How? Well, as revealed in the book LeBron James Inc. by Brian Windhorst, Carter turned his life around thanks to Albert Einstein. Or, to be more specific, he ended up becoming worth $60,000,000 thanks to a specific quote he read from the Nobel laureate.
Maverick Carter turned his life around from a pot dealer to LeBron James’ business partner thanks to Albert Einstein
Maverick Carter is one of the brightest minds in the world of sports. Known for his partnership with LeBron James, Carter has accumulated a net worth of $60,000,000 over his several years of experience. However, he wasn’t always the business guru he is today.
In fact, back before he met King James, Maverick was involved in some pretty shady business. He used to sell pot in order to make ends meet. But, he knew that dealing drugs was not what he was meant to do. And, thanks to Albert Einstein he achieved his potential.
Carter once interned with Nike in his younger days. During his time there, Carter, with his hunger and thirst for knowledge would always pick the minds of the bosses. It got to a point, where he became considered an annoyance that came with the job. However, this didn’t deter Maverick, who got all the inspiration he needed to soldier on from one of Einstein’s quotes.
“At some point, Carter had come across a quote from Albert Einstein that spoke to him: “I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.” This became a guiding principle of sorts for Carter or, at the very least, a cool thing to say to people to disarm them. Either way, he started saying it a lot and generally following through.”
Safe to say, the quote worked wonders. After all, he has managed to build a huge business empire with LeBron by his side. Making him one of the most successful men in the world.
