Joe Thomas: Why can’t we buy furniture at Walmart?

[@XercesandAlexander]

I like this guy. Seems like good people.

[@Andy-pl7nk]

Then you didn't see the other clip where he talked about how he asked another mans girlfriend out in front of the guy, and called him ugly and small.

[@schloughed3219]

He won't go broke when he retires.

[@foshastajones]

This guy is my kind of guy. I'm gonna start cheering for the Browns just to see this guy win.

[@pp3k3jamail]

foshastajones too bad he's on the browns

[@NobodyUR]

Lol how'd that work he retired before this interview

[@grimrecords19]

Unfortunately he wasted a great career there

[@unwelcomemotivation]

when your wife leaves her boyfriend at the time because you asked her out and she already knows who you are...what can you expect other than her spending your money?

[@prototypeprofessor3747]

Stevey Irwin 5 months between him asking for her number and her breaking up with her bf. Two months after that, she gave him a call. Soooooo...

[@unwelcomemotivation]

@@prototypeprofessor3747 Joe Thomas himself "I believe that was false (she obviously was trying to make herself look better) I called her a few days after. I think things were rapidly deteriorating at that time, you know - college boyfriends and girlfriends and all" ....if you're ever dating a broad and she gives a guy her real number when he asks her out for a romantic canoe ride, you probably shouldn't be too surprised when she dumps you and calls that guy who's number she saved for "7 months"...but yeah, goodluck with that, seriously.

[@mattjimmyjam]

Her little bucket of responsibilities 😂 I love it

[@alexgrigoryev9387]

This guy is definition of class I wish he won more I wish my team had more players like that

[@nologic29]

Wife: I want to get an interior decorator Me: Bitch, you got interior decorator money?

[@kdub9198]

AyeRayRay Wife: No but my boyfriend does.

[@azn412]

AyeRayRay and this is why she sucked off the interior decorator when he was there lmfao

[@BloggerMusicMan]

He understands intuitively what a lot of people who end up doing well financially understand. It's ok to splurge every once in a while, but never live beyond your means. Always stay within your budget. You don't have to live "fancy" to live well.

[@versatillion15]

1:25 “it’s gonna be a fight if I try to understand it” guy YOU MADE THE MONEY how the hell can there be a fight smh

[@ephanhymerable]

Lmao! My dad must have bought your dads car! No reverse. I was so embarrassed when he'd pick me up & have to get out n push the car backwards 😂

[@daveconleyportfolio5192]

Joe's dad must have had a gigantic left leg. Maybe he rode shotgun occasionally to build up his right one.

[@JM-gj7de]

Great Wisconsin kid right there.

[@marqueswilliams345]

Man gotta like a guy like Joe Thomas

[@rayj.9568]

Installing curtains for a common 2200 sq ft, single story house with ten exterior windows, can easily set a family back $1000. Joe Thomas's home is probably considerable larger. This proves that Mr. Thomas is indeed frugal.

[@bobanderson6656]

True. Per window, not that much. Considering how long the window treatments will last, buy once cry once....... Yes, I did that math with my wife for one window..

[@marksprinkle]

When someone didn't have to earn the money themselves and someone else basically gives them the keys to the vault, $1000 for curtains isn't a big deal.

[@Jas_Flash92]

Mark Sprinkle it is a big deal because the person that’s giving you the money, is still that persons money. regardless of who the fuck they are. I wouldn’t even spend $500 on curtains, not even $100 psh! Waste of fucking money honestly. I think u need to think deeper on life. I’d rather spend that much money on something USEFUL and reasonable. real men would not spend that much on bullshit. He needs to start being a man and learn how to say NO.

[@monkeydude9192]

@@Jas_Flash92 I think what he's saying is that the person spending someone else's money doesn't view it as a big deal how much they overspend.

[@davidr4523]

For being an NFL athlete or just a human being, this Joe Thomas is intelligent, has excellent communication skills and comes across as being highly likeable.

