I went free agent to the Vikings in 2011. Signed for 50k, when I got my check it was around 27k . I ended up getting released and then having a hunting accident that kept me from going to the patriots.

@@Canedude08 nothing about my education was free, but then again what in America really is. I’ve got more scars and broken bones then the average man but I also have the discipline, drive, and so many other characteristics I learned or that was instilled in me that have propelled me to be able to live the way i prefer. So while I would say my education may not have cost me anything monetary, it was just payed for by other means but I do know what you mean brother and I really appreciate that.
Money is a lie to get people into buying things that are worthless!! Jewelery,cars,ridiculous mansions when you could have owned multiple properties and improved your own communities. But nah its cool just move to the big city and jump in the rat race
I own clean Maryland, Septic LLC i made 350k my first year and blew it partying and taking care of family. The next year i hired a cpa and tripled my profit. I learned to be financially responsible. The coa said if you don’t follow my instructions i dont want to do business
You were my Masterclass today! I teach HS Business courses and for my football players who will not complete school work because they say they don't need to know about taxes, financial literacy or business operations. Thanks for emphasizing discipline in finances which they dismiss its relevance. "How you do some things is how you do everything". Thanks for making my business lesson relevant today. I sincerely appreciate you two.
Dumbest thing I ever heard. My high-school classmate was the late Philip Lutzenkirchen. (RIP). Even after winning National championship with cam Newton at auburn he had a hip injury. No nfl team if paying max contract of you injured rookie. They won't need the education right?
Shoutout to Dennis Northcutt for looking out for Ocho! For a division opponent (he was a Cleveland Browns receiver) to take the time and effort to look out for another receiver is amazing. You’re a real one 💯
This segment is pure gold. The lessons of fiscal responsibility and not seeking to impress others is worth revisiting. Shannon's agent gave him some precious money saving advice.
Sterling was a legend at South Carolina and took that straight to Green Bay where he put up Hall of Fame numbers until he was injured. But at that time he didn't even get a fraction of what Shannon and Ocho made in their careers.

I wish more young Black men knew about the power of COMPOUNDING INTEREST. When you put away a large amount of money and don't touch it for an extended amount of time, every year of earned Interest adds on to the previous year and expands exponentially! 📈
We understand it, most young black men are just functionally broke. Saving all your money and cutting lifestyle expenses when you’re young negatively affects your potential dating options in the short term in a major way, that’s the main reason why young black men don’t do it. If you think you’re gonna live in a lower end apartment, drive older cars, have just a decent wardrobe, not spend a lot traveling and actually keep a pretty black girl around you can freaking forget it. The average income and the societal expectations from young black men are severally out of whack based on the economy. The majority of the black youth are not growing up in traditional homes and that’s why everything is so toxic in the dating pool. We understand that you’ll be rich by the time you’re old if you save almost everything, but then at that point you’re just a rich old trick.
@@MrMan-fx3owthat is the basis of why black men date outside of their race. The nuclear black family has been ruined by media but the black man has always been valuable in the eyes of most women. I have always been frugal and earlier in life the only attention I got was from white or Asian girls. Now I’m older and have a great career and own my home outright and make a lot of money to travel and now black and Hispanic women look my way at the same clip that other races do. It is a shame really because one of my first girlfriend was a ride or die chick and was with me when I was just getting started and she is Asian

TEACH A MAN TO FISH. DON’T GIVE A FISH. Not saying don’t help family. But be selective, diligent and very careful in how to discriminate with distribution of YOUR ONLY ASSETS
That’s one hell of an agent. Dude completely thought about not just uncs future but his kids future as well. Yeah I’m sure he made us money obviously but he set unc up for success early and had set for the future as well in case anything happened. That man said Shannon we gonna create generational wealth for you.
That agent is a complete utter badass! As a financial planner the level of care and fiduciary duties displayed by that agent is what i strive for. When you got an agent like that who works for you and your goals… damn so cool to hear this side cuz more ppl need this type of planning no matter the dollar value in their bank
Fellas… this is so needed… thank you all for this.. I don’t make football money, but you don’t have to in order to benefit from this information…. Keep it up
it doesnt matter how much you make really, its how much you keep. I used to not have any excess money and barely able to keep up with rents, utility cost and food, now that I do make a lot more, I still dont really spend more than I used to, only big purchase i made in the past 3 years was buying my mom a house and have her retired
Shannon is dropping SO MUCH financial knowledge here. He invested 1/3 of his earnings and didn’t touch it for 20 years. That compound interest had to have been crazy.. He was probably making 70-100 k a year just off interest towards the end. He also pays taxes quarterly.
