After getting taken to the cleaners by his ex-wife in a divorce settlement, Michael Strahan isn’t the first person you think of when it comes to investing advice. #97 joined Jim Cramer on CNBC’s Mad Money last month to talk about football, investing, and his new book, Inside the Helmet: My Life as a Sunday Afternoon Warrior. The interview didn’t make me want to run out and buy the book, but the snippets that Cramer talked about were interesting.
Here are a few things that stuck out to me:
- Michael Strahan had $3.3 mil in a checking account and got scammed for $1.6mil.
- Michael Strahan doesn’t want to take a dollar and make a million dollars.
- Michael Strahan owns one stock, and it’s Under Armour.
The best part of the interview is at the 3:20 mark of the video when Cramer is chumming it up with Strahan and doing some play fighting.
MS: Watch yourself now. I might have some flashbacks and then we’re in trouble.
JC: I’m good at cheapshot. I can do a cheapshot.
MS: All right Trent Green, watch yourself.
Strahan went on to say that he and Trent are good friends, and he was just joking, but I guarantee Travis Johnson jumped out of his seat and yelled “Preach Brotha Strahan“.
