Shaquille O'Neal's One Key Piece of Business Advice

And I was talking to a supermodel. You have the game plan coming out on February 17th on Turner Sports. How do you feel that it's about to come out?

Man, I feel pretty good. You know we dealt with six individuals in the Atlanta area. You know, a lot of people just don't get the looks, just don't get the eyes, just don't get the chance, but I want to be the one to you know, give them that chance. You know what I mean?

For sure. And you go through, you streetwear, you're putting eyes on, you know, food consumer package goods. So what is one thing that you personally can't live without, like your sneaker collection, clothes, what do you

I can't live without Netflix, Hulu. I can't live without my dad's char jus. I can't definitely can't live without my iPhone. And I definitely can't live without laughing. That's it.

And also you you give a lot of business advice in the show. So what is some business advice that you give to your own sons?

Well, one I tell them to stop always focusing on the monetary aspect. Yeah. Like my older son Miles, he's got me into the NFTs. You can make you can make, but I told him stop. Stop how much you can make. You have done. Do it because you enjoy it. Yeah. Do it because you want to build Discord communities. Totally. You because you want to, you know, engage in something that's new and exciting. Don't always worry about the monetary aspect. Every time I worry about the monetary aspect of something, it never goes well. Been doing this since 92. Nothing. Nothing that I said, I'm going to invest in this and in 10 years, I'm going to sell it. It never, it never works out that way. Things that I thought were pretty good, like the first time I had to start precious with alliance, SCN Group. I see Google. I forgot all about it. And then one day, they were bragging in the paper about being early investors in Google, and my accountant called me and was like, hey, you got a big one here. So, ever since then, I said I need to stop worrying about how much money I can make every time I, you know, do something.

That's good advice for them. And you've had big special guests on the show, you have Quavo. We just a few months ago interviewed Quavo. So, what's it like being like having special guests on to be able to work through like business advice and everything with everybody?

I think it'll be good. It'll be good if it was the first time meeting them, but I've been knowing these guys for a long time. So they're actual friends. And they have a little bit more expertise. Can you get that shout right there? They have a little bit more expertise. You know I, I pride myself in not being the smartest guy in the world. As I was going to start a new exciting paper for young women. I will definitely call you. I let you run it, I let you manage it. Because I know you know more about that space than I do. Yeah. So it's always good to have friends and partners and you know, people that that know a little bit more than you.

Yeah. And then real quick before we end, so when I was 10, I was a Sports Illustrated kid reporter. And so I went to the Sports Illustrated headquarters in New York City and I actually tried on your shoe. You wear. Isn't that so weird? Thank you so much and congrats on the game plan coming out soon and thank you for taking the time to talk to us face-to-face.

All right. Thank you. No problem, anytime.