More than 70-100K. Probably closer to 200K without doing anything. Now you can get 6% interest on cash. Because they can charge 12%-20% when they lend it.
It's literally just saving and investing what you got. Nothing to do with 1/3 or whatever. Just spend less and invest more. Y'all make that out to be super special or something 🤦
I’m not and never have been in the league of Unc or Ocho. But I will say this… in 2010 I made 60k after taxes, and was always close to broke every week. In 2015 I made about 160k after taxes, and was always close to broke every month. 2020 I make 600k after taxes… everything was shut down for COVID, and I STILL had nothing left at the end of the year. Finally over the last 3 years I started putting away 40% into long term of investments. The truth is that it’s just really hard to change your ways. Respect to both these men on here.
I love the 30% rule and looking out for your family first. These are principles that can be applied to any salary level. Thank you guys for being so transparent.
A good man leaves an inheritance for his children’s children. Shay got the right idea. Unc ain’t never lied about that 90s phone bill😂😂😂. That ish was crazy
they mentioned it when they said you gotta get your girl one of them cars but women is a expense that don’t even need to be brought up we know how women can be your financial down fall
I have more respect for Shannon Sharpe taking care of his family he didn't let the fame or the wealth get in the way of that and I'm so happy that he did that for his family
Man I read a lot the comments of all these people that love night cap. I just want to join in and show some love to y’all @Ocho @Unc. You guys are doing your thing and I love watching you guys both on the daily and watching y’all blow up. All love ❤️
Baseball has 162 games in their regular season. That’s 162 times in just the regular season for ticket sales, concession sales, merch sales, and that’s before you get to tv deals, advertising, and sponsorship. and the price only goes up for everything in the postseason and the World Series. And also baseball doesn’t have a salary cap. These are some of the big reasons why mlb makes that kind of money to pay players those huge contracts.
@@juspulluponme1594 yessir! baseball is the most “grindiest”, tedious, & difficult sport of them all…but goodness you get rewarded on the back end if you stick it out
So do they make a distinction between ticket sales and attendance? Cause like Ocho said some of those games be looking very empty. So are those tickets being sold and people just don't go to the game for whatever reason?
@@puzzlepiecemedia they’re all tied together. but it’s still 162 games man. but you also have to factor in that teams with poor attendance like that don’t usually have big time players on their teams. If you have time, compare the payroll and attendance of the dodgers vs the white sox. baseball’s lack of salary cap is a problem to some ppl. because teams like the dodgers and Yankees can horde talent and payout huge contracts that smaller market teams can’t possibly afford.
Dude why are you writing a book😅. MLB revenue is around $11.6 billion. Hence, the NFL is generating around $18.7 billion. These can easily be research. Teams like Steelers, and cowboys can have 25 to 30 millions average viewers in a regular season game.
I remember the first time I went to Vegas in 2005 I didn't even turn my flip phone on the entire week bc of roaming charges. Unlimited nights and weekends were amazing!
You really needed advice not to spend more than you earn ? These 2 acting like it's so hard to live off NFL minimum contracts which is more than 97% of law abiding tax paying citizens make
I wish y’all knew how much this convo has helped me!! I work and own a janitorial cleaning business. High mortgage payment. At 33 years old but I’m blessed!! I’m not making a million dollar YET but this has inspired me to seek a financial advisor! Thanks guy!
This is probably their BEST show, and they need to take this topic on the road; to high schools, colleges, to the financial planning classes of professional athletes, military transitioning programs, etc. Thanks Unc and Ocho for sharing!👍🏿✌🏿
Ocho smartened up after that initial lesson. Shannon was smart enough to follow advice given. They both followed a disciplined approach to their financial situation. So many can learn from them.
This conversation you just has is great saving money, I love being cheap I have never owned a new car and I'm sure I never will. All I like is old school and I don't mind working on my cars or homes it's a blessing listening to both you guys thank you!
