Has Jonah Lomu ever worked as a bank teller???

Question

Has Jonah Lomu ever worked as a bank teller and if so was it while he was playing rugby for nz?

Answer 1

He does now.

Answer 2

Yeah he was.  He worked for the ASB (Auckland Savings Bank).  He played at the same club as me (or i played at the same club as him.... whatever) when he came out of High School and worked at a bank until around 1997-1998 I think.  Even though rugby went professional in 1995, most All Blacks had other jobs up until Adidas came along with the huge sponsorship deal that gave the NZRFU more money.

So to answer your question, yes he was and yes it was.  He was splattering Mike Catt all over South Africa in the 1995 RWC and still working at the ASB a month later.  I suspect that him actually being at the ASB is like seeing him at the club... extremely rare... even our Provincial team hardly ever saw him.
