They become famous, earn money and accumulate wealth. However, they also recklessly spend it, making it hard for them in the future. However, many of them have also made investments that have paid dividends for them. Michael Jordan is one of the players who has earned a lot and also invested smartly.

Currently, his net worth is about $1.7 Billion. His smart use of money and financial decisions are the only ones which have brought him here. Looking back, he’s also made some quirky investments.

While talking about the soap that was included in the line, Jordan revealed that he had made a bar of soap because he had big hands. As it turns out, Jay Leno unpacked a bar of soap from Jordan’s skincare line. However, the product turned out to be a lot bigger than the average soap bar.

Therefore, Leno asked the Chicago Bulls legend why the bar was so big. In response, he said, “Cuz I have big hands.”

In addition, he said that other people had big hands too like him and they often require a big bar of soap. He then hilariously added, “You don’t want to drop the bar of soap in the shower.” He continued to make a joke by saying, “You drop that bar of soap, you have a purpose in mind.” This shows how Jordan was actually cleverly trying to sell his product. And judging by the laughs of the audience, it seemed to work.
