This is the type of content the culture needs. There are A LOT jewels in this episode. People need to see the ugly side of being a professional athlete when you don’t protect your bread.
I NEED a PART II of Antoine Walker! This is a excellent interview! I need Antoine to do a movie and a documentary!! Stop cutting off Antoine- let him Talk!!!
Financial literacy is important to provide for the kids that are coming up looking at these athletes and entertainer. I love Antoine Walker humbleness....
Yeah but it should take strange men on TV or a phone to teach your kids about resources.. Thats a job of .... A mother AND FATHER !!! SICK OF BLACK PEOPLE BRUSHING THEY RESPONSIBILITIES ON ENTERAINERS
Imho its successful black folks period, im come from the projects jus like these guys but started building my wealth through architecture, i went from $19k to $110k in 7yrs, jus start spending money like water & got in a ton of debt……i def learn my lesson & went straight back to my humble beginning mentality 😂😂😂
Love this! Financial literacy in African american homes is quiet. As a mother of a d1 college football athlete, these classes are desperately needed! Salute to all of you and keep pushing forward!!
@@traceylawrence7943 Forget the schools! If they won't teach our kids in the schools we can do it on our own, we have all the info available to us now living in the age of information.
@Bo55edup True, but instead of the BS they're teaching now, they can implement it in school for the kids that WON'T get it at home. Remember there are plenty of foster kids and broken homes. A lot of those children build their foundation at school because they CAN'T at home.
Wow What a conversation. We need a pt 2 on this convo. JR Smith was basically saying the same thing. I need to hear more on the Antoine Walker Story. I feel like he has so much more to share. Antoine really clarified a lot of mischaracterizations put out in the press. DJ and Wale really added a special touch to it. A lot of real conversations and lessons to be learned. This was special Brandon. Well done.👏🏿👏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿.
This was the best I Am Athlete episode hands down. Antoine, thank you for your transparency and vulnerability. I hope it saves a lot of people in our community from that same heartbreak. Regarding Black history, I think it’s important to not knock our history or wrap it up as all being trauma and/or survival. I think part of the problem is many of us, America as a whole, don’t know the fullness of our history. It has been whitewashed. So, before we go the Black future route, let’s learn about our real history, heroes and sheroes. It wasn’t all struggle. There has been a lot of triumph, excellence and thriving done by our people. Great show, and keep pushing, B. Marsh!
Bro, Marshall talks soo much about himself ,hes really good at directing,but he has issues on speaking about himself!!he never lets the guest elaborate on what their saying before him trying to finish it for them
Fam I hope y’all replay this episode a thousand times And take notes. They’re dropping so many gems. This was one of those ones. Legendary episode. We need more of these conversations.
This epi was SUPER powerful and loved every second of it. I know the beauty of this show is raw, but If I could provide 1 critique, it is tough to watch when DJ or others keep interrupting someone who is about to make an awesome point.
This pod needs a real moderator… Someone to steer the ship and keep the main guest engage and to get their stories out. Several opportunities were missed because Antoine was cut off. More of his story needs to be told so we can learn. LET THE MAN FINISH!
PREACH. I totally agree they keep cutting off Antoine. And it's pissing me off. They have a gold mine with Antoine opening up.. I need a PART 2 with Antoine asap!!
For the ppl who won't view the whole interview, Walker made over 108 million in NBA contracts and 55 million went to taxes. Financial Literarcy is a must! No excuses after watching this video for young athletes, if you don't have ppl with Financial Literarcy then seek it for yourself
Great episode just let the guest tell their story without interrupting, I mean that's why they are there right. I love the convo though because I think financial literacy is important for all of us not just athletes. I'm not an athlete but definitely heard something I will take for myself and my financial journey.
Wale Ogunleye is a smart man & dropping Jewels of Wisdom. Much Respect for this information & Content. salute to Antoine Walker Chicago's Own. He right we need those Black activist in the Chi I know a few but they have not built up enough steam for everybody to know them yet.
Antoine Walker you are sitting on a pot of gold man. You need to go get a book deal, film, documentary (u already doing this) and so on. Write children’s book, motivational speaker all over schools and so on.
This conversation is always needed. We can never stop learning financial literacy. 4 different perspectives, 4 different journeys, and there is a lesson in everyone of them. Showing this episode to my 18 yr old son. Continue pouring into each other. Appreciate ya.
