Non-Fiction | Self-Help Money
A successful NBA veteran offers essential financial
management advice for athletes, their families, and the fans
to help them protect and keep their wealth. Over his
sixteen-year career, former NBA center Adonal Foyle has
watched other pros burn through their salaries, endorsement,
and merchandising money, creating serious financial and
legal hardships. While top professional athletes make
millions, many have little in their bank accounts soon after
hanging up their jerseys. Sixty percent of NBA players are
broke within five years of retirement. Nearly eighty percent
of NFL players are strapped within two years of
retirement. Winning the Money Game offers
much needed advice and insight to help these players—and the
rest of us—manage money better. Drawing on experiences from
his career, as well as interviews with current and retired
athletes and financial pros, Foyle compiles a comprehensive
list of money pitfalls as well as practical approaches to
avoid them. In his straightforward, warm, and humorous
voice, he breaks down expenses point by point, from taxes to
luxury goods to family needs, outlining essential dos and
don’ts to help you spend, save, and grow your money
wisely. Smart, concise, and packed with proven advice,
Winning the Money Game is a life guide for pros—and
everyone who wants to protect their wealth.
