Garrick Jones is on a mission to change the future of professional football.  Jones, a former offensive tackle for the Houston Texans and Canadian Football star, has decided that although playing professional football is the best temporary job you can have, it leaves massive numbers of players retiring broke and without many options.  Jones, and his Developmental Football League intend to have players retiring as entrepreneurial millionaires by having them invest in real estate, stocks, and even build businesses while they play.  If you want to be inspired by someone who thinks so far out of the box that he doesn’t even realize there is a box, then this episode is for you.
