Zephyr hasn’t thought much about his financial future. Money is still a strange concept for Zephyr to grasp. Wolves don’t use money. Every member of the pack has a role and their responsibility is always to the pack. Zephyr doesn’t live in the woods anymore and will need to start thinking about his financial future. He has started hearing stories of players that went broke shorty after retirement and worries the same could happen to him. Zephyr is now making smart financial choices like investing in crypto currencies. Zephyr has millions left over from his contract after only renting a flat and not needing to buy much. Zephyr just needs a couch to sleep on and plenty of room to run. So he is putting all his money into crypto currency. The crypto Doge coin has the picture of a dog. Zephyr sees this as a sure thing and invests 2 million into that coin. Then Zephyr see Shiba Inu with a fox logo. Zephyr puts 2 million into this coin as well. Lastly Zephyr finds Doggy with a dog logo. Zephyr likes dogs and so he puts his last 2 million into that coin. Now Zephyr has all his money in safe secure crypto currency. Zephyr still doesn’t know much about crypto currency or even really what it is but he is sure by the time he retires he will have all the money he needs.

Apparently LaDamien Beck is not doing enough because, based on the player balances bot, he is $2 million in the hole. As dirt poor as you can get. His manager is about to kick him into shape because he promised to be a great player and no great player has negative money to start out. I guess the media pieces will start rolling. When he finally does get his fortune, Beck will definitely put it all away for safe keeping because this poorness does not become him. With a keen interest in airplanes, he will put all his investments in Delta airlines - and hope another pandemic shutdown doesn't come. Once he retires from the league after making the big bucks, he will focus on the local animal shelters in the Tijuana area and start his own reality show called Beck's Buds. Ultimately though, since LaDamien is the offshoot of his brother, Marcel's, interest in sports, Marcel will be the one to support him. Marcel has like $35 million already in the SHL and is living pretty. Maybe groveling is more LaDamien's style? Either way he gets his money, he is bound and determined to retire old and stay posh forever. With our without the help of his brother.

There are many ways to plan for a financial future after football. I like the Rob Gronkowski plan of essentially not spending any of his salary or bonus money at all. He is able to save that money and the money he spends he makes from his endorsements. There's a reason you see Gronk in a ton of different commercials all the time. He's making the money he spends on food and a mortgage and whatever else he spends his money on by doing that stuff. In the meantime he's able to do things like invest with the money he makes from playing football, so that when he does retire he'll have millions set aside so he can live the rest of his life comfortably. Now for Sir Peter Jackson his plan is a bit different, because while he is playing football he is not directing or producing movies. In his downtime he's been writing and planning multiple movies that he plans to make upon retiring from football. So while he will retire from football he won't be retiring from work altogether. Instead he'll go back to making blockbuster hits and hopefully win some more Oscars and other awards while doing it. But for most players the Gronk route is what works best.
Financial planning isnt just important for football players. Everyone needs to be aware of their financial plan. I'm by no means an expert, but the earlier in life you start working on this stuff the better you'll be off in the future. If you don't know anything about this stuff but want to shoot me a message on Discord and I can lead you in the right path.

A lot of folks out there seems to think that life is a cake walk once you make the ISFL. It is a commonly held belief that you will be living on easy street the rest of your life after you retire. Well, I have seen far too many teammates fall into the unfortunate predicament of finding themselves broke not long after they hang up their cleats. I am not going to let that happen to me. In the grand scheme of things I am not one of the richest guys in the league so I have a plan: whoring myself out to any and every sponsorship deal that comes knocking.

