Metta World Peace

You see what I'm saying?

So they know me from the court, but they really coaches that coach me.

General managers that general manage me.

Fans like you don't really know me.

You know, I'm a philanthropist.

Right.

I'm trying to do big things in that field.

And I say that because I want people to get to know me even more.

A business owner as well, many businesses.

And, yeah, when you think about the businesses I'm involved in, one of our companies is called BuildOps.com.

They just recently raised out a billion valuation.

We have a little bit of investors there.

Easy Care Link, a nursing staffing platform that we invested in.

Buttercloth, a couple other companies.

But the thing is this.

In 1999, when we came into the league,

We didn't have what they have now.

You know, our whole thing was like ball till you fall, boom, boom, boom, get the bling, all that stuff.

That was our life unless you was like a Michael Jordan or Shaq, you had your head on your shoulders.

The majority of us athletes back then did not.
