Good for him. He obviously understands what it means to have a small earnings window.

So his gold diamond studded teeth were covered by Delta Dental?

True, and AK recognizes that NFL contracts are barely worth the paper they are written on. This $75M contract has "only" $34 million guaranteed with a couple non-guaranteed years on the end that the Saints will likely not pay/renegotiate. Obviously, $34MM is a lot of money but many NFL players in his shoes have a lifestyle based on that $75M funny-money amount.

If he continues to make good moves, he can parlay that 75M into 250M and much more.

He’s an NFL RB. Odds are, everything after about year 5 is a roll of the dice. Those guys don’t have good shelf lives.

If I was AK I'd talk to the Mannings and invest along with the Manning family so his money would grow every year safely.

That;s how Peyton and Tom Brady keep making $$$$ no matter what happens.

VFL...GBO!!!

I doubt the Saints plan to keep him on a shelf.
Would mean less wear and tear, but he wouldn't be earning his salary that way.

Likeness money.

Did you read the article? He lives off endorsement money.

I’m talking about the injury risk. RBs have become disposable parts. I think the average career is now under 3 years.

You don't read good, do yunz?

 

[utvolpj]

Very smart but I do hope he gets some assistance on investing that money. Could be generational

I am now on the side that he needs to be used more by UT. Anyone watching the NFL knows him and he could be a draw

 

[VolBricks]

Good for AK, he could have a job working for the NFL teaching incoming players the value of a dollar and how to save.

 

[JRich]

Nice to hear. He should invest his football money. Turn that $30 million into $300 million.

Read the article. He only spends money he makes on endorsements.

 

[therickbol]

The obvious joke here is that he does not need to spend his NFL money because he is still living off his Alabama signing bonus.

OK.....I just spewed Mtn. Dew on my laptop. Thanks a lot.

Tom & Peyton married more in 5 minutes then they could earn in a lifetime

Alvin just wants to keep himself "regular" people.He is said to walk home after home Saints games,and has people walk along with him to his place which is(was )in the French Quarter.Just keep a supply of watermelon Airheads handy.He has fun in what he does on the field.In point of fact,most financial advisers are carefree with clients finances because ,like most stockbrokers,they get a commission when you buy,and they get a commission when you sell.

I am a financial advisor. People raised like this don’t need me. Hats off to Alvin’s mom.

Stupid.
Jealousy oozes from stupid sh*t like this.

Yes he did but stop trying to make it like he isn't stupid wealthy himself
