9DRIP STORI3S | TYRON WOODLEY: THINGS THAT YOU PURCHASED WHEN YOU FELT THAT YOU HAD MADE IT

1. When I felt that I had made it, I bought my house in cash. I was evicted as a kid and it was just traumatic. I remember walking past the house and all of my friends knew that I lived there and it was a pink note and everybody knew. It wasn’t like, ok you pay your bill and move – furniture was outside – like real eviction.

2. I bought 2 Rolexes at the same time. I was on a set of a movie and I wanted to shoot myself with a Presidential Rolex. I couldn’t decide which one and there was a gentleman on set that decided that he had something to do with my decision making process and said, “I don’t know why you even need that fancy old Rolex, you know – that watch is fine to me.” But he didn’t know where I came from growing up in a family of 13, being homeless, evicted, gang banging – he didn’t know about none of that stuff. For me to even be here is a miracle. So, he said that and I had a jeweler from Miami send me a Rolex Presidential with a black dial.

3. I also had a jeweler from NY send me a Rolex Presidential with a gold dial. I couldn’t decide if I wanted the gold dial or the black dial so I bought both. Now I’m glad I did because it’s impossible to get a Rolex and both are worth 2 times the amount I paid for them.

4. My go-to is my Rolex watch, I have a few of them. They all can dress up an outfit and dress them down. They’re not filled with diamonds, we call them bust downs. When you put a lot of diamonds in your watch, they draw a lot of attention and I’m from St. Louis you know and it’s known for a lot of crime - #1 in the country per capita for capitol murders. So I don’t want to give someone a target for looking to think that they are going to come and grab it because 1 I’m probably not going to give it up that easily and 2, it’s attention that I just don’t want. People that know, know. They know what version it is and they know that the version with diamonds all over the place would never compare to that.

5. I’m a homebody. When I’m working, I’m working and when I’m home I’m home – I’m a soccer dad.

6. My vehicles – I have a RSM and I’m in the process of buying an electric vehicle that’s not a Tesla and I don’t even want to say it because so many people just limit exactly what I do and I want to just go and get it first.

7. One day I bought 7 cars. I bought my nanny a car. I bought my mom a car. I bought my step sons’ dad who was driving a 1996 Chrysler Sebring with no air conditioning – I didn’t want him and my step son to be out there like that.

8. I bought my ex-wife a brand new suburban and I bought myself an Audi RS7 and I bought my girlfriend a car as well. So I bought 7 cars. I was cutting up a bit.

9. I bought my mom’s house in cash too.
