If you really think Magic did any legwork for his companies, then you very naive to the real world. When you are a star athlete in the media capital of the world networking opportunities are around every corner. Due to his fame, Magic met very rich and powerful people who wanted to be his friend. They in turn introduced him to advisors who came to him with opportunities backed up by marketing studies as well as financial investors. I doubt Magic ever even invested his own money. Magic, who is a media whore, claims it was all him, but that's a bunch of crap.
