You can buy 1% of NFL rookie Baron Browning's future earnings for $10. The speaker extends this idea to digital creators: investors fund their operating costs in exchange for a small stake in future revenue. He's curious whether micro-equity models like this will actually catch on.

This is one of the craziest investment opportunities I've ever seen, but I love a deal. So check this out. So Baron Browning is a rookie in the NFL. His contract is about to end and he's looking for renewal. So he's selling shares in his future earnings from NFL deals, selling 1% of them. So you can buy for $10 a tiny piece of his future earnings that he may get. Now, obviously, if he starts getting $50 million contracts, you've made an amazing bet. And if he doesn't, maybe you didn't. But this brings up a really, really interesting concept. Like, I think you could probably do this with creators as well, and you could see who's sort of taking off metrics-wise. And needs capital upfront where you could start sort of giving them the money they need for all the opex and all the backend that actually comes with a big creator and to buy a piece of that business today against its future earnings tomorrow. Anyway, this is nutty. I love this. I'd be really, really curious to see if something like this starts taking off. What do you think?
