Anthony had always envisioned himself being an entrepreneur after his retirement from the NBA, but he ended up jumping into earlier than he had imagined. At the beginning of his professional basketball career, the very first thing Anthony bought with his earnings was a investment property in 2009 for $80,000. That first investment has now turned into a full blown real estate company, 356 Real Estate, that is now involved in multi-million dollar deals. From there, Anthony founded 356 Ventures where is a successful investor in many companies across multiple sectors including: Tech, Media, Retail, Direct to Consumer, Software, E-Commerce, Group Fitness and more.