Totally agree with the gambling situation. When I lose a good amount of money to me I get upset at myself for losing that much so quickly so I throw more money chasing loses hoping to win it back easily. .. I've been on some losing streaks where you just can't believe you allowed yourself to throw it away like that
Definitely needs to be an ongoing topic to help the generation of millionaire ballers to come get the necessary knowledge and tools so that they dont lose it all and will be able to retire and enjoy the fruits of their labor. Thank you Antoine for sharing. Chicago loves you! I agree with B Marshal, Hundreds of millions are coming to you. You are needed! Your labor wasn't in vain! God bless you Antoine!
this has been going on since the beginning of time, if they don't know by now they'll never know. These men are given financial advisors and courses when they're signed to these leagues.
38:25 They (the bank) wanted their money back. Is the most IMPORTANT WORDS of this interview and Brandon did not let A Walker finish. Please pay attention people who believe in leveraging. THE BANKS CAN CALL YOUR LOAN AT ANY TIME! Edit: it wasn't Brandon it was the other guy.
ain't gon lie, it's hard to connect with this it takes wealth to make wealth to this extent in the vast majority of cases (for people who say "you can do it if you get off your ass", y'all need to realize how you're using survivorship bias when you think of the positive examples--because many people who do work sufficiently hard & smart (if not more so than the "successful" ones), simply will not reap the benefits in a way that gives them a reasonable chance to make multiple millions, much less 100 million probabilistically this is just incredible unlucky in most people's cases (not saying that you can't build above simply financial sustenance without being inherently good at sports, or lucky to have gotten exposure through another means: music, comedy, etc., but we have to be more honest about hustle culture--think about how many people do their absolute best and will need help regardless)
Love the show but need part 2 to find out the rest of Antoine Walker story. B has a habit of stepping on the guess when they are making a point then rarely get back on topic. One thing I hope he gets better at, other than that this episode like all the rest was 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you B.Marsh and the whole crew for putting together this conversation. This has been my favorite episode in quite a while. Please keep more episodes like this coming. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Man this is an dope interview. But what stood out to me when he said when he was up everyone was around enjoying it . When he went down no one was there, no phone calls no nothing thats sad. This man needed help
I'm only 30 mins in on this video and I wish wale was on all the episodes when they talked about finances. He could've probably dropped so many gems smh
I'm so happy that you brought that up as to why we don't do deals together. Byron Allen is about to buy an NFL team. How come more blacks with money didn't come in to make this a reality?
I'm so glad that the money experiences have inspired monetary responsibility and knowing the importance of the impact it has. I also commend teaching literacy in this area. True wealth is generational as well sharing the educational aspect of it.
Should’ve had Chad in this conversation. This would’ve been a moment where he would’ve been serious and really explained his method to retaining money through out his professional life
This is one of my favorite eps. I think this is the first ep where B Marsh let other people talk and he took the back seat.... This is what made the ep special.
Black history ain't just trauma. There is a LOT of black histoy that IS black excellence. GW Carver saved american agriculture. Madam CJ Walker empowered black woman and families by selling hair products. Bernard Garrett a real estate mogul that bought, rehabbed and rented buildings to Black folk moving from the south, giving them safe affordable housing. Garrett A Morgan self made entrepreneur and inventor who invented the stop light, gas mask, and tons more. Black history ain't just slavery and the civil rights movement.
As a former pro athlete with an economics degree. The degree show's the ability to study and understand economics but meant nothing in the real world of financing and discipline. The problem is money was never talked about in the household when I was growing up in high school. Just grades.
The irony of going to college/university so that you can make a better income but that same college/university does not make it priority for you to learn the basics of finance.
Dude from the Broncos was making me really mad!!! All the way up to the end of the show, then he started to have a mature moment. But even with that being said he was important to the conversation because he does represent a lot of ppl with that same mindset.... still don't know how he bought the same house 3x
Good episode…I still remember the first time Wale came on he spoke on how when young black athletes get to league instead of the money going forward it goes backwards to help the parents and uncles etc. as to other races the money continues to go forward majority of the time
This has been one of the best episodes. This show could of been way better if Brandon and DJ would of stopped interrupting. Can y'all please let your guest get their points across.
Loved this episode!!! Wale is a TRUE OG! That mentality of responsibility and accountability is F$&-ing significant. Learn from your mistakes. AW is a real one also for talking about his mistakes so other players and pro athletes can learn from them. Love your work BMarsh! IAm______ 💎💎💎
This info you are providing is very important for our youths to see and hear, before getting the money. I hope the youths are using you guys as cheat sheets. 🙏🏾
B Marsh and squad, considering this is a HUGE issue with athletes especially for minorities, is there a financially literate former athlete that will spearhead such a project with a respected institution/group of finance guys/women that will force young guys and old heads to learn some financial literacy? I would be so on board with that and would love to see you or others push for that
I really hope the young athletes preparing for the league, the athletes currently in the league, and those struggling after the league….ALL watch this video. Amazing content
Antoine might still be one of my favorite players to this day. I have his autograph picture hanging on my wall still. Those early 2000s teams with him and Paul Pierce that got to the Eastern conference finals those were my teams. I was in like 10th and 11th grade when they were challenging the nets for the Eastern conference. The good old days.
