Shaquille O’Neal says his dream was making $8M a year until his agent told him dominance could get him $120M
"my dream when I came out was to make $8 million for 10 years… for real, that was my dream"
"when I get drafted, my agent said we asked them for $50 million. I’m like, what? Is this legal?"
"we asked for $50M and we got $40M… but he was like, after three years I can get you $120 million, so that just extra motivated me"
