Ron Partlow said that people saw Kai and Aaron Singeman/PjBraun in Florida (when Kai was in Florida) so he asked his manager how much is Kai asking from companies,and he said 700k a year! a question - when someone like Kai,Heath,Jay got a contract let say 100k a year,do they pay taxes on that or the company pay the taxes for that so you receive the NET sum?
-
He never wanted anywhere near that much. Wrong again!
-
Who is this creepy neymar? Palumbo, Ron Harris, Blechman, or is he just a fake insider.
-
Didn't Kai agree to pay Oscar Ardon half his Olympia prize money one year? ???
Only Tony Doherty and Wiggs would know this.

Your company paying your taxes.
Truly living the dream!

Feverishly awaiting! :o

First off, its his manager that was doing the talking....not Kai. Secondly, his manager Adam was pitching for up to a million dollars for Kai.
Phil Heath was dropped not because Muscletech couldn't afford it but because they would rather spend it on physique models and MMA fighters....along with the fact that he wanted everything paid for like a diva.

Lol, no shit. Spoken like someone who's never sniffed six figures.

That's not much considering he is the second best bodybuilder in the world.....Kyrie Irving plays second fiddle to Lebron and yet he makes 16 million a year...not including his Nike deal.
Kai should be asking 2 million minimum, can't sell himself short.

Kai sells himself short all the time to the highest bidder with the lowest morals. After all, he's a manslut.

Musclemeds did not drop him. When they wanted to renew, Kai and his manager wanted a lot more money, close to 500K from the 250K he was getting. Musclemeds opted not to overpay for Kai. Simple business decision. Kai did not build Musclemeds as he contends.
As for Phil, Muscletech did not drop him either. They wanted to renew, but Phil wanted a lot more money, close to 800K instead of the 500K he was getting. When Muscletech realized that Phil was not going to budge, then the legal paperwork came out in ending their relationship. Another business decision.
Kudus to Phil Heath for building up Gifted Nutrition, as well as Kai Greene for building up his own line (Dynamic Muscle). Of course, there are the financial and creators behind the lines (the athletes are the 'face' of the companies).

Wow, another supplement company added to the mix. The only one I ever see on shelves is Arnold's bullshit. Can't believe there are enough dollars in the industry to support all these companies.
Dynamik, not Dynamic

It's a shame that all these pros are going the supp company route (not that I buy any bb supps). I doubt any of them are doing it because they want to create the best supps ever, or because they have had this amazing idea that will revolutionise the fitness industry, they are just doing it for a buck - which to me means the product will be shit.

The money is in the supp companies. Why be paid by them, when you can have your own line? Now they are the owners/businessmen.

Yes. It was something like that. Not just the Olympia. Any show.

Yea I watched that "seminar" on youtube before too about how to start your own supplement company in 5 minutes.
It's incredible how these bodybuilders can source and recruit the team required to develop and bring to market so many ground-breaking, bicep-bursting nutritional supplements.

I believe they are supremely jaded at that point.
Think about someone like Cutler or Phil. They've been serious bodybuilders for 2 decades or more. They outright know that the bodybuilding world is built on lies. They know the supplements are shit and they've probably already "repped" a few brands saying the same canned bullshit for years. They wear the shirt and the hat, and sit at the booth between competitions. The move from brand to brand and they realize "the kids will buy whatever shit I sell from whatever scammer company I represent."
The smart ones simply realize that it's good business to represent their own brand.
After all, how hard is it to source aspartame and milk byproduct protein powder?

Go masturbate with sandpaper.
Nobody cares about this shit.

He has an expensive NY condo. The ghetto crib was for painting and a front.

May as well capitalize while it's hot and capitalize on your own name rather than give your name to someone else but I agree in principle. Frankly I think there are better avenues to make money than going to expos every weekend shilling supplements but I'm sure the profits are pretty good so may as well do it while you can!

lol that lying fronting bitch

Most prudent business owners don't pay themselves a dime for many years, they put all the money back into the company to see it succeed. Yet bodybuilders think that somehow they will be making the same $$ as when they were sponsored. The stress and time you have to put into a new company skyrocket once you go from employee to employer.
Is it safe to say now that Kai is not the broken down poor guy Generation Iron portrayed him to be, but on the same level financially as Heath?

yea, kai said in a video years ago , he kept that apartment in the projects to store his paintings and boxes , because it way cheaper then renting a store unit in New York

I think Kai is doing well for himself. He appears to be very busy doing those camps and guest posingd. To me that seems like a better way to make money than the supplement route.
From my perspective I am sure there are young people who buy these products because they are made by their heroes but long term maybe not. I do know some supplement people who sell their stuff locally and in their gym and it works for them.
Of course it's all about diversification but if I were thinking long term I would not invest in a supplement company. Too many and too much to keep it going

This.
It's like Kobe going from Adidas to Nike, in a sense. And Jordan having his own line by Nike.

Yes, because Muscletech, MusclePharm and MuscleMeds were all about creating the best supps ever and never were in it for the bucks. You. Fucking. Moron.

Yikes but so many people do ish behind the scenes.
His is out there but he's never hidden or been ashamed. I give him credit for that.
I would actually buy his pre workout if he had grapefruit flavor because that truly
Is someone who can rise above

He should be ashamed though. If you buy his pre-workout supplement, you get a free white towel.

:D
If you aren't ashamed to don those s & m get ups then I doubt there is much that can shame you. I bet Kai still does some work in that arena and I'm sure hes paid very well.

With Kai, negotiations were always a gentle balancing act....

Interesting. Do you mean Phil was demanding out of hand food expenses to be paid for, as well as outrageous travel fees? First class instead of standard?
Yes. It was something like that. Not just the Olympia. Any show.
Interesting. I knew you would have this information, Wiggs. Thank you.
