Ochocinco lived at work, Diplo sells his catalog

Opening Bid Unfiltered

Some celebrities are as savvy with their money as a typical Wall Street money manager. The only difference is that oftentimes these celebrities have more money than the money manager! Two examples of financial savviness come from NFL great Chad Ochocinco and renowned DJ and producer Diplo. Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi talks on the Opening Bid podcast from Cannes Lions with both celebrities about how they manage their money and why. Ochocinco — a former star wide receiver for the Cincinnati Bengals — says he slept in his team’s training facility for two years to save money. Diplo says he has sold 75% of his music catalog to fund investments elsewhere.

Yahoo Finance's Opening Bid Unfiltered brings you a high-octane take on the freshest analyst calls, wildest stock moves, and shrewdest commentary in the business world. Executive Editor Brian Sozzi puts Wall Street's finest through their paces in this essential conversation for every investor, before the stock market opens.
