more than we’re making!

Congrats to Lamont!

I wanna give him the same advice that I’d give everyone who’s gone over there:

Don’t spend your money. Definitely don’t spend it like it’s not going to run out, because it will. Save, invest, and try not to get caught up in bigtiming it. If you eventually get the $10 mil NBA deal, you can splurge a little, but even $250k runs out real fast if you don’t get re-signed.

Mack probably has the ability to carve out a decent little career for a few years playing. Dont know what the $ will be, but need to plan like it’s going to be a short career, and then if he exceeds that, good for him.

awesome news!

Euros > Dollars

Good for him- hope he does well

I hope someone from the school is keeping in touch with him.
