What's new...

Long list of NBA guys who made and lost tens of millions. Its a shame but it happens

[soul786]

I used to look up to that guy, back in his Philly days I had the jersey too

But why can't they just put a little nest egg away? Is it really so hard to put $5 mil away in like a money market account and just say "that's for a rainy day and I'll never touch it unless absolutely necessary?"

Is it really that fukkin hard to put just a little bit aside for yourself? He really had to go and blow every fukkin penny until he was fukkin homeless?

Are they really that fukkin stupid?

[CanuckG]

Don't feel bad for that prick. $154 Million in career Salary. $50 M endorsement from Reebok.

[GIVEMETHEMONEY]

Soul it doesn't look like your avatar is wearing any kind of jersey!!

[Untied]

Practice good money management? Practice?

[cankid]

Bad crap, sad stories coming out lately, get an advisor or something that puts u on a budget

[PhillyFlyers]

That's cold bruh. I shouldn't laugh but I couldn't help it.

[GoBlue77]

whats sad, that these morons dont know how to save a dollar.

[Kermit]

Well, you can't continue to live ghetto fabulous when you don't have a job and you didn't invest wisely while you did.

[Big Bear]

not surprising. Hell if half the NFL wasnt playing pro football they would be in jail.

its a hard knock life.

"According to TMZ"

Saloon this shit

FYI; Iverson is not "homeless" because of a foreclosure action.

Or even just take the 5 mil and pay cash for the house.

[vaas187]

don;t feel sorry for anyone, especially these , who spend millions and have nothing to show for it.

i'd rather give a meth addict a dollar

[Cuse0323]

Sadly this makes me feel better about my own stupidity when it comes to money.

[tony_come]

He will sue the nba

How isn't he? That property was the last possession of any real value he had.

[will2survive]

What? This ASSWIPE turned down a chance at playing in the D League for Dallas and getting back into the NBA-------Don't feel sorry for him.

[UntilTheNDofTimE]

People from the hood dont trust banks or white people. Haha. I dont feel a ounce of sorrow for these nba players but 70% of americans live paycheck to paycheck so can you actually say your any better? Most will have rebutals consisting of " well if i made millions of dollars...". Im sure when you moved into your first apt making 20-30k u got by just fine. As you made more money you spent more. People tend to consume 105%. Im a good saver but if i was out of work for 3-5 years( about how long it takes avg athlete to go broke) i'd be hurting too.

"homeless"=guy living on the streets. he's got a roof over his head.

[ACoochy]

Don't know why everyone is so hard on the guy.

Think of all the money he poured back into the economy??

[ttwarrior1]

yet turns down a contract to play ball, what a moron

Maybe he could coach since he was great he must be able to coach right?
Oh yeh thats a flawed theory

[PhillyFlyers]

For how long? He's got no job, no income, and child support payments to make.

He went to Georgetown. One of the best universities in the country.

[MrPlow456]

Loved Iverson as a player, but I have no pity for someone who burns through millions, has too big an ego to take a job playing basketball, the only profitable skill he ever had, because he had deemed the opportunity as beneath him, and then finds himself out on his ass due to poor money management and general stupidity.

If the D league is beneath him, I wonder how he'll feel when he's flipping burgers trying to pay child support.

[minet123]

Maybe his on the down low friend at 62nd and Spruce will let him stay

[konck]

He is garbage he was a complete Dik with the Grizz

[TheCentaur]

They get paid millions and are free to spend it as they wish then go broke...white man's fault

They are required to have an advisor who curbs their car collecting and bling buying...modern day slavery the white man keeping them down

You can't win with these people

[pavyracer]

Why does someone with $200 million income gets a mortgage? And since he bought the house for $4.5 million and only owed $1.2 million on mortgage why didn't he sell it before it was forerclosed and downsize and pocket the cash? I swear these professional athletes are dumb.

[rm18]

I thought AI has a lifetime contract form Reebok like 5 mill a year?

If he does, he better get them on the phone quick and ask for some loot.
