He touches on his career and what it was like navigating life in professional football. For those unfamiliar, Devon played for the New York Giants, Detroit Lions, Arizona Cardinals and most recently the Baltimore Ravens.Knowing that careers in the NFL are typically short lived, Devon decided to put in the work on the front end to make sure he was financially setup for success long after his football days were over. He shared with us his decision behind becoming a real estate investor and why he believes it is the number one vehicle to build generation wealth.Beyond his success in real estate, Devon has also written a book called "It All Adds Up," where he shares his financial philosophies and advice on budgeting, saving, and investing for those pursuing financial independence. He talks about the importance of family, community, personal growth, and how he has continued to pursue his passions and interests even after leaving the NFL.Whether you're a football fan or not, Devon’s insights and experiences are sure to resonate with anyone looking to take control of their financial future and create a meaningful life beyond their chosen profession.**If you enjoy the show, please leave us a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify!
