“I was embarrassed, I couldn’t do it” - Shaquille O'Neal says he had to call someone to help his son fill out a resume, admits he’s in a lucky position in life

Shaquille O'Neal is one of the greatest players to ever play in the NBA. The big man recently sat down with Sunrise and shed some light on his personal life. O'Neal recalled the time when he had to help his son fill out his resume. He admitted that he was too "embarrassed" to do so and had to call for help.

Here's what the four-time NBA champion revealed in the interview:

"I am grateful because I've realised that the position I'm in life is a lucky position. I never had a real job in my life," O'Neal said. "I remember when I was practicing and trying to help my son fill out a resume, I had to call somebody cause I was embarrassed I couldn't do it."

The NBA legend has achieved a lot of success even after retiring. He owns several successful businesses and his net worth is estimated at $400 million. That makes him one of the richest former athletes.

Since retiring from basketball, Shaquille O'Neal has ventured into other fields, including DJing. He has traveled all around the world and put on great shows for his fans.

On August 24, DJ Diesel visited Melbourne, Australia. He has two more concerts on his schedule in September and will return to the United States to show off his skills in Florida and Ohio.
