      This tends to be one of two things: 1) An ineffective financial advisor or one who steals from you ( write your own checks) or 2) Not listening to your financial advisor when you actually have one who knows what he's doing.

      As someone who works in wealth management I can confidently say that most people are getting completely ripped off if they're paying for a financial advisor. However, most people also don't know a single thing about saving and investing, and simply don't want to think about money so they'd rather pay someone to handle it for them.

      Bruh it's 2024... NBA been running for years... draft every year... why is it hard to see that these dudes are CONTROLLED PUPPETS.... the entire society is a pyramid structure... it's an agenda.... black men in mass are not supposed to be associated with intelligence growth wealth etc. That's the white man's playground in HIS SYSTEM... so these brothers who sign contracts for white man's money have to do what they demand or else your cut and replaced.... that's why it's never any real detail provided for all these players YEAR AFTER YEAR AFTER YEAR.. meanwhile on this same earth you got SCAMMER NGAS ONLINE WHO DONE FLIPPED A 10TH OF WHAT THESE DUDES MAKE INTO BUSINESSES AND INVESTMENTS.... AS proof there are black men from the hood who can be smart with money... and gives more credit to the theory that these NFL and NBA players are all controlled until retirement.. why isn't the story the player invested in realists this guy invested in restaurant this guy invest in basketball skill program etc ???? Cause the AGENDA IS... black men under the wet man's system are not supposed to be associated with elite status as if it's rocket science on money management... it isnt... but folks are to brainwashed and duped by icons to see the whole picture and its details in regard to the entire economy flow in america.... these dudes sell out for the moment and cannot do real wealth building with their MONITORED MONEY... or ask your self.. why aren't elite white males who own the NBA investing in financial management schemes for their players upon retirement as payback for being FAN ATTRACTING PLAYERS FOR THEIR BILLION DOLLAR NBA INDUSTRY ???? RIGHT cause the white man is operating as to never push black men FORWARD... this shit is all Gaye by for people who can't read between the lines....

While they are income stratified, 470,000+ is all taxes at 37%. any nba player making mid level and up has the *vast majority of his income taxed at 37% fed rate. That doesnt include state tax, and because there is "jock tax" youre not assessed at the rate of the home state you play in for all 82 games, any event you play in on the road, you pay the taxes of that state. so Cali, NY, NJ, and IL games, they pay an additional 9-13% of *state income tax*
      They are absolutely losing 50% of their pretax income BEFORE NBA dues and agent fees come into account.

Put another $1M in a high yield savings account and use the interest to cover the property taxes every year. There you go people, that’s how you make your money last for generations. Now you got $2.6M for toys (pool, gym, in home theater, etc) but put your great grandchildren before the toys, not the other way around.
