A Gentleman's Tale: Vin Baker
National Headquarters (GC) - Sometimes in life people make poor decisions. As a part of Gentlemen's Club, we pledge that it is "I and I alone" who is responsible for making good choices. Vin Baker is one of the most heralded athletes ever from the state of Connecticut. He was a NBA All-Star and won a Gold Medal at the 2000 Olympic Games. Over his NBA career, he made over $100 million dollars and lost it all. After working hard to overcome adversity, he has now taken his competitive drive from the hardwood to Fortune 500 company Starbucks.
Mr. Baker is proof positive that you can overcome any setback if you are willing to do the work! #WEAREGC
