Klutch Sports CEO Rich Paul says $200 million isn't as much money as athletes think
"I got guys, 22, making $200 million over the next four or five years. I'm constantly telling them that's not a lot of money based upon where you're starting, because you're starting from zero"
"How do we understand how to compound that. Everyone's not going to play into their 40s. They're done when they're 33. They're paying a 51–55% tax"
"Not to mention jeans today, the ones they want that they're buying in excess, which they probably don't really need, cost $2,000"
"No athlete can afford to fly private all the time, yet we see so many athletes on Instagram flying private"
"I fly Delta. I cannot afford to fly private, and that's okay with me. I'm just trying to get where I'm trying to go to make the money. I'm not trying to spend the money"
"The times I do fly private, you will never see it on Instagram because it's not for show"
BREAKING: The Trump Administration and the US Treasury Department are designing a $250 bill featuring President Trump, per the Washington Post.
If this is launched, President Trump would be the first living person to appear on a US currency since 1866.
If your 1970’s home is now worth $1M, you’re on the hook for ~$10K/yr. Based entirely on unrealized gains. That’s absurd for the fixed-income elderly.
Property taxes SHOULD be abolished for Boomers. But they should be abolished for everyone else too. Property taxes are evil.
Kevin O’Leary says your closet is full of crap and you should start buying quality
"My mother taught me don't buy crap. She used to only buy one Chanel jacket a year, but a really good one"
"When she died, there was a cat fight for her clothing amongst the women in my family because they were now vintage Chanels"
"Most people if you go look in your closet it's full of crap you don't need. Don't buy the crap, buy the good stuff and just buy less of it"
Last year, the city of Austin turned off their Flock cameras as the result of a targeted misinformation campaign.
This weekend, for nearly 24 hours, three suspects drove around Austin in stolen vehicles, undetected, conducting a shooting spree at 12 separate locations. They shot multiple people, houses, apartment buildings, businesses, and fire stations. They committed multiple robberies and car thefts during the spree. Despite a full manhunt involving 200 officers, with helicopter and K9 support, they weren't able to locate the suspects, and the spree continued.
Luckily, the suspects drove into the Flock-supported city of Manor, TX. Manor is a small city with ~20k residents, and a fraction of Austin's budget. What they do have is modern technology and the ability not to fall victim to misinformation campaigns.
After the suspects drove into Manor to continue their shooting spree, Manor PD located them almost immediately. The residents of Manor stayed safe.
This is a tale of two cities.
I love Austin. I have plenty of friends who live there. I myself almost moved there years ago. I'm glad that the shooting spree is over, but I just wish it never happened.
The best way to defeat liberals in argument is to argue from the left of them.
$15 minimum wage, why not $100?
Asylum? why not open borders?
They have no principles they can call on to limit their own arguments.
Kevin O'Leary reveals the trust fund structure he set up for his kids the day after he became rich
"When the learning company got sold for about $4.2 billion and 10 of us were founders, we woke up and said we're rich. I went to the lawyers and said I want to set up a trust that pays for my kids until they finish college and then they get nothing"
"The lawyer said what the hell's that. I said it's a way I can provide for them to set them up in life but not entitle them. I was taking a cue from my mother's strategy"
His mother's strategy:
"When I graduated, my mother said I've got great news, I'm coming to the graduation, but I also have some other news, no more checks. I said what do you mean. She said the dead bird under the nest never learns how to fly. No more checks. You're going to have to figure this out on your own"
"I had a tough couple of years. I couldn't even pay the rent. But it worked out and I got motivated"
