Ever wonder what happens when an NBA star actually invests smart? Luol Deng, former Laker, flipped his $166M basketball earnings into a $200M real estate empire—think luxury hotels, resorts, and even casinos. The big shift? More athletes are skipping the flashy cars and instead buying up apartment buildings and hotels. Deng’s secret sauce: he started early, found mentors, and invested in places he cared about, like Chicago and East Africa. Proof you don’t need a finance degree to make your money work for you! #RealEstate #MoneyMoves #NBA
