The World of Sport
STAR ATHLETE INC. Player-Moguls Go for the Gold By Kristen Jones Becoming a sports superstar is a rare victory that only a few people in the world ever achieve. However, for African American athletes, the path to such phenomenal success is often even more challenging due to the systemic barriers they must first overcome. Rising above these obstacles to reach such a high level in sports is itself an amazing accomplishment. However, for those who use their athletic achievement to also build businesses and invest, their success goes beyond the world of sports and puts them among an even smaller group of athletes who have become sports moguls and perhaps multimillionaires or billionaires.
