Episode #152 - NFL athlete Devon Kennard is an elite athlete who worked hard for football success. But he learned earlier in life that fortunes can change quickly. So even as he made large NFL salaries, he's lived modestly (including driving his high school car for 2 years while in the NFL!), saved money, and invested in things he understands - like real estate! In this interview, he shares his story of getting started as an investor, buying a rental house in Indianapolis, and eventually growing his portfolio to the point where he received $300,000/year of cash flow! He also talks about what matters to him in life, like teaching young people to value reading and learning.