[@kathykolcun6791]

Lol Joe is awesome

[@prodcdebeatz7205]

more ppl should be raised this way. now ppl are raised to buy things just to avoid awkward reactions by society's robots

[@jonathantorres1243]

Joe is the man

[@westinnewman3572]

Joe Thomas on a moped... god bless.

[@kingkang6877]

I like him just b/c he said 'Big Lots.' Dude - i still love Big Lots. And I'm well past college days.

[@samuelbieneman4739]

Where did he find a place for only $300/month in downtown Madison?

[@luke75niko]

Samuel Bieneman probably had roommates

[@Tim_Marshall73]

Samuel Bieneman and that was what 10-13 years ago

[@mikehoncho3015]

He was in downtown Madison in like 2004 dude and had roommates

[@mtadams2009]

Home furnishing cost a lot and once your married they cost more. I have knew I needed a ten thousand dollar bathroom vanity or four thousand dollar light fixtures but my wife did. Every time we purchase things for the house the salesperson will look at me and I always tell them the same thing, I am only here because I have to be. I spend my money on tools, Mt bikes and skiing. We all have our things.

[@juanitadudley4788]

Quality furniture at Walmart and Big Lots?!? Not good quality.

[@danielholtxxl4936]

Some people horde stuff. Others horde money. Neither one is a good balance. Everything in moderation. Including moderation.

[@kevinw627]

Rare breed right there

[@Jas_Flash92]

And it’s not about being cheap at all. It’s still ridiculous to this very day as to why ppl spend loads amounts of money on shit that’s not even worth that much or neee at all. you DONT need it. just buy shit u want and that’ll serve a purpose and you’ll have for a long time. ITS NOT ABOUT BEING CHEAP AT ALL. It’s called being smart and spending wisely, regardless of how much money you have. another huge problem ppl have. They like being followers and copycats.

[@broadcasttttable]

You're single, right?...lol

[@nightmares356]

Wisconsin people different

[@deweywatts8456]

Looks like he found the hamster wheel

[@newyardleysinclair9960]

His wife doesnt sound frugal. She was just pushing for thousand dollar curtains. Lol. I guarantee it wasnt the kids

[@jono601]

There are also the crazy psycho controlling families that are just cheap. It’s easy to be a penny pincher. It’s difficult to create wealth.

[@ryangamble32]

Say they practical but spends $1000 on curtains and drapes 🤷🤔

[@buckylove6918]

they both talk weird its tripping me out

[@freedomaintfree49yearsago28]

It's called English

[@KevinCummingsFitness]

He should’ve played for Pittsburgh

[@no_handle_found]

I am an Interior Designer and own a furniture factory.. So, let me explain u why u spent 1000 bucks on curtains. Over last 10 years u have made millions of dollars.. But if u wud have continued living with same frugal life style, u wud have accumulated a lot and lot of money... Which is bad for country's economy.. When u purchased those curtains, u brought money back in the market, more businesses made profit, more employees get paid and eventually these employees purchased nfl ticket to watch u play.. So, dear sir, be happy ur curtains saved country's economy and nfl..

[@prototypeprofessor3747]

No you idiot. The money sitting in the bank gives that bank the ability to loan money to other people, to buy houses, to buy cars, to start businesses. He puts that money in the stock market or invests in Forex? That’s literally pumping money into the economy, You don’t understand the economic effects of investing at all of you think ‘holding money’ hurts the economy.

[@versatillion15]

You didn’t explain to him why he did it all you managed to do was find the food in the situation...still don’t know why

Hide your wife. This guy loves him some him! And he was a nobody in terms of NFL?

[@newyardleysinclair9960]

He got a big contract but basically

[@Buddzzy]

Yup. Very loyal? 😂

[@jacke2815]

He’s going to be in the hall of fame. He’s not a nobody

[@BRANDON-FJB]

Yea....real rough life he leads smh

[@sbeers88]

$1000 for drapes = frugal. I don't think Joe knows the meaning of the word frugal.

[@r3d5ive87]

When you’re young and single and use thumbtacks to attach a blanket to the wall in front of a window then $1,000 for draperies is a lot.
