Yeah private insurance isn't FDIC

okay? other than stating the obvious, what's your point? because the original point is that these athletes should have there money in fewer accounts that they can monitor and should be investing in dummy investments like index funds. no need for all these fancy advisors. all you need as an accountant to do your taxes and that's it.

What is your point, I didn't post or direct any comment towards you.
You posted me and said something completely irrelevant to what I posted.

As for your point, I disagree entirely. If you are banking you need multiple insured accounts at different banks on top of safe long term investment and you can augment that with some more riskier investment with expendable cash/money. That said that is a full time job, you can pay someone to arrange, but have the final signature yourself, so you can review what is happening and provide final say.

you originally told a poster that it was foolish to have you money in a few accounts because of the FDIC limits. i was just letting you know that that's not sound advice (at least not for the FDIC reasons) because private insurance exists and the government has not let reputable banks fail in the past. investment strategy is like arguing about a$$holes. but the point about "risky" investments is dumb IMO when you already have millions and have a short earning life. you need to be on asset protection and slowly growing that money. especially when you're under-educated in finance like most these brothers are and thus susceptible to getting took.

No I never said its foolish to have money in a few accounts, there is no need to lie about what was written on a forum where the shyt is easy to confirm.
You weren't just letting me know anything, you literally wrote to me about some shyt that made no sense regarding what I wrote. Period.
Nothing dumb about risky or high reward investments with expendable funds, its expendable funds for a reason.
You can take a multi-faceted investment approach, longterm low risk index investment, hedge fund investment, and a small percentage on VC or high risk investments. Nothing wrong with that.
Most of these guys are lazy and foolish, which is why they end up broke, instead of trying to cater to their stupidity they need to invest and educate themselves on their money. I can't care about their money more than they do.

As for FDIC
Someone else talked about FDIC insurance, another poster said is that real, and I posted FDIC facts. Simple as that.
Washington Mutual just failed, in 2009 140 banks failed in 2010 157 banks failed worth 92 billion
So banks fail all the time as well, just have to pay attention to your respective banks.

This is terrible, TERRIBLE advice.

Richard Jefferson should have a few million in safe investments, a few million in hard assets, a few million stashed in another currency, and maybe 1 to 2 million liquid (but spread out in different accounts).

There is absolutely zero chance he'd be able to keep up with all that while maintaining himself as an NBA player.

Y'all really out here asking this man to have 20 million in his savings and 5 million in his checking account at Bank of America :mjlol::mjlol::mjlol::mjlol::mjlol::mjlol::mjlol:
I don't think people realize that the maximum insurance the FDIC forces a bank to cover is $250,000. You definitely don't want $20 million just sitting in one account.

No need to be a real estate speculator, investment whiz-kid or any of that stuff or.... A part time casino owner in Alabama or Missississipi of all places...
I mean no BS but any advisor who would come to me with that idea as an investment would get backhanded.
:dead:
A casino in Mississippi needs to become the new "I got a bridge for sale" idiom.

Maybe I'm just a broke nikka who doesn't understand the intricacies of getting paid 6 figures every two weeks but.....how fukking hard can it be to manage your own bills? :mindblown:
Somebody like Lebron or Mayweather, ok I get it. Those are dudes who might have like double figure houses around the globe, whole entourages on payroll, and mad deals being worked 24/7
But how complicated can it be to manage a role player's "empire"?
Especially now when you can operate everything from your computer and set up automatic payments and even have fukking robo-investor accounts. The upfront set up of where you going invest or how you going automate bill payment might take a weekend or two but why is this such a complicated thing that you need to hire someone full time to rob you. Take a class at wharton, read some books, and spend an offseason setting this shyt up yourself damn

You don't know what you are talking about.
Inflation hurts everyone, especially savers or those with accumulated wealth, who lose the value of their savings..
You could argue it directly effects them more than someone that doesn't have stored assets

Inflation is a myth that doesn't affect anyone, especially a rich person. What can't a person buy with 10 million now that he couldn't 10 years ago? Exactly.

No inflation is not a myth, to even type that out means you have no idea about basic economics and monetary policy.
Inflation affects everyone, it hurts savers the most because it devalues their savings.
If you think its a myth though, simply look at
Weimar republic

Also don't get confused by inflation in the west because it is occuring, west just has the benefit of manufacturing processes and competition driving cost of living down faster than the rate of inflation.

lol @ at showing 50 year old photos and 3rd world countries as an example of this myth. Inflation effects no one. I know everything about finances, all of you wannabe internet financial advisors are the same people that brag about living in your moms basement.

Poor way to deflect the absurdity of what you claimed. Inflation most definitely exists, and it wouldn't be documented repeatedly in economics, if it was a myth, its a actual phenomenon.

Inflation directly hurts savers and those on fixed income with no inflation adjustment. That you claim to know about finances but don't know this, shows you know nothing.

Its okay breh, you don't know much, insulting me and others will not change that.

I didn't say it didn't exist, I said it's a myth. It doesn't affect anyone, especially the rich. There's nothing that a rich person can't afford now that he could 10 or 20 years agos. Period point blank.

Who's a saver? Poor/working class?

Like I said, it doesn't affect rich people, which was the point of my statement. You're the one who doesn't know anything about finances and it's painfully obvious. LOL @ a lower class financial wizard.

If something is a myth, then it doesn't exist, so it seems you don't know what you are talking about.
Inflation effects everyone.
You have no idea what you are talking about, you've made that extremely clear.