DJ is right. Nothing wrong with relaxing, and unwinding. All work will destroy you. Not everyone has the mental bandwidth to work their ass off then go study to know everything about finance. That's not realistic. As a child of immigrants your mindset is totally different even growing up in the same places as poor Americans. Less hang ups and a different type of perseverance. Financial institutions just want your cake. Wait till you are bored and your mind isn't being pulled in a million directions. School teaching dumb shit like the Pythagorean theorem instead of real life stuff.
You can't stump Wale. He's listening and observing everyone in the room. I would like to hear more from Wale. The gentleman in the camo pants just doesn't get it. He needs to put the drinks down. I like that Walker was being so honest.
Excellent convo… inspirational- motivational… we’re all in this together.. Thank you Gentlemen, you all are truly a Blessing! One day at a time.. one hour at a time…No one is perfect..no one …
I definitely need to see Antwon Walker in a interview where they actually let him speak and finish his statements. I really would love to hear his story In detail from him which would have been this interview but I think the guys drop the ball on this one. Still luv u guys though
Quick advice, for investors only Most people think, Investing in crypto is all about buying coins, then leaving it to rise, come on it takes much analysis to be a successful crypto trader. I've made $16,000 in 2 weeks of trading. With a capital of $3,400
@@holandkim3453 you should go on long term investment. I'm a long term investor, I started at the beginning of the year with $10,000 presently I'm having $103,700 on my dashboard, it takes patience.
To answer one of Walkers question. The reason why people can't have nothing together is because of GREED. People can have something going really good but always thinking they're bigger than the next....
@@ogflowers1578 Actually I think it's the opposite, you have it backwards. They made a bad decision by not investing their money and they want to blame him for it. Then when the money started coming in a year later they want to speak on ownership and yell "but friendship" and "we started together". Yeah but Bmarsh had to take all the risk. Antoine is saying Everyone put their MONEY together and do this. They declined to do it.
Its insane that I finally understood finances when i started working in the wall street area at a mortgage company... in 2022, I can afford first class but i stilllll dont get first class on commercial planes.. 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
42:45 got so real!!! Personally have always thought about that and a lil salty there was no answer to Antoine’s question and the convo went in a totally different direction..great talk tho
This was an excellent episode. I felt a lot of what was said. Even though I'm not an athlete, there's a lot I can take away for my own personal journey.
Real talk this is one of my favorite podcasts but lately they have been having several episodes based on financial advising and I personally like hearing the athletes talk about experiences they had in the sport they played. The truth is the 1percent of the world has the money you guys are actually talking about so I’m not getting anything out of learning what to do with my 5 million dollar contract..
I think learning about the value of money is a topic we all need to know. Once you get out of making "survival mode" money this topic is VERY important. Personally, I'm tired of just hearing war stories of what they did while they were in the league, all those stories start to sound alike after you here so many.
@@shakaj8639 I agree with that but I also think their is a big contrast between how they spend 6 million and how I send 60 thousand per year. I’m listening to them for their insight into the sports I love to follow not for financial adjustments..It actually hurts more then it helps (not to sound like a hater)
@lou the thing is a lot of what they did people making 60k are trying to do with their 9-5 and credit. I know and see a lot of people making less than 60 going to Vegas and Miami eating, sleeping, and partying in the same places and driving Range Rovers.
