Buffalo Bills’ Keon Coleman Showcases Smart Shopping Habits
Keon Coleman, Buffalo Bills rookie wide receiver, signed a four-year, nearly $10 million contract but continues embracing frugal habits. During an April press conference, Coleman highlighted his knack for smart shopping, revealing he bought a yellow Guess puffer coat for $79.89 on sale at Macy’s. Influenced by his mother, he practices buying clothes off-season to snag discounts. This savvy approach even attracted Nike’s attention, which sent Coleman a box of coats to prepare him for New York winters.
Other Pro Athletes Embracing Frugality
Herbert Jones of the New Orleans Pelicans, with an upcoming $13 million salary, also values savings. He prefers wearing free team gear over splurging on new clothes. Jones highlighted the importance of focusing on long-term financial stability for his family over short-term appearances. This approach underscores his commitment to ensuring his kids’ futures rather than indulging in luxury spending.
Practical Living Choices Among High-Earners
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy and New York Yankees player Gerrit Cole also exhibit practical living habits despite their earnings. Purdy, despite nearly $900,000 in earnings, drives a Toyota Sequoia and shares rent with a teammate in pricey San Francisco. Meanwhile, Gerrit Cole continues using his high school truck, a 2006 Toyota Tacoma, despite a $324 million contract, valuing its functionality and nostalgic significance over a newer vehicle. These athletes’ choices reflect a trend of conscientious spending and practicality among high-income earners.
