Suggestion for next story- someone not well known but with incredible empire through various boring/cashflow/franchise business..

Thanks Sajid! I'll do some research to try and find someone like that. Junior Bridgeman is definitely the US equivalent: https://www.cracked.com/article_31343_the-second-richest-nba-player-ever-got-rich-off-burgers-not-basketball.html

(although I appreciate he was a pro athlete so had at least some small level of fame)

This is a nicely thought-crafted article. However, behind every action, there are many causes. What drove these American-based athletes to invest and grow their wealth?