Shortly after being drafted by the Norfolk Seawolves, Spike Daniels hired a financial advisor and made arrangements to invest a substantial portion of his income. He resisted the allure of "meme stocks" like GME and AMC in favor of traditional diversified investments in low-cost index funds. His immediate future is secure thanks to the financial flexibility afforded by his professional salary, so he maintains a portfolio that aims for steady, sustained growth rather than taking high risks for quick profit. Besides traditional investing, Spike was inspired by the business success of LeBron James outside of his basketball career, and specifically by LeBron and Rich Paul's agency, Klutch Sports. Recognizing that long-term financial stability as a professional athlete is never guaranteed, and that even a successful professional football career is short, he wanted to establish successful side ventures as soon as possible, using the financial means available to him as a professional athlete. A portion of Spike's rookie contract provided the funds to start Sundial Sports, a sports management partnership between Spike himself and a close friend from Northwestern. Starting with Spike as their initial client, Sundial hired additional agents and brought in athletes from the SHL and EFL. Sundial remains a small agency, but has been successful so far and appears to be set up for sustained success. Given the success of Sundial, Spike is always actively looking for additional opportunities, and has met with other former classmates to discuss business ideas, including a marketing and branding consultancy aimed at college athletes and built around the new NCAA name, image, and likeness rules.

Redbeard McFredbeard, like many other players, has launched a business to try and keep himself financially afloat once the ISFL salaries dry up. This is especially necessary since he is only being paid 3m while having over 1,000 TPE, which should entitle the great Redbeard McFredbeard to a paycheck of 5m per season, not a measly three. But that is another issue for another time. Redbeard is launching a brand of beard care products that are similar to Dollar Shave Club. But instead of being designed to cut your glorious facial hair, Redbeard’s product is designed to help you style your beard into something glorious. You subscribe to the service online, give your payment info and address, and within a few days a box will be delivered right to your door with some trimmers and all the gels, shampoos, moisturizers, and anything else you could possibly need to make your beard look wonderful. But, more importantly, each box will come with a step-by-step guide that is written by Redbeard himself on how to create something special with your facial hair, such as the squirrel that Redbeard crafted to wow the crowds during his beard-styling professional career. While he gave that up for football, he figured he could at least use his talents to help grow the beard-styling sport so that children one day in the future can make a viable career out of it instead of having to play football and give themselves CTE to earn a living.

ok yeah gonna be agree with this PT, not just for american football player, but also all kind of athlete, want to share what i will do to make that thing didn't happen. Ok so at first you can see what Martin Braithwaite (barcelona player) do, he is the second richest player in barcelona, wait hold on, i think he is the first now since messi is already leave. Ok so how can he do that? he have real estate agency, he really do something when he still playing so maybe when he retire he will not become broke. so maybe i think i will do the same, try to start real estate agent, really going great this kind of time. the next thing i will do is do trading, haven't done any but want to start doing crypto currency trading, i think it's really one thing that i can do now, or maybe just put the money in one of the crypto currency, then leave it for a couple of year, i hope it will get bigger ahahhaha. ok last thing and the one i want to do the most, making coffee shop, yeah coffee shop that have great coffee, and sell bakery as well, with my own recipe of course. You doubting my recipe? ok so why don't you see the sim league cook book, i think i submit 1 menu there, you should try making it

Marlon Brando, in order to ensure he doesn’t go broke after retiring from his illustrious acting job, has to hop on all the new trends. Bitcoin, cryptocurrency, NFT’s, all that fun and new stuff. Does he know what any of those are? Absolutely not, but that’s just part of the fun! He will create his own coin, Blorglcoin, and it will be amazing. I expect every single person in the league to invest in Blorglcoin, and spread it to their friends. Actually, Marlon Brando will be making a pyramid scheme out this. He will sell Blorglcoin to every person in the league, and they will sell it to their friends, and so on. Soon enough, Marlon Brando won’t just be in the clear, he’ll be completely rich. Sure, at some point people will catch on and be like “hey wait a second, isn’t this a pyramid scheme?”, but the Brando will run away, and his blazing 85 speed will be too fast to catch. While all his friends and family that he took advantage of to make a quick buck weep in despair at falling for a pyramid scheme, Brando will be on one of his many private yachts drinking a martini and enjoying his newfound wealth.
