Saquon Barkley has earned nearly $80 million in NFL salary and bonuses since 2018.
Instead of spending that money lavishly, the Philadelphia Eagles running back has invested millions of it in a variety of venture funds and tech startups, according to a report published by The Profile on September 3.
Those funds and startups reportedly include artificial intelligence firm Anthropic, Elon Musk-owned neurotech company Neuralink, prediction market Polymarket and venture capital fund Founders Fund, which is run by billionaire investor and political activist Peter Thiel.
“I was just thinking about how I can only play for so long, so I really gotta take advantage, keep investing, and create wealth for me and my family,” Barkley told The Profile.
