Here is just an image I saw. I thought it was interesting.

The skills that get a professional athlete to the level where they're making millions are not the same skills that can help them keep that money or grow it. This is why all college athletes should take courses on money management and investing.

Or why a professional athlete (or someone who would be trusted by a pro athlete) who is smart with finances should start a business teaching pro athletes how to invest/spend wisely.

Also, I love how someone put all that time and effort into putting this together and then above "Vacation Spending" for NFL players it says "$10,00.00" Wow! A whole ten dollars! Haha.

I read an article in Worth Magazine years ago that Joe Montana is doing this. It is a private wealth management firm he founded.

I'm not sure if he is still doing this, though. I've not heard about it for years.
