Shaq said his kids will get no "cheese" without two degrees

Shaq handles himself well. He is a great business and marketing guy. But it's especially great to see he will do right by his kids and never ever let them mooch a dime off him without being successful themselves...
From an article about Shaq on a recent Ellen show:
Despite his wealth, though, O'Neal is smart about his money: He reportedly saves 75 percent of his earnings and lives off the other 25 percent.
He's also instilling financial responsibility in his six children. During Monday's segment on "Ellen," O'Neal revealed the rules he currently has in place for his kids.
"My most famous rule is, in order to touch any of my cheese, you have to present me two degrees," he explains.
"Cheese means money. So, their father's very successful. So as a father, I'm not going to give them handouts. They have to get a bachelor's and a master's," O'Neal adds.
"So they're not in the will unless they get two degrees?" DeGeneres asks.
"Exactly," O'Neal responds.

What if they can't handle college, Shaq? Shaq is tough as nails.

Then they better do online college and pay someone to complete their classes and make sure the diesel doesn’t find out

I’m assuming he’s willing to pay for those degrees, but assuming that’s true, love this policy.

College isn’t that hard anymore. There are tons of degree factories out there. A master’s degree is all about grinding.

They wont have to worry about college debt so that shouldnt be a problem at all.

Where can I sign up to be a lifetime student and get Shaq’s money?

Why is this LSU related?
Hint, it's not.

Shaq's not a dumbass and his children had far more advantages than him growing up. I'm sure they're good kids.
