      I wonder what changed. I seen a video of MJ at the Nike warehouse with fellow teammates Charles Oakley and Sam Vincent. He told them to get whatever they want. Like kids in a candy store, they had gym bags full of stuff. The people that worked there put tags on the bags and shipped them to whatever address they put down. This had to be between 86'-87'.

      It's not about having the money, or about spending the money, it's about what the money is being spent on.
      $3k on shoes is crazy.

      @@delvesdg yeah to us. Don’t know about you, but I ain’t a millionaire. Any pro athlete or A list actor drops $3k on shoes like it’s nothing. They have millions and the money keeps coming in. In fact, most of them won’t be able to spend it all in this lifetime. Thank about that.

    2 things that are dope about this episode. 1. Sam doesn’t wear Nike,but bought some anyway.
    2. He actually tried on his shoes.
    🔥💯✊🏾

    My favorite actor! He's got his own style and its cool that he was thinking of his daughter. I love the shoes he bought her. He is a legend and the GOAT!