I am a everyday working guy, career now in year 27, never made more than $80k a year and I can retire now at 50, 401k, pension, savings, owe a little on my home car paid off, little debt. if I want to retire I can, as I am set, so no matter how much or how less money you make, live within your means and don't waste money is the moral of the story. I agree with Shannon as I also got the I'm pregnant notification 27 years ago, and I had the same response as unc.
Dennis Northcutt a true og looking out for a division rival that's unheard of but thats love props Ocho for hitting him back on the ASAP. Bengals 🐯 and Browns 🐕
I loveeee that they always talk about finances on this show but i loooovveee how long this segment was and how they both shared their misfortunes with money but was able to turn it around! Salute to them both
Reason baseball players get paid so much is because teams don't have a salary cap. Also baseball players unions are way stronger than in NFL/NBA. In NFL, everyone trying to get paid quickly instead of holding out, and there's always someone next in line willing to work for less. NFL players could learn something from baseball players about self organizing and sacrificing for better pay.
@certifiedchaos4643 That's literally a lie... MOST baseball players don't make millions of dollars, period. MOST baseball players, make $50k-$120k per year in the minors. They don't have the ability to DEFER anything. Stop lying on the internet. Most baseball players go BROKE too. 4x the national average, MLB players go BANKRUPT within 5yrs of leaving the major leagues. They aren't AHEAD of any curve.
@@darrellmcnair9858 ....162 game season, ticket sales... TV deals... Jersey Sales in baseball are INSANE. They just make a boatload of money in the sport. It's not confusing.
I have coworker who has rim protection. 😳 what the heck rim protection for your rims on your car? She said when your rims get scuffed backing into curb or anything rims get replaced. I said it's a car my rims scuffed plenty of times because I hit the curbside to close. Oh well Insurance companies doing too much.😮
Deion Sanders, Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Eli Manning, Michael Strahan, Pat McCafee , Shannon Sharpe, Chad Johnson, Charles Woodson. The only 9 former Players in the past 20 years to still be making $Millions after they retired from the NFL.

JFC 45 cents a min during " prime " hours 😂
Thank you. Needed these words to apply to my own financial situation.
Great episode need to talk more about this
Taking this good advice into my personal life today. I want to thank you for sharing with this with is today I really appreciate it ❤❤.
You really needed advice not to spend more than you earn ? These 2 acting like it's so hard to live off NFL minimum contracts which is more than 97% of law abiding tax paying citizens make
God bless these two. I’ve gained more knowledge listening to unc talk about life than I’ve learned in my four years of college.
Money talk, we all need this
all present and future players of all sports should watch this and take heed. This is some good information.
Love you guys. I enjoyed this conversation regarding saving a few pennies for a rainy day. ❤
I wish y’all knew how much this convo has helped me!! I work and own a janitorial cleaning business. High mortgage payment. At 33 years old but I’m blessed!! I’m not making a million dollar YET but this has inspired me to seek a financial advisor! Thanks guy!
God bless you and your business Shawn. It takes steps to get to where you wanna be. Keep going young man, you got this!
@ yes sir. Thank you for the encouragement!!
Being a business owner should of made you financially responsible - u really needed UNC to tell you not to buy over priced 💩?
@ yes sir 💪🏾
19:15 dude, that’s really touching. 😢 damn, I hope it’s still like that in the league because camaraderie is huge.
This is the best conversation you could ever have for the viewers that look up to you and our younger generation watching guy peace and love family!
one of the best episodes yet…down to earth and necessary
This was needed for a youngin like me. Appreciate y'all Fr !
You know, I never really heard Ocho talk or do interviews fo some reason during his days playing, but he seems like a cool dude
This is dope. Brothas like you two are much needed. 🙏❤️
This is an excellent episode. They should do more episodes like this
This is probably their BEST show, and they need to take this topic on the road; to high schools, colleges, to the financial planning classes of professional athletes, military transitioning programs, etc. Thanks Unc and Ocho for sharing!👍🏿✌🏿
Meh , it's not difficult to live on NFL contract $
Dennis Northcutt was a Arizona Wildcat legend
Northcutt was a God on campus in Tucson. I was there!!
This is such an important episode and I appreciate you beautiful men for educated, not only the players, but regular 9-5 workers also. 🙏
Great conversation guys ! I love when you talk about Finances.
