I don't have that Lamar Jackson money but I'm not doing too bad.
Thanks for the compliment, my brother.

Thanks for the compliment, my brother. Hell yea good shit!! I plan on doing my own thing in the near future!!Man, I love the fact that Lamar represented himself. To hell with all of this "needing" an agent B.S. That's the crutch of the "system" talking and Lamar, Roquan and a few other NFL players (present and past) refuse to operate within it. Lamar said it best when he was asked if he will secure an agent or continue to represent himself going forward when he said; "I wouldn't want to put my trust in anyone else." I don't blame him!
I once had a job years ago (before I started my own company) and decided to walk away from it. When it came to my severance pay, the employer asked me; "Now we can prorate this 6-figure severance to you over a few months or give it to you in a lump sum. Which do you prefer?" My exact words to him were: "Give me the lump sum upfront because no one can manage my money better than me!" Since then, my business has sky-rocketed and my family is set up financially.
Lamar kept that agent's percentage in the family for generations to come. Way to go Lamar!
YesssssirCongratulations to you my man! That's awesome! There is nothing like being entrepreneurial and working for yourself! Lots of freedom and flexibility come with being your own boss.
When you are first getting your business off the ground it takes a lot of your time, energy, and effort. Building trust with return clients, customers and the community takes time. Do your best to operate with integrity and ethics and great things will happen for you. Also, learn to practice delayed gratification and then one day, you will be able to live the lifestyle that you have dreamed of in the near future and that you are working hard for in the present.
Peep the wheels (for inspiration) that my wife bought for me a few months ago:

Thanks my dude, I know my trade but the business side of it, I can only learn as I go, and that’s what I intend to do.

That's awesome! We need more cats to go against the status quo (like Lamar lol) and do their own thing by being entrepreneurial. Good luck to you going forward. You can do it!

yeah just happy hes back
sorry I'm only responding today. On the cruse we were on in March we met a couple that lived in Annapolis and they invited us onto their boat. We took their boat to Kent Island for lunch at Libbey's, formerly known as Hemingway's. We then went into Annapolis for the rest of the day and had a very nice dinner with them at Chop Tank.
I'm interested as well @JoeyFlex5

The worst part of it all is getting back on social media. I hate feeling exposed.

Fun fact, my fav all time player is Suggs and for whatever reason the only Ravens jersey I own belongs to CJ Mosley (it was a gift)

As weird as that sounds, I get it. I don't really wear jerseys often even during the season. Once in a blue moon, I'll wear one during the offseason. I'm just more into t-shirts (more variety of designs to choose from).
