"I'm not a businessman, I'm a Business, man!" - Messi World Champion 8 ballon d'or

In all honesty, the business of Messi is a bit underwhelming considering his status.
Messi's inability to speak english can also be one of the reasons why some of his investments or marketing are not kicking off.
You beat me to it
Not only does he not speak English (the most spoken language in the world)
He's also introverted ... even his Spanish speaking fans might not gravitate towards like that outside of football
The chance of him succeeding in business is so slim. Apart from selling shirts he he’s too stupid to run a bath for his children let alone run a large business
That's the beauty about messi.
Bad Boys?
This is so strange. he is a star and introverted... I was watching one of his interviews it seems someone was bulying and he responded
Watched every single video within an hour of release.
Now that's loyalty towards Athletic Interest.
indeed.same here😂😂😂
1 min into the video and editor is already cooking 🦅🦅🦅
With markets tumbling, inflation soaring, the Fed imposing large interest-rate hike, while treasury yields are rising rapidly-which means more red ink for portfolios this quarter. How can I profit from the current volatile market, I'm still at a crossroads deciding if to liquidate my $125k bond/stocck portfoli0
It’s precisely at times like these that investors need to be on guard against the next certainty. You don’t have to act on every forecast, hence i will suggest you get yourself a financial-advisor that can provide you with entry and exit points on the shares/ETF you focus on.
Right, I've been in constant touch with a fiinancial-analyst since covid . You know these days it's really easy to buy into trending stock`s, but the task is determining when to buy or sell . My advisorr decides entry and exit commands on my portfoliio, I've accrued over $300k from an initially stagnant reserve of $150K.
please I want to invest but I don't know any F/A that can help me, can you leave behind the info of the lady you just mentioned?
she's mostly on Telegram, using the user name

The eagle screaming everytime the US Flag popped up killed me
I think off the court/field Roger Federer is the best example of how an athlete increases his wealth!
Swiss people do Swiss things lol
Lebron better
*laughs in Mathieu Flamini*
@@MrPrajitura the market he wants to attack is worth 10 billion his company is only worth 15million that was a mistake by google
That's not the best example: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Junior_Bridgeman
Each one of your videos is a case study in sports marketing industry.
Great videos as always.
Keep the good work coming, AI
Someone can understand and explain with vivid examples the marketing industry just by watching the athletics of interest ❤
Fun fact :Messi is also secretly learning English. You watch. In 15 years he'll speak English as good as Arnold swarzeneger
😂
NFTS???? LMAOOO ITS SO OVER, DUDE GOT SCAMMED
fr
but we need to remember he is messi, he is known for pulling off a miracle every single time.
Felon Trump scammed his supporters with NFTS as well. So hilarious 😂😂
@@ronny-lb1crevery us president is a criminal lmfao, biden is funding a genocide in palestine, obama bombed the middle east the most out of any president, bush invaded the middle east for bs reasons, etc.
trumps no angel but his prosecution was clearly a political one
Why go through all the burden of building companies when he can just live off his image for the rest of his life and still make tons of money?
Look at Ronaldinho
Pelé did it for Decades.
Influenced by money hungry investors
@@fadisfeir4902true
Ronaldinho is bankrupt
Because he doesn't have to do shit. His company is investment and getting him profits. He can just sit back and relax
Athletic Interest bingo: Liverpool mentioned ✅
Because a soccer ball only weighs about 1 pound, while Messi weighs at least 150 pounds.
I'm also bigger than soccer.
What's soccer
😂😂😂😂
Sorry, what is soccer?
I hate the comments. There's always somebody funnier than me.
@@BMRH09 this literally isn't at all funny
Tremendous stuff!!!! Information overload!!! Had to 1.5x the speed to make sure I could watch it all before the kids kicked off 🤣🤣.
Keep smashing these video out. Love the work
He declined a billion to sell nfts 😭😭💀🤣
Time will tell
His move to Miami rather than to Middle East wasnt a business decision, it was a family decision.
Yeah, I can see turning down a lot of cash for a business opportunity, but when the cash amount is $1 bil and the opportunity is NFTs, collectibles and a video streaming startup, I mean, I definitely would've taken the cash. Messi's streak of bad investments seems to continue.
