Charles Barkley Regrets Ignoring Grant Hill’s Mother’s Financial Advice

Charles Barkley recently admitted he regrets ignoring some crucial financial advice from Janet Hill, Grant Hill’s mother. Barkley recalled, “The best advice I ever got, I didn’t listen to. She [Janet] says ‘Do not start giving your family and friends money. It’s going to ruin your relationships’.” Unfortunately, Barkley didn’t heed her warning, helping too many people and straining relationships in the process. He highlighted that athletes often go broke not just from spending, but from constantly supporting others financially—a lesson he learned the hard way.
