Athlete easily.



If you are in the NFL or MLB, depending on who are you are you might be able to go to public places without anybody knowing who you are. I mean look at the two teams that played in the most recent Superbowl, between BOTH teams there's only like 5 or 6 players tops the common person would be familiar with :pachaha:







Plus if you play your cards right and you can live a comfortable life as a retired athlete with little work.

I would be an athlete.

MLB or NBA player (no nfl) or European soccer
8 year career
2 championships
4x all star
2x all sport (mlb, nba, soccer)
3x league leader in something (defense, HR, etc)
Nike/Jordan Brand athlete, no signature shoe
Multiple local and national endorsement deals

Or

5 albums (2 5x platinum)
70 million in worldwide sales
3 street certified “classic” mixtapes
2 headliner world tours
Own 65% of masters
Had clothing and liquor line, sold stake for $85M
Multiple national endorsements

Both sound tempting tho. They both have their pros and cons

This is life….


The Bobby Bonilla contract refers to a deferred payment agreement between the New York Mets and Bobby Bonilla, resulting in annual payments of nearly $1.2 million to Bonilla every July 1st until 2035. This unique situation, dubbed "Bobby Bonilla Day," has become an annual event celebrated by baseball fans.

Here's a more detailed breakdown:
    • The Original Contract:
      In 2000, the Mets bought out the remaining $5.9 million of Bonilla's contract, which was set to expire after the 1999 season.
    • The Deferred Payment Plan:
      Instead of paying the full amount immediately, the Mets agreed to defer the payment, adding 8% interest, and pay Bonilla $1,193,248.20 annually starting in 2011.
    • The "Bobby Bonilla Day" Phenomenon:
      This annual payment, due on July 1st, is what has become known as "Bobby Bonilla Day".
    • Longevity of Payments:
      Bonilla will continue to receive these payments until 2035, when he will be 72 years old.

Athlete, not close.

May not be a household name, but I don’t think people understand how small rapoers’ paychecks really are, especially today.

Music business is designed for you to get hosed.

People talk alot of shyt about athletes being tricks but damn in most of this rip sports you gotta train hard maintain diet be discreet when you outside, travel all the time etc. honestly none of that sounds compatible with a regular monogamous relationship.

As dumb as it looks paying for whores is really the best option. Also if you been playing sports since high school with bytches always on your jock there's really no such thing as learning game

I would choose to be an prime A-list actor over both. Movie/Netflix show Acting requires less talent/effort than music and sports. It’s the least time wasting, and mentally/intellectually/physically/emotionally exhausting entertainment field of the three. Compared to rappers/athletes, actors literally get the most wealth, clout and fame while doing the least.

To be a successful, wealthy and popular rapper requires talent, innovation/creative abilities, voice/ flow/cadence, stamina/endurance(worldwide tours aint easy on the heart/mind/body) your own cool style/identity, emotional intelligence, charisma, presence/aura, intriguing personality/background, life stories, verbal intelligence, songwriting skills, great beat selection for songs, connections to important people in the music industry, the it factor, etc.

To be a high profile elite athlete you need player development, years of practice (practice makes perfect) talent, genetics, clear physical/athletic advantages, mental,psychological and emotional toughness, great mobility/agility/endurance/speed/injury recovery ability, impeccable memory, exceptional visual/spatial skills, observation/anticipation skills. and pattern recognition skills, high iq, discipline, work ethic, ability and willpower to delay immediate gratification, healthy habits, elite diet, training, etc

By comparison….. Being a a list netflix/movie actor requires Conventional/standard « good looks » , aura, charisma (optional)and definitely connections to important people in the the movie/Hollywood industry. You just have to show up on movie sets and play your roles. Many times actors even choose their own roles for the movies they want to be in. Many of the current actors in Hollywood are actually nepo babies right now. They benefit from nepotism Because most of their parents/uncles/aunts were also actors or work in the industry. You can argue that there are much more industry plants in Hollywood than in music. P’empty of boring and mediocre actors who are promoted by Hollywood and forced on the people. For Example: Channing Tatum, Kristen Stewart and Jennifer Lawrence comes to mind


Maybe even social influencer or streamer if you want to be rich and famous without selling your soul(we all know that casting couches are real in the music/movie industry. Professional sport is not like that because it’s a pure meritocracy. You can do all the :dame: demonic shyt in the world and it won’t turn you into a connor mcdavid, Lewis Hamilton, shohei Ohtani, Tiger woods, Lebron james, Lionel Messi or Lamar Jackson lol.)
