Swantavius Jones has made a ton of cash in his 6 seasons in the ISFL. As a former first overall pick, and as Berlin's first ever draft selection, his marketability was through the roof. Cashing in on various sponsorship deals was easy, though it was a task that Swantavius left up to his agent to take care of. Half the time, Jones didn't even know what products he was supposed to be endorsing.
In any case, Swantavius made sure that the money was well invested. With every monthly paycheck, he was go and exchange 60% of the amount with gold, and then proceeded to bury it all over his land. And any time he ran out of places to hide the gold, he would buy more land. As of the time of writing, Swantavius owns around 70 acres of unused farmland, with the majority of his career earnings buried somewhere underneath it all. His manager has tried to warn him off of this approach, and convince him to invest it in a low yield savings bond, or even an index tracker fund, but Swantavius is a simple man and likes to know exactly where his money is.
He is hoping that it will be a long time before he needs to dig it up again!