Much respect to both you guys. So proud of each of you
Ocho be cracking me up when Unc be telling stories three words lol I love you 😂😅😂😅🤰🫃🫄
That Rick Flair Woo took me out 😂
Unc n ocho are the very very best.they tell it like it is.keep up yall great work.
Ocho smartened up after that initial lesson. Shannon was smart enough to follow advice given. They both followed a disciplined approach to their financial situation. So many can learn from them.
Man I love these conversations Unc & Ocho!! 🔥💯💪🏾
This conversation you just has is great saving money, I love being cheap I have never owned a new car and I'm sure I never will. All I like is old school and I don't mind working on my cars or homes it's a blessing listening to both you guys thank you!
This Segment Is Going To Age Well
I gotta say, it feels good to hear financial talk from people with a similar backround as me. I didnt get that when i was younger.
Don't u hate it when ya money jump funny?😂😂😂
😂😂
😂😂
Great to hear how you guys help out people who are respectful.
I am a everyday working guy, career now in year 27, never made more than $80k a year and I can retire now at 50, 401k, pension, savings, owe a little on my home car paid off, little debt. if I want to retire I can, as I am set, so no matter how much or how less money you make, live within your means and don't waste money is the moral of the story. I agree with Shannon as I also got the I'm pregnant notification 27 years ago, and I had the same response as unc.
WELL DONE NIGHT CAP
Dennis Northcutt a true og looking out for a division rival that's unheard of but thats love props Ocho for hitting him back on the ASAP. Bengals 🐯 and Browns 🐕
This was a great segment guys salute
I loveeee that they always talk about finances on this show but i loooovveee how long this segment was and how they both shared their misfortunes with money but was able to turn it around! Salute to them both
Reason baseball players get paid so much is because teams don't have a salary cap. Also baseball players unions are way stronger than in NFL/NBA. In NFL, everyone trying to get paid quickly instead of holding out, and there's always someone next in line willing to work for less. NFL players could learn something from baseball players about self organizing and sacrificing for better pay.
Most baseball players defer their payments. So if I make 30 mill if you defer it u will only receive 5 mill. Baseball guys are ahead of the curve
Exactly ! If everybody did what Lamar did it would work. Know your value !
@certifiedchaos4643 That's literally a lie... MOST baseball players don't make millions of dollars, period. MOST baseball players, make $50k-$120k per year in the minors. They don't have the ability to DEFER anything. Stop lying on the internet. Most baseball players go BROKE too. 4x the national average, MLB players go BANKRUPT within 5yrs of leaving the major leagues. They aren't AHEAD of any curve.
But where does the money come from is what he is asking.
@@darrellmcnair9858 ....162 game season, ticket sales... TV deals... Jersey Sales in baseball are INSANE. They just make a boatload of money in the sport. It's not confusing.
This is by far the best episode of NC! Some great financial lessons no matter your income level.
Thanks gentlemen
I have coworker who has rim protection. 😳 what the heck rim protection for your rims on your car? She said when your rims get scuffed backing into curb or anything rims get replaced. I said it's a car my rims scuffed plenty of times because I hit the curbside to close. Oh well Insurance companies doing too much.😮
Love stories like this. Listening to great free financial advice. Being Discipline isn’t easy
This show is priceless most people don't understand money
Straight from Baltimore Shanon I feel you unc I respect that because their is nothing bigger than you and your family
Excellent conversations 💯💯
I have so much respect for Shannon. To hear him talk about how he’s working on providing for his family that’s not even born yet.
Thanks for keeping it real
Man this the best podcast on TH-cam they keep it so real it’s crazy
This is a great post about money. They told some great stories
I like how both guys talked about the players who looked out for them when they were going thru their financial problems.
“WE ain’t playing… PUUNKS!!” HAS to be a meme format
Best discussion on the interwebs thus far. Thank you for sharing your stories.
Deion Sanders, Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Eli Manning, Michael Strahan, Pat McCafee ,
Shannon Sharpe, Chad Johnson, Charles Woodson. The only 9 former Players in the past 20 years to still be making $Millions after they retired from the NFL.
Troy Aikman too
@@UnsilencedOutspokenTikTok , correct. Troy Aikman & Tony Romo too. TV Broadcasting $ & other endorsements.
Ryan Clark
@@Milton-tx6wprc probably making more off the field. Probably 500k a year on ESPN. IDK how much he make off his pod
Terry Bradshaw too.