@@notsobrazy nfts were already dead in the water years ago
Solid video Athletic Interest, you’re spot on with the MJ and LeBron James examples of superstar athletes becoming billionaires through smart investments and business ventures, Messi has the global star power that he will definitely be following in their footsteps to become a billionaire.
Shock, another great video.👍🏿
I wish I could speak like this dude to make nice videos like him 😂😂❤❤ learning so much from you, keep going making videos🎉🎉❤
I watched all your videos,now that what I call a obsessed fan of a commentary channel ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤.
He was beautiful. He was the point of difference. He has always been the point of difference. Unparalleled, and maybe today there will, of course, always be those who argue, always be those who debate. And the debate could rage on if you like.The Greatest of all time🙌🐐

❤Real Quality
You forgot one key thing for the move into the MLS. Messi will be able to have his own franchise in the MLS. Just like Beckham. I think this might be the biggest reason why he went there.
Excellent presentation. How about a video of CR7’s investment?
Sure
Ive done one for Mbappe's
I really love the way they introduce their videos just mcwa
As always a banger! Thanks for sharing
I expected better...... detail strategy on how he is planning to become a billionaire
Didn't they say the strategy was about anticipating how sports content will be consumed in the future (and cornering those emerging markets)? So I'd guess investing in streaming services.
They'll probably create something like a Spotify for football, won't they? Every goal available on demand, that kind of thing.
45mil/year for the rest of his life is an insane deal. Man just made sure his whole bloodlines bloodline has a secured future
Talk about Cristiano Ronaldo's business too please
all these investments sound so bad... wtf is going on... it;s so easy for them at that level...

Athletic Interest never Miss man! They never Miss!!! Insane Video and Production quality as always!!!
Awesome video as always!! Tbh I don't think Messi is the driving force behind this. He doesn't seem to me like a greedy businessman that wants to take over the world. I feel more like he is surrounded by people which want to make money through Messi. An investment here, an investment there.. and big percentage for the guy that advised him to do that.
Cheers from UK 👋
I wanna be rich
Why you did not give any mention about his investment in the field of Esports and Gaming??and how much money he makes out of it???
I would be super happy even if I had just $1 million. But these rich people with billions of dollars are never happy and always want to earn more
Messi also went there to play with Busquests, Alba and Suarez
Amazing video, and amazing article it is based on!
Muy buen video, lo vi traducido y comprendí al instante. Messi el empresario le veo buen futuro, ojalá se apruebe la ley bases en argentina y venga a invertir en argentina además de ser la cara de YPF
Please, keep doing videos. Such a good channel
Here for hoping…just want him to be the best as always
One of my favorite social media content providers ever…❤❤❤❤
The Ultimate G.O.A.T.🐐⚽🔥
The jordan shoes is great. Messi should start with that instead of streaming platform..
that eagle sound effect😂
Make a video on IPL cricket topic 💙
Messi should go into coaching.
The topic doesn't represent the content whatsoever
Thanked his father as he is his agent.
The mind behind the business
Messi is already known worldwide outside of America but now that he joined America it's going to be an end game
Lebron bigger
@@demonofpurgatory5188 lol no he is now not even biggest in the America let alone worldwide
@@chanendlerbong one word china tjat market alone> what any influence a footballer has look it up
@@demonofpurgatory5188 Lebron isnt even close.
facts. Its Messi mania where ever he goes. Different celebrities and athletes attend games to watch the GOAT play
I hope to achieve this level of editing on my channel ngl. 🔥
GOAT video about GOAT athlete, this channel always hits on point ❤
It's called multiplier effect.
This post changed everything
Name of the song on the background
Los key seems like messi sucks at investing compared to the other athletes this video brought up. But only time will tell
Man a coffe shop would also be pretty successful
The athlete for sure put in work on pitch BUT if your manager isn’t buisiness savvy you’re NOT getting the Jordan deal, Lebron Liverpool, Serena firm deals etc. The managers are the ones searching for this new opportunity which can make you a billionaire or $100m+ I think that’s way harder job but they are regularly under appreciated
MESSI CAN MAKE MORE MONEY IN BARCELONA ALSO BUT HE DOSNT WANT TO RAISE SO MUCH THE PRICE BACK THAN FOR THE LOVE HE HAD FOR THE CLUB .. AND HE IS NOT THAT GUY LIKE RONALDO THAT HE COUNTS WHO ATHLETE MAKES MORE MONEY , MESSI JUST DOES HES JOB GOOD AND MONEY COMES GOOD THATS ALL
Another banga
AI uploads, Messi, I click, I like ❤
I'm a huge Messi fan, but honestly, he is not representative like Ronaldo is. He knows like 5 words in English and he's introverted. Those two reasons alone are enough for him not to succeed off the pitch.
