  + stars: | 2024-09-22 | by ( Nicolas Vega | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +1 min
NBA super agent and founder of Klutch Sports Group Rich Paul knows there are certain people who believe he's only achieved what he has today because of his more than 20-year friendship with LeBron James. But the 43-year-old says he has been building up to this success all his life. "Many people think, 'He was LeBron's friend, LeBron gave him a job,'" Paul said during an appearance at CNBC x Boardroom's Game Plan Summit. Instead, Paul told the audience, it took years of hard work with "a lot of sacrifices made" to get to where he is today. Paul credited his success to the example his dad set running a convenience store, working "for the lowest margins you could ever imagine."
