Shaquille O’Neal was out shopping in Atlanta when he saw a man buying an engagement ring.
Shaq Buys Fan’s Engagement Ring
Shaquille O’Neal is a very famous, accomplished, and wealthy man – but he recently showed yet again that what he’s truly rich in is generosity.
A true gem
Recently, the NBA superstar was at an Atlanta-area Zales store, where he actually has his own jewelry collection. That’s when he saw a man about to purchase an engagement ring – and took out his own credit card to pay for it. He told the story to NBA on TNT.
“I seen a guy come in — he was just so shy and he was saying, ‘Hey, how much do I owe to pay off my ring?'”
“And I was like, ‘How much is the ring?’ ” he said, and then stepped in to pay instead of the man at the counter.
Shaq then gave his card to the cashier, and shook the hand of the customer, who seemed kind of shocked at what was happening.
“I always get off 30 minutes before you come in here,” the cashier told Shaq, also excited at what they were witnessing.
Shaq is known for his charitable actions and kindness to others. During the pandemic he bought a fan a computer at Best Buy. He also donated all the proceeds generated from his Super Bowl party in Miami to the Kobe & Vanessa Bryant Family Foundation as well as the families of the helicopter crash victims.
He be a legendary athlete, but he also seems to be a legendary kind of good guy.
Copy the play
Most of us aren’t as wealthy as Shaq, but there are other ways to follow his lead in the generosity department. Resources other than money, like time, expertise, love, and support could all greatly help someone in need. Just stay alert and willing, and you could be reaching Shaq levels of charity in no time.
