As Shaquille O’Neal is a central part of the NBA on TNT crew, he’s obviously in New York City this weekend for the All-Star Weekend festivities. But the big fella arrived in the big apple a bit early and made his way down to Wall Street to chat stocks with the guys in the investment big leagues at the New York Stock Exchange.
In typical Shaq style, he did it up large. Explaining the merits of investing in ‘Penny Stocks’ because its ‘more fun’ on CNBC’s “Closing Bell”. He then proceeded to call over a very tiny broker (proportionally) to explain his choices and how he wants to sit at home looking and feeling smart about investing. Of course, Shaq was playin’ the fool when he leans over and kisses the broker on the top of his head. Consummate entertainer, Shaq is.
“Peter is smart. So when I’m at home and I got my suit on, I wanna feel like Peter when I’m messing with my penny stocks.”
