Most advisors would love to work with athletes. But it’s worth asking why. Are they doing it for the money or impact?
At WIN, we don’t have to think twice. Derron played in the NFL and went on to buy and sell real estate and businesses. Malique played Division 1 football and spent 8 years in the financial industry. Between the two of us, we’ve sat on both sides of this table. As the athlete trying to figure it out, and as the advisor who saw where the system kept falling short.
We’ve watched talented guys earn real money and end up with nothing to show for it. Not because they were irresponsible. Because they never had someone who truly understood their world. The contract timelines. The lifestyle pressure. The career that ends before most people even think about retirement.
WIN was built for that client. The one who needs an advisor who gets it without having to explain it. That’s the difference.
