Russell Okung is #teamfrugal ➡️ "Pay me in Bitcoin" to "Paid in Bitcoin". Those two tweets were made two years apart (2019 and 2021). Okung recently made headlines because roughly $6.5 million of his $13 million total salary will be diverted to Strike, a mobile payment company, to purchase bitcoin. Okung's huge bet on Bitcoin comes as the cryptocurrency's price skyrockets. From Okung: “Money is more than currency; it’s power. The way money is handled from creation to dissemination is part of that power. Getting paid in bitcoin is the first step of opting out of the corrupt, manipulated economy we all inhabit.”⁣ ⁣ [source: CNBC]⁣ ⁣ 🔑 #teamfrugal lesson from Okung to other athletes - think outside the box when it comes to your wealth and invest in Bitcoin and/or other assets⁣ ⁣ #afrugalathlete #teamfrugal #bitcoin #salary #invest #athleteinvestor #morethananathlete #russellokung