@@shakaj8639 I was saying it in a funny way but I guess as I’m cutting into pipes just to get a few hours overtime to get some extra money and they’re breaking down spending $54,000 on plane tickets,,, that hurts me as I’m working…I’m kidding but I’m seriously being a hater.. Thing is a guy like Antoine Walker as a big story on and off the court for numerous reasons so I was in a way let down listening to this .I respect everyone’s input though
Unfortunately, you not being financially literate is not the fault of financial institutions, or your family, or the NBA, or the NFL. Brandon is right, Its called education and the WILL to want to learn. If at the end you are broke after you have worked for all this money. Its on you, all these basic terms like, ROI, Basis points (fancy financial talk for a fraction of a percent), PV, FV, rule of 72, 4 % rule, debt service, nominal, real, realized, capital gains, compound, depreciation. I mean you can go on and on. There is a reason for all of this. The US educational system is designed in a way so that you are NOT financially literate by the time you graduate high school. So at 18 you can get a credit card and not know what 18.99% APR is? its a country of consumption. While in several countries finance classes is a part of there curriculum. The US does not teach you the importance of a credit score and how in the long term you will save on interest if you finance the two largest purchases of your life (home and car). With all the content FREE on youtube you do not even need to pay for these classes. Instead of being on social media "flexing" and spending hours scrolling, youtube the above basic terms and you will be more financially literate than you were yesterday and you will find out how much you got F*** for so long. Google an "amortization schedule" type in your terms and take a look at the breakdown of your monthly mortgage. Maybe this will motivate you to pay more toward your principle and own and perhaps have some financial freedom. I am bored at work and I had time today!

Yeah but it should take strange men on TV or a phone to teach your kids about resources..

it takes wealth to make wealth to this extent in the vast majority of cases (for people who say "you can do it if you get off your ass", y'all need to realize how you're using survivorship bias when you think of the positive examples--because many people who do work sufficiently hard & smart (if not more so than the "successful" ones), simply will not reap the benefits in a way that gives them a reasonable chance to make multiple millions, much less 100 million
probabilistically this is just incredible unlucky in most people's cases
(not saying that you can't build above simply financial sustenance without being inherently good at sports, or lucky to have gotten exposure through another means: music, comedy, etc., but we have to be more honest about hustle culture--think about how many people do their absolute best and will need help regardless)

Loved this episode!!! Wale is a TRUE OG! That mentality of responsibility and accountability is F$&-ing significant. Learn from your mistakes. AW is a real one also for talking about his mistakes so other players and pro athletes can learn from them. Love your work BMarsh!

"We. Have. To. Make. Time." .. Wale absolutely right, as I spend 70 minutes on youtube...
This info you are providing is very important for our youths to see and hear, before getting the money. I hope the youths are using you guys as cheat sheets. 🙏🏾
Yes we have heard the sad tales. It is time to turn those sad tales into success and positive stories. Great stuff. Financial literacy is key.
We need a part 2 walker played basketball with Donovan mcnabb at mount Carmel high school in Chicago
I still wanna know how he bought the same house 3 times tho 🤔
B Marsh and squad, considering this is a HUGE issue with athletes especially for minorities, is there a financially literate former athlete that will spearhead such a project with a respected institution/group of finance guys/women that will force young guys and old heads to learn some financial literacy? I would be so on board with that and would love to see you or others push for that
15:29 pretty much sums up what we're all thinking without saying it
I really hope the young athletes preparing for the league, the athletes currently in the league, and those struggling after the league….ALL watch this video. Amazing content
Antoine might still be one of my favorite players to this day. I have his autograph picture hanging on my wall still. Those early 2000s teams with him and Paul Pierce that got to the Eastern conference finals those were my teams. I was in like 10th and 11th grade when they were challenging the nets for the Eastern conference. The good old days.
DJ is right. Nothing wrong with relaxing, and unwinding. All work will destroy you. Not everyone has the mental bandwidth to work their ass off then go study to know everything about finance. That's not realistic. As a child of immigrants your mindset is totally different even growing up in the same places as poor Americans. Less hang ups and a different type of perseverance. Financial institutions just want your cake. Wait till you are bored and your mind isn't being pulled in a million directions. School teaching dumb shit like the Pythagorean theorem instead of real life stuff.
You can't stump Wale. He's listening and observing everyone in the room. I would like to hear more from Wale. The gentleman in the camo pants just doesn't get it. He needs to put the drinks down. I like that Walker was being so honest.
DJ said he invested $300K into Sara Stokes from Making The Band? LOL!!!
Lmaooo
He had to be smashing
Don’t invest in what you don’t understand. Slow and steady wins the race. Financial Education starts at home.
this might the best episode yall done in a min
Excellent convo… inspirational- motivational… we’re all in this together.. Thank you Gentlemen, you all are truly a Blessing! One day at a time.. one hour at a time…No one is perfect..no one …
I definitely need to see Antwon Walker in a interview where they actually let him speak and finish his statements. I really would love to hear his story In detail from him which would have been this interview but I think the guys drop the ball on this one. Still luv u guys though
Quick advice, for investors only
Most people think, Investing in crypto is all about buying coins, then leaving it to rise, come on it takes much analysis to be a successful crypto trader.
I've made $16,000 in 2 weeks of trading. With a capital of $3,400
$16,000 That's really big.
