NIL and financial literacy go hand in hand. It’s now more important than ever that student-athletes receive the financial literacy education they need to succeed.
Student-athletes need to be aware of the risks associated with NIL and becoming a public figure. Financial literacy education can help them evaluate risks and make informed choices to protect their reputation and financial stability.
NIL has opened the door for many young athletes to start accumulating wealth. By making informed financial choices and understanding the importance of savings and insurance, student-athletes can establish a solid financial foundation that provides for security and future growth.
Athletes lead very public lives, making them easy targets for fraud. Financial literacy education can empower athletes to recognize and protect themselves against schemes and scams, and help them understand how to hire the right people to manage their long-term financial life.

"Hillary is an exceptionally intelligent and talented individual who prioritizes and deeply understands how to connect with people in a genuine way. Her main goal is to educate, but she indirectly provides a positive influence of motivation, connectivity, and autonomy for our LSU student-athletes as she guides them through the nuances of their financial fitness.
She and her team also provide assistance for our LSU athletics staff members as they progress and navigate their financial journeys. Hillary’s ability to appropriately cater educational content to anyone in the room speaks volumes to her desire to authentically connect with and support others. If anyone can make financial literacy fun, engaging, and relatable, it’s Hillary!"
“I was fortunate enough to meet Hillary in July of 2018 and quickly realized her expertise and approach was different in terms of being able to capture the attention of student-athletes and give them usable information in real time. Her knowledge of the subject matter is incredible, and her delivery is impeccable.
Furthermore, she has a great grasp of the ability to connect with student-athletes because of her experience and credibility with professional athletes. The real value is that this is not a one-off or “check-the-box” type program; there is real and sustainable learning, and she always has strong takeaways from each session that students can use immediately.
We have had very positive feedback both from student-athletes and staff and I highly recommend her work without hesitation. If you really want a program that is going to give your students real skills that they can use daily, this is the program for you. Financial literacy should be a requirement for all students and this program is a winner in all aspects. ”
At Financial Footwork, we understand that each university has unique needs and requirements. We cater to those needs by partnering with the Athletic Department or NIL Team to develop a keynote or program for individual teams or the entire student-athlete body.
