Horace Grant, a key player during the Chicago Bulls' 1990s golden era, became known for more than his strong on-court presence.
+
Diagnosed with myopia in the 1990–91 season, Grant was fitted with prescription lenses. He received league approval to wear them on court.
+
Even after undergoing successful LASIK surgery to correct his vision, Grant continued wearing the goggles without a prescription.
+
"The first couple years, they were prescription goggles," Grant commented. "I had grandmothers, grandfathers, mothers and dads coming up to me, letting me know that it inspired their grandkids and kids to wear goggles or glasses."
+
"So then I just continued to wear them without the prescription in it."

Ronald Read was a frugal gas station attendant and janitor from Brattleboro, VT. He lived a simple life. He wore worn flannel shirts, drove a second-hand car, and collected firewood for his stove.

Through savvy stock investments, Read quietly built an $8 million fortune. After his passing in 2014, he shocked his community by giving most of it away.
+
He left $2 million to his family, and the remaining $6 million was divided between the local hospital and library.
