Ep 42: Playing the Long Game from the NFL to Finance

(UN)Conventional Wealth

What do a professional football player and a financial planner have in common? As it turns out, the answer is a strong sense of goal orientation, exceptional perseverance, and the ability to reverse-engineer the process of reaching the finish line.

Jedidiah Collins’ eclectic story began with a record-breaking stint in college football at Washington State. He then spent 8 years in the NFL, much of which was spent with the Saints. The wealth of knowledge and strategy he gained there unexpectedly carried over to a financial planning career with industry giant Brighton Jones. Ever evolving, Jedidiah got involved with speaking and started the Rookie to Veteran podcast, dedicating himself to teaching others the ins and outs of financial fitness.

On this episode of the (UN) Conventional Wealth podcast, host Dan Nicholson and Jedidiah share insights on topics ranging from the lessons we can take from Drew Brees’ practice rituals to how journaling connects you to your loved ones and yourself and the critical importance of beginning with the end in mind.

“I can steal inches daily. And that’s how I’m truly going to add up and get to the ultimate objective, is by identifying, where are those marginal gains I can go and get?”
