Welcome to the Zone In Podcast. I’m Sam Palmer with J.P. Morgan Wealth Management, and I’m here to give you a sneak peek at the exciting upcoming season of Zone In. If you aren’t familiar with NIL, it stands for Name, Image, Likeness, and was a landmark decision prohibiting the NCAA from withholding education-related payments from student-athletes. Since its inception in 2020, athletes and non-athletes alike have found ways to capitalize on the nearly $1 billion dollars in NIL spending, finding themselves flooded with sponsorship opportunities, brand deals, and access to potentially life-changing amounts of wealth. Over the next six episodes, UCLA quarterback Chase Griffin & New York Giants linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux will be joined by some of the most exciting names in the NIL space to discuss their financial experience, exploring everything from financial health and literacy to brand association, creating a support team, boundary creation, and building generational wealth. Throughout the podcast, I’ll be providing financial insights relevant to their conversations and highlighting helpful resources that you can use on your own financial journey. Together, we’ll be breaking down all things NIL, and showing listeners how they can utilize it to take themselves from students today, to big time tomorrow.