I trade on my own, but I've only made $2,800 in a month
Wow!! I thought I was the only one trading with Mr. Gary, I just withdrew my profits of $25k after investing $3,500, in two weeks of trading
@@holandkim3453 you should go on long term investment. I'm a long term investor, I started at the beginning of the year with $10,000 presently I'm having $103,700 on my dashboard, it takes patience.
I got referred to Mr. gary a week ago, and invested $5000, I've already made $23,000 can't wait to withdraw in two weeks.
Wow..!! that's amazing, please how do I started trading with him?
To answer one of Walkers question.
The reason why people can't have nothing together is because of GREED. People can have something going really good but always thinking they're bigger than the next....
just like bmarsh did with this podcast
@@ogflowers1578 Actually I think it's the opposite, you have it backwards. They made a bad decision by not investing their money and they want to blame him for it. Then when the money started coming in a year later they want to speak on ownership and yell "but friendship" and "we started together". Yeah but Bmarsh had to take all the risk.
Antoine is saying Everyone put their MONEY together and do this. They declined to do it.
Its insane that I finally understood finances when i started working in the wall street area at a mortgage company... in 2022, I can afford first class but i stilllll dont get first class on commercial planes.. 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
I love this show, but Brandon loves to argues. Bless his wife lmao
Deion Sanders is the future. .. He is a shining example of what future mentors should be
Dynamic show with an EXCELLENT TOPIC. We should even think about the financial education as early as middle school, high schools definitely!!!
i dont have any where near the money these guys got or had , but they got me doing line items on things i really dont need, respect great show
Walker is right about us investing together ✊🏿👍🏾
42:45 got so real!!! Personally have always thought about that and a lil salty there was no answer to Antoine’s question and the convo went in a totally different direction..great talk tho
This was an excellent episode. I felt a lot of what was said. Even though I'm not an athlete, there's a lot I can take away for my own personal journey.
Need more Wale on this show
Real talk this is one of my favorite podcasts but lately they have been having several episodes based on financial advising and I personally like hearing the athletes talk about experiences they had in the sport they played. The truth is the 1percent of the world has the money you guys are actually talking about so I’m not getting anything out of learning what to do with my 5 million dollar contract..
I think learning about the value of money is a topic we all need to know. Once you get out of making "survival mode" money this topic is VERY important.
Personally, I'm tired of just hearing war stories of what they did while they were in the league, all those stories start to sound alike after you here so many.
@@shakaj8639 I agree with that but I also think their is a big contrast between how they spend 6 million and how I send 60 thousand per year. I’m listening to them for their insight into the sports I love to follow not for financial adjustments..It actually hurts more then it helps (not to sound like a hater)
@@lousbasementpodcast1821 How does it hurt?
@lou the thing is a lot of what they did people making 60k are trying to do with their 9-5 and credit. I know and see a lot of people making less than 60 going to Vegas and Miami eating, sleeping, and partying in the same places and driving Range Rovers.
@@shakaj8639 I was saying it in a funny way but I guess as I’m cutting into pipes just to get a few hours overtime to get some extra money and they’re breaking down spending $54,000 on plane tickets,,, that hurts me as I’m working…I’m kidding but I’m seriously being a hater.. Thing is a guy like Antoine Walker as a big story on and off the court for numerous reasons so I was in a way let down listening to this .I respect everyone’s input though
Unfortunately, you not being financially literate is not the fault of financial institutions, or your family, or the NBA, or the NFL. Brandon is right, Its called education and the WILL to want to learn. If at the end you are broke after you have worked for all this money. Its on you, all these basic terms like, ROI, Basis points (fancy financial talk for a fraction of a percent), PV, FV, rule of 72, 4 % rule, debt service, nominal, real, realized, capital gains, compound, depreciation. I mean you can go on and on. There is a reason for all of this. The US educational system is designed in a way so that you are NOT financially literate by the time you graduate high school. So at 18 you can get a credit card and not know what 18.99% APR is? its a country of consumption. While in several countries finance classes is a part of there curriculum. The US does not teach you the importance of a credit score and how in the long term you will save on interest if you finance the two largest purchases of your life (home and car). With all the content FREE on youtube you do not even need to pay for these classes. Instead of being on social media "flexing" and spending hours scrolling, youtube the above basic terms and you will be more financially literate than you were yesterday and you will find out how much you got F*** for so long. Google an "amortization schedule" type in your terms and take a look at the breakdown of your monthly mortgage. Maybe this will motivate you to pay more toward your principle and own and perhaps have some financial freedom. I am bored at work and I had time today!
