The funny thing is if he's successful in building his brand to the level he dreams of, he's going to regret signing off 10% of his earnings to Fantex. He'll end up losing a lot more than the $4 mil they gave him. They're not gonna give him that kind of cash if they don't expect to profit in the end.
I do not understand how fantex works.
The money that he receives from fantex does not lessen the money he receives from the 49ers or other sources, does it?
How does Vernon Davis lose money if he get his earning from other sources plus 90% of the money earned by his fantex stock?
