Always Turning to Mom Lucille O'Neal For Counsel, Shaquille O'Neal Applauds Jayson Tatum's Method of Generating Generational Wealth

Shaquille O’Neal is a man who has the utmost respect for moms across the world. After all, his mother Lucille O’Neal taught him well and still teaches him lessons to this day. So, needless to say, the man loves it when big personalities keep their mothers as part of their biggest decisions since he does it himself. And since he recently found out that Jayson Tatum does it too, he decided to send some his way on Instagram.

Jayson Tatum has been known to not use his NBA money whatsoever. Instead, he purposely lives a bit below what his means would allow, only using his endorsement money in the process. All this is a brilliant move, especially considering the fact that he is trying to build up generational wealth. This is something $400 million worth O’Neal couldn’t help but appreciate. And he recently let the world know about it on Instagram.

Shaq may have a massive net worth now. However, as an NBA player, he was seldom ever as smart with his money as Jayson Tatum is at the moment. So, for the Celtics star to show this level of maturity with his money likely makes the NBA great beyond proud. And he communicated as much through his recent Instagram story. Take a look at the tweet below to see the screenshot of what he did.

And of course, here is the original Instagram post he shared.

As we mentioned prior, Shaquille O’Neal absolutely loves it when big personalities consult their moms on big decisions because he does it too. In fact, he even imparted some knowledge from his mother to Ja Morant, amidst his most recent gun controversy.
