and cornering those emerging markets)? So I'd guess investing in streaming services.
They'll probably create something like a Spotify for football, won't they? Every goal available on demand, that kind of thing.
Shock, another great video.👍🏿
The topic doesn't represent the content whatsoever
I wish I could speak like this dude to make nice videos like him 😂😂❤❤ learning so much from you, keep going making videos🎉🎉❤
I would be super happy even if I had just $1 million. But these rich people with billions of dollars are never happy and always want to earn more
I watched all your videos,now that what I call a obsessed fan of a commentary channel ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤.
45mil/year for the rest of his life is an insane deal. Man just made sure his whole bloodlines bloodline has a secured future
As always a banger! Thanks for sharing
A few days later and he starts s sports drink company that looks like prime
❤Real Quality
I'm a huge Messi fan, but honestly, he is not representative like Ronaldo is. He knows like 5 words in English and he's introverted. Those two reasons alone are enough for him not to succeed off the pitch.
I really love the way they introduce their videos just mcwa
Messi's left foot>Other's networth 😂
Cheers from UK 👋
I am surprised he isn't a billionaire already with the insane money Barca paid him and all the crazy sponsorship deals he has had for ages.
Why you did not give any mention about his investment in the field of Esports and Gaming??and how much money he makes out of it???
Messi is already known worldwide outside of America but now that he joined America it's going to be an end game
Lebron bigger
@@demonofpurgatory5188 lol no he is now not even biggest in the America let alone worldwide
@@chanendlerbong one word china tjat market alone> what any influence a footballer has look it up
@@demonofpurgatory5188 Lebron isnt even close.
facts. Its Messi mania where ever he goes. Different celebrities and athletes attend games to watch the GOAT play
I've been a Messi fan since he burst into Barca's first team.
Now, some decade and a half later, I've seen more of him off the field than when he first started.
It pains me to say this, Messi will never reach Michael Jordan's height in wealth. He's too naive. He's a footballing GOAT but does not have the people acumen or business acumen. Shockingly, he sometimes doesn't even see clearly where his commercial potential is. His fan base in China dwarfs that of the US in numbers and in money potential. But his PR awkwardness presented him in the wrong optics with the Chinese people. I still can't believe in his mis-step there (in HK). I think a good part of his fan base and goodwill there has permanently evaporated into thin air. Kobe Bryant and now LeBron James have already shown the way into the heart of the Chinese fan base. But Messi had awkwardly tripped himself up there.
all these investments sound so bad... wtf is going on... it;s so easy for them at that level...
Really inspiring. Messi and also this channel.
God, how long does this amazing editing take? I`ll pay for somebody who can teach this
Messi is a Business, and He’s Been Businessed this whole years…
Ending BGM name?
Here for hoping…just want him to be the best as always
And Ronaldo is busy doing SIU in Saudi Arabia league😅
So basically my takeaway of this is that messi has terrible business sense. Getting the deal with apple and then buying the franchise might be very smarr, otherwise his incapacity of leveraging his brand to create a strong consumer product brand is baffling to me, there are literally hundreds of nobodies who create huge brands nowadays (rouge, five four five etc), he should really leave the investing to the pros. Either get a guy who can create a brand, otherwyjist put your money into PE and that should yield for RoE that thoae stupid business ventures. Then again, not really surprised by a dude thats not even capable of leaening to speak english. Footballing and business genius seem very very different...
Name of the song on the background
Awesome video as always!! Tbh I don't think Messi is the driving force behind this. He doesn't seem to me like a greedy businessman that wants to take over the world. I feel more like he is surrounded by people which want to make money through Messi. An investment here, an investment there.. and big percentage for the guy that advised him to do that.
that eagle sound effect😂
6:49 I was hoping for a mas + reference 😭

Amazing video, and amazing article it is based on!
Please, keep doing videos. Such a good channel
Athletic Interest never Miss man! They never Miss!!! Insane Video and Production quality as always!!!
Thanked his father as he is his agent.
The mind behind the business
I hope to achieve this level of editing on my channel ngl. 🔥
You're awesome bro
Please we want rally video
Make one on Ronaldo next tell his story of becoming a Billionaire.
Make a video on IPL cricket topic 💙
Man a coffe shop would also be pretty successful
This post changed everything
The Ultimate G.O.A.T.🐐⚽🔥
Muy buen video, lo vi traducido y comprendí al instante. Messi el empresario le veo buen futuro, ojalá se apruebe la ley bases en argentina y venga a invertir en argentina además de ser la cara de YPF
We love Messi..
He will be a franchise owner, he gets a share from adidas sellings, another share from apple and a 25 millon dollars contract. Not bad.
Reinventing the wheel he should have sneakers and things to go with sports like nutrition etc
I wanna be rich
we need Ronaldo's version next
The athlete for sure put in work on pitch BUT if your manager isn’t buisiness savvy you’re NOT getting the Jordan deal, Lebron Liverpool, Serena firm deals etc. The managers are the ones searching for this new opportunity which can make you a billionaire or $100m+ I think that’s way harder job but they are regularly under appreciated
Excellent presentation. How about a video of CR7’s investment?
Sure
Ive done one for Mbappe's
Which part is insane?
One of my favorite social media content providers ever…❤❤❤❤
The jordan shoes is great. Messi should start with that instead of streaming platform..
Another banga
It's called multiplier effect.
Talk about Cristiano Ronaldo's business too please
NFTs was such a scam.
A brand of himself
in the usa messi will be free to operate and succeed in his post football career
Brother why did you change the thumbnail 🫣 ?
What about his new energy sport drink mas+?
Why didn't footballers have signature sneakers or cleats line??
Messi should go into coaching.
Messi also went there to play with Busquests, Alba and Suarez
Media suits you Lionel messiii
and messi just dropped the prime “killer”
MESSI CAN MAKE MORE MONEY IN BARCELONA ALSO BUT HE DOSNT WANT TO RAISE SO MUCH THE PRICE BACK THAN FOR THE LOVE HE HAD FOR THE CLUB .. AND HE IS NOT THAT GUY LIKE RONALDO THAT HE COUNTS WHO ATHLETE MAKES MORE MONEY , MESSI JUST DOES HES JOB GOOD AND MONEY COMES GOOD THATS ALL
AI uploads, Messi, I click, I like ❤
NFTs??? What is this, 2020?
I did like to see video on Ronaldo like this
Well deserved goat
100k in sales “wouldn’t register on his balance sheet” because sales are reported in the P&L!!!
also messi has just launched a prime competitor
