https://x.com/cptdankkk/status/2092033186863714486 Charles Barkley says he thought credit cards were free money in college until he reached the NBA and his agent explained that a $2,000 purchase could cost $22,000 “You know in college they send you MasterCard and Visa. I remember me and all my teammates, we’d go shopping every weekend, and we’d be high fiving each other like, ‘We getting over on these white folks.’ They sending us credit cards and we paid the minimum” “Then when I get to the NBA, my agent says, ‘You got bills we need to take care of.’ I said, ‘I got some bills.’ He’s like, ‘Hey, what are all these bills you got?’ I said, ‘Man, we were getting over on those white folks. We were buying all this shit’” “He says, ‘Are you serious right now. Y’all been buying all this shit, paying the minimum and keep buying shit. You know how credit cards work?’ I said, ‘Yeah, you get them and you buy shit.’ He said, ‘Son, you’re only paying the interest. You see this thing you bought for $2,000. At the rate you going, you going be paying $22,000 for it by the time you’re done’” “He says, ‘That’s how they get poor people. They give you a credit card, you pay the minimum, and you don’t ever end up paying it off. But by the time you pay it off, you paid like three times what it originally cost.’ I said, ‘You need to go meet with all my college teammates. We’ve been doing this shit the whole three years I’ve been in college’” Charles Barkley 表示，他大学时以为信用卡就像「免费的钱」，直到进入 NBA 後，经 纪人才告诉他，一笔 2,000 美元的消费，最後可能得付到 22,000 美元。 「你知道，大学时他们会寄 MasterCard 和 Visa 给你。我记得我和所有队友每个周末都 会去逛街，还会互相击掌，说：『我们这下可占到那些白人的便宜了。』他们把信用卡寄 给我们，而我们每个月只缴最低应缴金额。」 「後来我进了 NBA，我的经纪人跟我说：『你有一些帐单，我们得处理一下。』我说：『 我确实有一些帐单。』他就问：『等等，你到底有哪些帐单？』我说：『老兄，我们之前 都在占那些白人的便宜。我们买了一堆东西。』」 「他说：『你现在是认真的吗？你们一直买东西，只缴最低应缴金额，然後又继续买。你 知道信用卡是怎麽运作的吗？』我说：『知道啊，拿到信用卡，然後拿去买东西。』他说 ：『孩子，你缴的其实只有利息。你看这件买了 2,000 美元的东西，照你现在这种缴法 ，等你还完的时候，可能得付到 22,000 美元。』」 「他告诉我：『这就是他们让穷人陷入困境的方式。他们给你一张信用卡，你每个月只缴 最低金额，结果永远还不完。但等到你终於还清时，你付出去的钱可能已经是原本价格的 三倍。』我说：『你最好去跟我那些大学队友谈谈。我们大学三年来一直都是这样做的。 』」 https://x.com/cptdankkk/status/2092058934919975248 Charles Barkley says his pregame meal during his NBA prime was two McDonald’ s Filet-O-Fish sandwiches, a large fry and a Diet Coke “At our age, I can’t work out enough to eat bad. When I was in my prime, my pregame meal, I got two fish fillets, a large fry and a Diet Coke. It was crazy the shit you could eat when you were 21 or 22. Anything” “After practice you driving home, let me pick up two fish fillets, a large fry, wash that thing down with that big Diet Coke, take my pregame nap, and I ’m good to go. Right now, you pass McDonald’s you gain weight” Charles Barkley 表示，他在 NBA 生涯巅峰期的赛前餐，是两份麦当劳麦香鱼堡、一份 大薯条，再配一杯健怡可乐。 「以我们现在这个年纪，我没办法靠运动量来抵消吃得不好。当我还在巅峰期的时候，我 的赛前餐就是两个鱼堡、一份大薯条，再配一杯健怡可乐。你 21、22 岁的时候，真的什 麽都吃得下，太扯了。」 「练完球开车回家，心想：『来两个鱼堡、一份大薯条，再配一大杯健怡可乐。』吃完睡 个赛前午觉，醒来就准备上场了。现在可不一样了，你只是开车经过麦当劳，都会变胖。 」 心得：老巴谈信用卡以及饮食 --
