And I think that's one of the big dangers, too.
You know, people, you know, think you have expendable money or your money spends a little differently or more freely than others.
So you end up in a lot of situations with bad advisors to where,
you're just seen as a way to, you know, bring in some extra profits.
So I think that, you know, end of the day, that's going to be something that will always happen.
You'll always, you know, have bad advisors around, floating around, and they seem to always be floating around the athlete slash entertainment arena because, you know, for the simple fact that when I came into the NFL, I had no way, had no idea how to interview a financial advisor.
I had no idea what to look for.
when talking to a financial advisor, and you're forced to make these decisions at 21
old.
But I think, you know, I think the one thing we want to try to do is, you know, be that resource so that you can educate yourself.
So everything you're listening to is not purely the advice of the advisor, but things that you're actually, you know, breaking down and developing understanding for.
I think that's where you find your most winning situations, and you understand as well.
Basically, the initiative, it started last year as we were talking to the IFA about creating an educational summit for professional athletes to learn about the industry.
Initially, we created our summit actually last year, July 14th.
It was at Emory University in Atlanta.
We had about 20 to 25 athletes come down, classroom setting, very small, very intimate classroom setting, had a group of brands come down and play a role in educating these athletes about the industry.
Great event.
You know, a lot of guys had a good time, learned a lot.
The focus of the event was the learning, and it was not a sales event, which we're very excited about and proud to be our badge.
We're not a sales, we're not a brokerage.
