When Kevin Durant gave his tearful MVP speech in 2014, the NBA star made sure to thank one person who had been there with him from the very beginning: his mother.His heartfelt words about the sacrifices she made for Durant and his brother led to a lifetime movie about her journey as a single parent, The Real MVP: The Wanda Durant Story.
Today, the NBA superstar's mum travels across the country as a motivational speaker and philanthropist(慈善家).On Monday, she spoke at Thomson Reuters' in New York about her personal struggles to achieve financial stability and shared the financial advice she gave her son when he entered the league with CNBC.
“I wanted him to realize he has worked hard,” she says, “and it is OK for him to enjoy himself because of his hard work.But it is also imperative that he prepares for his future.” While she advised him to enjoy the rewards of his labor, she also wanted to make sure that her son knew the importance of financial planning.
She told the audience that when she found herself a single parent to two children at 21, she couldn't follow the financial principles.Rather than planning for the future, she focused only on how her money could make ends meet for that moment.
Recently, Durant has teamed up with Laurene Powell Jobs for a new philanthropic programme called College Track which is aimed at helping disadvantaged kids attend college.As a member of the programme, Durant has committed to donating $10 million to his
hometown's public school system.
Durant's mum says that in addition to his financial decisions, she is proud of his philanthropic work and his desire to help the community.“I thought giving back was always very important, and so we talked about that and he had seen that from us as a family and it's one of the things that I taught him,” she says.

A.Durant's career path.

D.Durant's mother's struggling to be independent.
