High-school athletes already train for game day. Train for payday too — taxes, contracts, agents, and brand deals — before the first NIL check ever lands.
NIL deals are coming earlier every year. Athletes are signing in high school, with parents and coaches scrambling to catch up alongside them.
The first time most athletes hear the word "1099" is from a tax bill. The first time they read a contract is the one their friend already signed.
You can be ahead of that. Eight chapters, about fifteen minutes each. By the time the deals show up, you already know what you're looking at.
What you get
Taxes without the panic
How NIL income works, why a 1099 is not a paycheck, and what to set aside before you spend a dollar.
Contracts you can actually read

Budgeting that fits real life
Build a system you would actually use — for $200 a month or $20,000 a month. Same framework, different zeros.
Brand-building basics
Why your audience is your real asset, how to grow one without burning out, and what brands actually look for in an athlete.

FAQ
Yes — free for athletes when your school is a NILifi partner. If your school has not signed on yet, you can still sign up; ask your AD or coach about getting NILifi for your team.
No. Most of our recruit-track athletes are years away from their first deal. The point is to learn the system before the money shows up, not after.
About fifteen minutes per chapter, eight chapters total. Most athletes finish over two or three weekends.
Only if your school is a NILifi partner — and even then, what they see is completion data, not your quiz answers. Your private learning stays private.
Free for athletes when your school is a NILifi partner. Otherwise — start anyway, and tell your AD.