Ending BGM name?
A brand of himself
I did like to see video on Ronaldo like this
Media suits you Lionel messiii
Damn the referee costs must be skyrocketing😢😢
Another Athletic video mahn ❤❤❤
So basically my takeaway of this is that messi has terrible business sense. Getting the deal with apple and then buying the franchise might be very smarr, otherwise his incapacity of leveraging his brand to create a strong consumer product brand is baffling to me, there are literally hundreds of nobodies who create huge brands nowadays (rouge, five four five etc), he should really leave the investing to the pros. Either get a guy who can create a brand, otherwyjist put your money into PE and that should yield for RoE that thoae stupid business ventures. Then again, not really surprised by a dude thats not even capable of leaening to speak english. Footballing and business genius seem very very different...
Yeah I agree; the personal brand route wont be right for Messi, he's already got enough sponsorships tbf. Maybe it could work within South America but their economy is relatively poorer. The obsession to follow Jordan I dont think is possible, although I'd love to know the journey of Jordan, Idk if air jordans are so popular bevause of Jordan or because of the shoe itself. Cr7 makes most of his money through IG I believe and that's bevauae his personal brand is just so much stronger, he has things in common with non football people that Messi could never reach. Messi is more for the football fans so Messi ability to scale consumer wise I don't think is possible
He should just open up a venture fund and leave it up to a a mgt team. Based on the performance of that, we might see Messi back in Europe hahah
Why didn't footballers have signature sneakers or cleats line??
and messi just dropped the prime “killer”
What about his new energy sport drink mas+?
in the usa messi will be free to operate and succeed in his post football career
I am surprised he isn't a billionaire already with the insane money Barca paid him and all the crazy sponsorship deals he has had for ages.
messi the best player in MLS and in the world.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Which part is insane?
100k in sales “wouldn’t register on his balance sheet” because sales are reported in the P&L!!!
Not so bright Startups, NFT is down and probably will stay that way, buying memorabilia meh its ok but wont make much, only if Messi will sell more t-shirts, don-t forget that Messi has a new drink, which is by chance really similiar to Prime drink. :D In this point i think Messis advisor is copying Logan Pauls portfolio :D
What is your favourite sport, Athletic? I can't decide between Formula 1 and Premier League for myself
You’re not allowed in China anymore!!!!
Messi: …k 🤷♂️
❤❤❤
Messi is already billionaire before he came to america his dad and family relatives handles things
I've been a Messi fan since he burst into Barca's first team.
Now, some decade and a half later, I've seen more of him off the field than when he first started.
It pains me to say this, Messi will never reach Michael Jordan's height in wealth. He's too naive. He's a footballing GOAT but does not have the people acumen or business acumen. Shockingly, he sometimes doesn't even see clearly where his commercial potential is. His fan base in China dwarfs that of the US in numbers and in money potential. But his PR awkwardness presented him in the wrong optics with the Chinese people. I still can't believe in his mis-step there (in HK). I think a good part of his fan base and goodwill there has permanently evaporated into thin air. Kobe Bryant and now LeBron James have already shown the way into the heart of the Chinese fan base. But Messi had awkwardly tripped himself up there.
Brother why did you change the thumbnail 🫣 ?
also messi has just launched a prime competitor
I love Atheletic Interest outro music, best in the game , rivals pewdiepie outros of 2016/18
Messi should invest in Berkshire and join Warren in annual meetings
Athletic Interest has some of the best hooks on RUclips
the problem he has its does't recognise what people think a out him. He is not the guy you are going to remember how stylish he is or how energetic he is but what everybody knows is how talented he is SO he needs to focus talent related ideas and businesses.
we need Ronaldo's version next
