Legs is all about and assets that will improve his overall leg size as his small legs right now or something self-conscious about and wants to change in the future as well as wants to help other people who may be suffering from the same issues he is develop larger lives that they don't have to go through the same pain that he does on a day to day basis. one of the main ways he is doing this is investing in surgical tools that will help stop people from developing small legs and making sure that everyone has relatively normal size legs.

Unfortunately money management can be a tricky thing, especially if you are given a large amount and have never seen that kind of money before, that is definitely something ISFL players run into, without the next years paycheck coming in, it is hard to change life style. A.J. Lucas is investing, as a lot of people are right now. He could talk up the investments but that would be pretty boring but putting a large chunk into some future profits is what it is all about and a diverse portfolio is what A.J. is going for, there is a bit of crypto in there...who doesn't love a gamble. The rest going into stocks of a wide variety, mostly sustainable businesses so that he can feel good about his money not doing bad things like funding wars or pumping waste into rivers. Perhaps even a business in the future might be an option, but not sure for now on that front. Some simple study might help and if A.J. wants to maintain financial freedom then he will likely go after a job perhaps coaching a team or commentating. There are a lot of positions out there for someone who can confidently string words together in a coherent sentence, maybe A.J. will be that guy.

Having grown up in a household that struggled with poverty, Ernest has always been careful with his money. He also understands the value of having stable financial flows throughout his lifetime (not just during his football career). This is why his most important investment for his financial future was in himself, his wife, and their respective educations. With his degree in sports psychology and his experience in the International Simulation Football League (ISFL), Ernest is set up well to maintain a gainful career beyond his days as a player. Ernest also invested time and resources in supporting his wife’s education and career. It is their combined future income that lays the foundation for their financial future. This allows Ernest some flexibility to invest his ISFL contract in a way that furthers his financial future and continues to give back to disadvantaged communities. He has invested most of his liquid earnings through Mission Investors Exchange, an impact investment firm with the goal of reducing systemic anti-Black racism in the United States. With their advice, Ernest has provided startup funding and loans for Black-owned businesses and youth engagement programs around the Sarasota area. One of his favorite investments has been to renovate the old post office in his hometown of Romance, West Virginia (where his mother used to work) to a hair salon started by a former high school football teammate, which employs ex-convicts. And business has been booming!

With Zach Crossley's career reaching it's peak, it is time to think about life after football for the wide receiver. A long-time foodie, Crossley has decided to open a bakery that he will work at after his career has ended. The restaurant chain will be called Crossley's Coffee & Croissants. Zach hopes to open the first location in downtown San Jose as he has adopted the city as he permanent home. There are plans to expand into Philadelphia as that is Crossley's hometown. Outside of coffee and croissants, the restaurant will offer other baked goods including muffins and bagels. Breakfast sandwiches on the menu will be named after players that Crossley played with in San Jose. The first is the Ja Ja Japlendong, a bacon wrapped hotdog encased in side a turnover filled with Jalapeno Pepper Jack Cheese. The next item is Panda's Prime rib, a two egg, cheese and prime rib sandwich served on your choice of a bagel. A third item is the Jamar Lochsons, a simple lochs and cream cheese served on a plain bagel, with the option to add capers. The final sandwich that has been chosen is Monty's magnificent snack. It is just a simple bacon, egg and hashbrown on a everything bagel, but of course the egg is cooked with Monterey Jack cheese. Crossley's Coffee & Croissants should open in downtown San Jose this offseason, so look out for some great eats.

Sakeem Webb would like to consider himself to be a very financially stable person. He has started to buy shorts and invest in e-currencies such as bitcoin. But another he has done is invest in a number of bakeries around New York. His mother was a well known baker and has written a number of books. He has invested in his mother's business and given her the ability to manage many locations across the city of New York. They have recently began to specialize in the well-loved delicacy of the New York Bagel. Since opening the original store earlier this year, three more have opened and become frequently visited locations across the city. With an investment such as this one, there is always more income rolling in and he gets his family involved in the process of continued earning and saving! The best seller at Mama Webb's Bakery is the cinnamon honey roll, which is a honey glazed cinnamon roll with extra nuts. There is no doubt that financial problems can plague everyone, not just athletes, but with such a short career lifespan. Making sure you are taken care of and saving/investing your money is a ridiculously important thing. Sakeem is ready for the future and all thanks to the help of Mama Webb!

Lucky for new sim football league player Herc Kirkby, many of his inner and extended family are already professional sports people. His uncle is a hall of famer in the major hockey League as his cousins have already player both baseball and football professionally. Thus they already have a comprehensive investment team set up for the family to use. Because Herc is very forward thinking he would like a lot of his savings to go into a fund that prioritises green and renewable energy. The planet is already struggling and it is the only one we have so it makes sense to support products that ensure a better future. As well as this he is a major food lover so he would also look to open his own restaurant that serves all of his and his families favourite foods. Finally for some of the more boring additions to his portfolio he would put money into houses and crypto currency. Houses because their value inevitably always goes up and it is a safe bet to keep a large chunk of money in. Crypto currency because it seems like physical money is gradually being phased out and that things like bitcoin and Ethereum will be how everyone pays in the future.

A lot of players tend to not know how to handle jumping into the top 2% of the federal tax bracket; they land into a huge pile of money and live an unsustainable lifestyle that leaves them worse off than before they entered the league. Many players tend to blow their money on frivolous, materialistic items that depreciate in value and their bank accounts. Lacking the financial literacy to comprehend how to invest, divest, and grow one's personal wealth is a skill neglected by too many professional athletes. For Lesean Paris Crooks, he had the opportuity to be exposed to legalese and financial maneuvering due to his ventures as a musician. Since his high school days, Crooks has had to sign contracts and learn how to budget his money so he could pay off all his work expenses.
Crooks has never stopped his musical journey. He's used his football money to open his own studio. He is able to record and put out his music without having to pay for studio time. In fact, during the season, he rents his studio out to other artists and has saved that money to buy the property adjacent to the studio where he plans to build a bodega on the first floor, barbershop on the second floor, arcade on the 3rd floor. The main reason stemmed from not wanting to make so many late night runs when working heavy hours in the studio.
The next step would be to buy some properties across the way and build a complex of apartments, townhouses, or condominiums so that he and his people won't have to travel so much to get sleep. All the money he collects from renting and leasing would go to album production and those sales will allow him to maintain everything so he can keep the money flow consistent.
