Key Quotes:

“That one year in between being a walk-on and getting put back on scholarship was probably one of the greatest years of my life because I lived off-campus and I had no cell phone, no car, I would wake up and train in the dark, and every day I showed up for practice was game day…”

I stay liquid in things that I think are good stores of value.
