THE HIGHS AND LOWS
Lessons from bad investments
We want to push past the "athletes go broke" narrative, but I don't know anyone who's batted .1000 on investments. We praise the highs on Athletes & Assets™, but we also share the lows and lessons from it.
Dallas Cowboys Safety Malik Hooker is one of my favorite guests in recent memory. The 9 year NFL Veteran previews the upcoming season and also opens up regarding his personal investing journey. With a video game investment that went wrong, it was a wake-up call on the need for financial literacy and becoming educated on the topics that matter most in the boardroom.
Our full conversation can be found on all platforms. Please like/subscribe to support us so we can continue to get on incredible guests like Malik.
For the folks who work with athletes on sourcing investments, I'd love to chat and learn about the advantages and challenges you face.
TPF X TPC
The merger of the week
The Players Company, an athlete led-syndicate fund with education and events tied to it, has partnered with the UK-based Players Fund, one of the first athlete-led generalist Venture Capital firms based in Europe.
This formal partnership is now enabling the companies to co-create global events, develop shared digital infrastructure and communities, launch an education program with the Global Institute of Sport, and deepen athlete participation in the private markets for 850+ athletes.
Shoutout to my guys Fergus and Sheldon on the partnership. Only seems like a natural evolution, another positive sign in the industry of things moving forward.
Shel was on our show in 2022. Here’s the link for a major throwback! Lots changed since then!
