Aged 22 with an NBA contract worth $15,000, Bing was rebuffed by the National Bank of Detroit on getting a mortgage to finance a home. This led Bing to work at the bank during the offseason, holding jobs in the teller, customer relations and mortgage departments.
That is a great indicator of what kind of man he was destined to become. He could have taken the easy route and ran to the NAACP and ACLU but instead chose to go to work for the bank.
