Steve Smith says his family was emotionally bankrupt despite making $82 million in the NFL
“I struggle internally with understanding really what does a man bring to the table. I provided financially and a roof over my family's head, but emotionally they were bankrupt”
“Understanding that, figuring that out, and understanding what each one of my family members, my wife, what she need from me. How can I show up for her every day?”
“How can I show up for my daughter? How can I set that standard for my daughter, that she's not looking for the boyfriend to be there because her dad wasn't there”
“Just trying to figure it out myself and no longer blind leading the blind. More of leading from the front, and sometimes also leading from the back”
“Also asking my wife, ‘Hey, what do you think about this?’ instead of saying, ‘Oh, this is my house and I know what we need’”
Pitched a movie to a studio. They liked the idea. They paid me to write the movie. I wrote the movie. After a while, they decided they ain't wanna make the movie.
I said "cool. Gimme back the rights to my movie."
They said, "Cool. gimme back the money I paid you."
I said, "Cool. What's ya cash app?"
They said..... "Cool pay us back what we paid you, and if you sell this idea to someone else. give us 4% of that compensation AND give us 4% of any back end profits you make on top of that compensation and if the movie spins off into a TV show you owe us a $5000 per episode royalty on not only that show but on any spin-off shows that emerge from that derivative IP including any characters that weren't in the original script. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This the wild shit you'll never learn about from a podcast or a book or a Masterclass.😂These broke stingy ass bitches out here asking for alimony.
Anyways. 'Transformers One' was amazing. and I'm embarrassed that i watched it on a plane and not in a theatre.
