The Chameleon Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 The other day I was at lunch reading the paper and I came across an add featuring Steve Nash selling MGD computers. I immediately thought, why? I mean if you Steve Nash, Shaq, Kobe or the like you already have several million dollars. The interest on your money alone will support you for the rest of your life. So then why? Why if you already have egnough money for the rest of your life would you want your face plastered everywhere. Why would you want to go through all the bullshit of sitting through the shooting of these commercials, showing up on set on and on? The only thing I can think is either you have a serious addcition you have to pay for..gambling, drung etc. Or you are trying to support the living costs of your entire extended family and friends and all yo' boyz... (and even then when you make 10-20 mil a year?) Or worst of all you are a complete narcasist and attention whore and require people to blow smoke up your ass all day so youu feel good. The last one I can see the Kobe's of the world being subject to, but Steve Nash seems like such a normal dude. But hey who knows what he's really like?

AD Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 it probably has to do with a relatively short career too, i'll work til i'm 65 or whatever, nash's primary-income career will be done at 35...but yeah. i should start trying to get endorsement deals.ad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AD Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 Steve Nash seems like such a normal dude. Steve Nash is definitely not a normal dude. Guy's got incredible basketball skills, is a standout player in an elite athletic league, has been a standout his whole life..... That's probably as far from normal as you can get.AD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SevenSeasJim Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 - $100000000000000 is not enough. They want more.- It's an ego thing. "I love seeing my name and face everywhere."- It's done for a friend to help their business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SevenSeasJim Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 oh ya, and to support all the family members that come out of the woodwork when you're rich :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hal Johnson Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 Ive also heard that Shaq hasnt spent a penny of his earnings from the NBA itself. Everything he has now is solely from endorsements, bad movies, (although Blue Chips kicked ass) and terrible video games. The dude is riiiiii-ich.
