Rich Paul says he wanted off LeBron James’ payroll as soon as possible to build his own career
“LeBron wasn’t obligated to do anything for me or anybody else.”
“The only person he was obligated to do something for was Gloria James.”
“When I got my first check, I didn’t even know how to read it.”
“I called and asked what my job was.”
“He said, ‘I actually don’t have a position for you at all.’”
“I had two choices.”
“I’m definitely not a yes man.”
“So I created value.”
“I was everything from a party promoter to a stylist to a jeweler.”
“That eventually led to a job at Nike.”
“That’s where I learned the legal side, the footwear business, and marketing.”
