J.J. Watt has more money than he knows what to do with after signing a six-year, $100 million extension with the Houston Texans on Sept. 2.
No, really, he doesn’t know what to do with his newfound wealth, so like all people who are in need of answers, he turned to a trusty source — Google.
The defensive end followed up his monster performance Sunday against the Washington Redskins, recording a blocked extra point, a sack, a fumble recovery and two tackles for loss, by revealing that he took to the Interwebs after signing his massive deal.
“I Googled ‘What do rich people buy?'” Watt told FOX’s Laura Okmin after the Texans’ 17-6 win. “Because I don’t feel like a rich person, and I don’t really try to act like a rich person, so I don’t know what they buy. I didn’t really like the stuff I saw, so I’m gonna stick with my humble lifestyle and just keep working out.”
The All-Pro might have been inspired by Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Carlos Gomez, who Googled “rich-people conversations” after he signed his three-year, $24 million extension with the club back in May.
It sounds like Watt and Gomez should grab a bite to eat — a pricey bite to eat — and talk about rich people things together sometime soon.
