Idk he may be on the something. That tech shyt is the wave now, these folks making these little startups/apps and selling them shyts for millions and billions. He got the money so why not?

Anybody successful will tell you you have to take risks to make it. All of yall who hating and being negative about it is the same people who will never become rich. If you not born with it you got work ya ass off.
The difference is...

The people selling their apps/work actually built them, and understand their value/vision. This shyt that Melo is doing sounds like he's a bank. I mean, people have all read stories on how bad investments can lead to people going broke. Especially when you're being provided with the "ideas" and they're just looking for the go ahead to spend/invest YOUR money.

This has to be a :troll: article, right???

I mean, they wrote this with the intent to troll us all, right???!!!
I can understand his desire to growth his wealth...but this...this is bad news waiting to happen. So many terrible gems in that article...

The screen shows nine investments that Anthony and Goldfarb have already made -- one more has been announced publicly since, and two or three more are due in the coming weeks. They have staked tens of thousands of dollars into a company that creates digital children's books and into an education venture that trains programmers in Africa. Some investments relate to sports -- like SeatGeek, a search engine for event tickets -- but Anthony has also put tens of thousands of dollars into ride-sharing (Lyft), a smart nutrition scale (Orange Chef) and voice messaging (Cord Project). He plans to make several dozen investments, with the expectation that more than half of the companies will fail and a few will do moderately well.

So that's the plan?? Invest tens of thousands of dollars and watch that bubble to a billion???!!!??? Go Melo!!

So Melo tries to extend his money for life after basketball & ya'll hating?

Bro, aint people funny? :mjlol:

If dude only focused on basketball and never tried to use his millions to grow, n#ggas gon say "Melo, stupid. I would've taken those millions and flipped that again and again. I'd be a billionaire by the time I reitred" :troll:

If dude talks about trying to expand himself and break beyond his comfort zone, then he's stupid and doesn't care about basketball at all.

One thing is for sure, people always going to talk.

This dude has advisors and millions for a rainy day. As long as dude doesn't drop every penny of his salary into this venture, then he'll be more than fine. But let people tell it and he'll be on the street by 2020.

Congrats for dude thinking beyond the game and starting to make moves now. As opposed to waiting until his playing days are over and he has no more millions coming in.

Peace

Melo SHOULD be looking at life outside of basketball...that's not the issue here. The issue is that he sounds like a fu*king kindergartner...he's playing checkers and everyone else is playing chess...

Camelo and Wade always seemed like they have better things to worry about than basketball.

I can't blame them because there are many players out there that have rings and are broke after they retire :manny:
