NFL Football as an Asset Class

With Yousef Salama, “the Fund Manager”recorded Friday nights, July to the Super Bowl

Michael Hlinka and the Fund Manager discuss the National Football League and share the best wagers of the upcoming week, or as they like to refer to it, investment opportunities. Michael Hlinka takes a unique perspective and approaches the NFL as an asset class, not that different from equities, or bonds or real estate.
