    its actully a misnomer that athletes go broke by buying a lot of expensive things. most often its the fact that they literally give payments to extended family members, pay a dozen mortgages for family members, child support payments, divorce and bad investments (usually from unscrupulous financial advisers. NBA great Tim Duncan lost nearly 20 million dollars to a bad financial investor.
    the NBA put rookies through a financial symposium that started about a decade ago, and its been wildly successful. athletes are now starting to realize that spending money on extended family will inevitably make you broke. The NFL started doing it about 5 years ago.

    It's amazing listening to the story about him with Mike Tyson, Tyson may have seemed like a big shot then but his financial advisor saved him from becoming broke like Tyson. Lots of respect for Shaq.

      +ALex Wu Not really. Then he wouldn't have spent a million bucks on one day, going broke and needing financial advisors telling him not to do things like that. It's pretty obvious stuff, so he can't be that smart of a guy.

  • @rickeybethyname9199
    @rickeybethyname9199 7 років тому +2

    The thing great about shaq is that he doesn't care for the money . He's not the type to show off all the bills .
    He made a life off what he loves ... That's really inspiring right there .

  • @ManUtdiszbest
    @ManUtdiszbest 8 років тому +615

    So the parents asked 'where is mine?' Instead of telling their son 'slow down'.... Selfish, if u ask me...That being said, I don't think anybody in NBA enjoy/enjoyed their off the court life as Shaq did/ is doing .... Good for him!

    • @nutssack

    • @ManUtdiszbest
      @ManUtdiszbest 8 років тому +37

      +Confuzzled Weed it's only right to help them and they ask him for help....but instead of them asking to buy them that much much expensive car at that stage of his carrier and that limited money, the could tell home to 'slow down'.... Of course it's not my business to suggest a man how to spend his money... But my opinion is that the parents, as a mature ppl, should look out for you.

    • @nutssack
      @nutssack 8 років тому +2

      ManUtdiszbest It's natural for a human to over look "right and wrong" when someone close receives a large amount of money. Sure maybe right now you might think that if you won the lottery or something you would donate to the poor/ charities, but if you actually receive that money, you're not gonna be thinking about right or wrong.

    I remember when Shaq started playing for the Magic in 92, I thought he was cocky. I don't obviously hang out with him but according to what I see online, he seems like a pretty nice guy. I like the video where cops were going to play some kids in basketball. They told the kids they will be back. They return with Shaq, the kids loved playing one of the greatest.
