Tbh, in terms of horrible investments made by NBA players, this one doesn't even register. A top of the line bed is a relatively wise investment.
Anyone see that 30 for 30 "Broke?" There's definitely worse investments/purchases than this.

Better an expensive bed than an expensive car, tbh
At least you don't need to pay for the gas.
Bed Bugs will be having lifetime parties in that thing.

Anything custom made is going to be expensive. 23K for him is like 23 dollars for most of us. I'd give 23 dollars for a custom king size bed.

That was by far the dumbest most unintentionally funny 30 for 30 I've seen. They made it as if the audience was supposed to feel sorry for the athletes.
:crypeople don't understand that athletes are taxed in the highest bracket and don't understand how taxes work when they get their first paycheck:cry
:cryother rich people have CPAs who find deductions and ways to lower their tax rate and get stuff taxed at the cap gains rate:cry
Yeah well maybe the athletes should hire the same CPAs hedge fund managers hire and make safe investments in mutual funds where their proceeds can be taxed at the cap gains rate.
The inflatable furniture business idea was one of the best ones. Another good one was Mike Vick deciding a fat Asian woman named Wong, who worked out of her home because she wasn't allowed to work at any firm that traded on the NYSE after stealing money from two widows, was an asset manager he could trust.

Than after that didn't work, he hired a guy who's educational backgroun was in medicine but said he was a financial management expert.
Schilling was the guy who I easily had the least sympathy for. He went broke because he's a money grubbing neo-conservative who wanted to horde as much as he possibly could so he invested in a get rich quick idea. The guys who were taken advantage of by their parents are the ones I feel sorry for because that's the one situation I saw where the athlete got burned by someone they shoulda been able to trust.

The article says Jefferson is on 6-9...? I didn't think he was such a midget.

When LeBron goes down in flames it's going to be the funniest story by far.

That wasn't the tab from their title celebration, but allegedly from a trip to the club in 2011. CROFL $8 a bottle for Fiji water. :rollin
Then again, Andre Rison marrying Left Eye and having her burn his mansion down was pretty hilarious too.

DoK great post...that was hilarious...especially that football player who gave some broad access to his banking account...um, yeah, good move there...

This is true, plus they get these "never paid for" items like homes and shit where taxes eat them alive. Most white players do ok though.
