On a recent podcast, Shaq revealed in passing that he owns as many as five houses and forty cars. Furthermore, he claims he doesn’t truly know why, saying, “I have 40 cars and I don’t know why. And I got five houses, I don’t know why.” Shaq’s advice was surprisingly straightforward and practical despite his enormous presence – save your money. “Just save. Don’t even touch it,” he advised when discussing what he’d do differently from a financial perspective. This advice comes from someone who has lived long but also learned the value of financial caution. Besides, this isn’t the first time he said you should save more. In a recent interview, Shaq said, “It’s not about how much you make; it’s about how much you keep.” He further explained, “Save 75% of your earnings and put it away. Use the other 25% as you please.”
