Athletes need to have a plan for life after sports. The millions of dollars earned during their careers seem to evaporate quickly during retirement. It could be bad investments or lavish living but one thing’s for sure, the athletes aren’t keeping their loot. Denver Nuggets guard Chucky Atkins is working now to ensure that his future is protected.
Chucky Atkins and former Memphis Grizzlies assistant trainer Yusuf Boyd started a car customization business last fall. Immortal Kustomz is located 20 minutes south of Memphis, Tennessee and they will pimp anything from classic cars to the latest luxury rides. From the Immortal Kustomz website:
Are you ready to break free from the normal conformity of today’s automotive circle? To do so existence must be redefined and boundaries must be broken! Immortal Kustomz tailors vehicles to individuals who will not submit to a life of uniformity and only accept perfektion. For those individuals we redefine existence and break boundaries that were never imagined. Every vehicle that rolls out of our studio is a unique timeless (Immortal) piece of art that reflects our desire to build special vehicles for a select group of individuals who have the taste for exclusivity.
“Immortal Kustomz tailors vehicles to those individuals who will not submit to a life of uniformity and only accept perfektion.” No doubt. So far the company boasts a client list of guys Chucky played with in Memphis, but hopefully business will pick up. I don’t wanna see Atkins end up like Sprewell or Vin Baker.
