Joe Ingles had a stellar season last year and it led to the Utah Jazz forward getting a huge payday in free agency. His first big contract, Ingles already has big plans for what he’s going to do with the money.
Following via the Daily Telegraph:
“We are going to do a lot of stuff with underprivileged children and families,” he says.
“I mean, we don’t need that much money. Nobody in the world needs that much money.
“So we’ll spend a lot of time helping out kids and families that need the help.
“We’ll start in Utah because we are going to be there in a few months, but then we’ll do some things in Australia.
“But the most pleasure I get out of all of it is that my kids (twins Jacob and Milla) will be OK. The financial side and the stability of the four years is something that I’ve always wanted and I’ve been lucky enough to get it now.”
This is a really heart-warming story. Ingles worked hard to earn his money and no one could blame him if he spent and saved it all for himself and his family.
But it’s a pleasure to watch the Aussie give back to the community and help those in need.
