“Not the Sharpest Knife”: Claiming to Pay $155000 for a $55000 Purchase, Shaquille O’Neal Resurfaces Fans Shaking Their Heads

Shaquille O’Neal has amassed a net worth of $600 million over the course of his career. Apart from his earnings from the NBA, Shaq has made some extremely smart and wise investments to reach the level where he is now. One thing that the seven-foot big man despises is giving out handouts. Be it to his own children as he believes in them being self-supportive. While Shaq may not give handouts, he does tend to look out for the people he cares about, even if they manage to miss out on it.

An old video of Shaquille O’Neal has resurfaced where The Big Aristotle’s generosity and selfless gesture got overlooked. Not only did it get overlooked but it also got questioned by one of his friends who may have shot himself in his own leg.

Shaquille O’Neal tried to look out for one of his friends

A video provided by journalist Graham Bensinger and posted by an Instagram page ‘Successaddictives‘ involved a question for Shaquille O’Neal. The person in the video with the question was Jesse, a custom bike maker who made a bike for Shaq worth $55,000.

Jesse had a question for the Lakers legend saying, “My question for Shaq attack is, everybody knows I built you a bike for $55,000. But how come when you picked it up, you went to the Century Club in LA and told everybody you paid $155,000 for it?”

Jesse got a reply from Shaq but later on, must’ve wished that he should’ve kept his mouth shut. The Los Angeles Lakers legend replied by saying, “Well Jesse, the answer is, I wanted to make you look good.”

“I only paid 50 but if I tell them I paid 100 when they come and ask for the same bike, you tell them 100. Your profit is 100. I was looking out for you, not for me. I wanted you to look good Jesse, you know I love you,” added Shaq.

Fans left in utter disbelief

Fans couldn’t help but shake their heads in disbelief. One fan commented on the post, “Jesse is not the sharpest knife in the drawer!”

Another fan commented, “I love this man Shaq. He’s such an inspiration to everyone he comes across. Blessings.”

Here are a few more reactions from fans.

“Looks like someone lost a big customer.”

“This was right before WCC exploded. That’s what his bikes cost then. Seems like Shaq was trying to help.”

“I love this. Jesse is not so smart on many levels here..”

“Jesse should of known this.”
