Why do you say that? I think his advisors put in good opportunities, but he himself is not a good businessman. Truthfully, there are very few people in the country that are "good businessmen"





Would you consider Michael Jordan a good businessman?

No I consider David Falk the brains behind Jordan. But also consider Jordan a better businessman than LeBron due to going to UNC for 3 years.

I think successful is a relative term, your definition and mine are differing.

Next to Rosenhaus and Steinberg, the arguable best agent in sports

im also guessing you do not even have any idea which businesses lebron and his family run, correct? could you even name one without google?

and since you think going to school for 3 years somehow makes you a "better businessman", i can see youre also clearly lost on the subject

Jordan was just the most marketable athlete ever. He didn't have to have any business savvy really. He just had people pitch him great ideas and everybody made millions. C'mon, man. The dude sells a billion dollars worth of shoes and hasn't played ball in over 15 years

I like how some of you are clowning Lebron, a man who sends kids to school, but laud Trump, a man who has bilked 100s of thousands out of students through a fake university.

You mean like Fortune Tech?

Or the Charter School?

The Promise Bands?

I mean let me know what higher education schooling Mr James has and when and where took the courses, please?

I mean Jordan has a degree in cultural something at UNC

Perhaps some of the lesson and experiences in being an entrepreneur

Anyone with as big a name as LeBron doesn't have to do much in the realm of entrepreneurship other than buy a business and advertise that he's the owner

Another day, another thread where slackster overanalyzes everything and tries to appear intellectually superior to the regular MSB rubes.
