“I’ve actually never played for money — I just thought you would go out there and hold a trophy,” Williams told sports business manager Maverick Carter on the personal finance video series “Kneading Dough.” “Not once did I think about a check.”

And regarding that first $1million check,

“I never touched [the money] — just put it in the bank,”

“And I remember I went through the drive-thru to deposit my check, and then they were like, ‘I think you need to come in for this,’ and so I ended up going inside, so I was like … ‘Just put it in my account!’”
