Tips for Financial Success from NBA Star Shaquille O'Neal

You might not be able to learn much about shooting free throws from the example of Shaquille O’Neal, but you can certainly learn a lot about properly managing your finances. Educate yourself about personal finance, investing, business, and taxes by regularly doing CFE. Convert your high income into wealth by carving out a portion and dedicating it to wealth-building pursuits. Minimizing financial worries will enable you to better care for your patients, your family, and yourself. As Dr. Shaq says, “It’s not about how much money you make. The question is, ‘Are you educated enough to keep it?’”
