If he ever got my bank account, he would just kill himself. Are you kidding, he is in every commercial. Ain't got enough lotion to last the rest of his life.

O’Neal earned almost $292 million in his NBA career, and his net worth in 2023 was a whopping $400 million. Whereas, Charles Barkley earned $40 million in his NBA career and has a net worth of $70 million.

Barkley further added, 

Got that cream soda, spreading diabetes all around the world. Got like 50 grams of sugar in one can of that cream.

The brand ambassador for his line of cream sodas is Shaquille O’Neal. It turns out that the “Soda Shaq” series of cream sodas from Arizona Beverage, which comes in flavors including vanilla, blueberry, strawberry, and orange, has already faced backlash due to its high sugar content.
