Why do athletes have to live a lavish lifestyle??
They too often have people who matter to them in their ears giving them the worst advice.
How can someone who's living awful really help you manage your millions.
Also sometimes the people who SHOULD be your biggest supporters are instead your greatest liabilities.
Im blessed to know that If I'd went big, my family is generally comfortable enough to not come to me for anything.
My parents cleared $200k+ in the 90s, my sister is approaching that by herself now.
No leech no losses.
That would be totally different if I had parents bleating about "owing it back" etc, and "you got it, stop being selfish".
Your network is your networth, and you being the sole fat cat means to everyone else you're the food.
