Travis Kelce Regrets How He Spent His First NFL Paycheck

As the Super Bowl champ explained, his goal in life was to live a “baller lifestyle,” but that unfortunately that castle was crumbling down after only a year. 

“The money was just flying out of the account,” he recalled. “Learning from my experiences was the best thing for me.”

Thankfully, he was able to make a change, mostly because he was fortunate enough to still get another paycheck. But the memories of his first experience are still with him, adding, “Avoiding the rent lady when I make over six figures? Not the best feeling in the world. Embarrassing moment again.”

Still, the guy on the Chiefs is grateful for his early experiences, even if he doesn’t always approve of them in retrospect. 

“It’s definitely been a journey and an experience that I kind of appreciate over the course of time,” Travis explained. “Because those embarrassing moments in my life helped me figure out exactly how to spend, how to save, how to invest.”
