True, but he ain't in them dudes shoes. 15-20k on a car for a young pro football player won't mean anything, especially when he will be making 6 figures or better. Jewels and other superficial stuff is different, you can sell that bs back, but someone will always need a everyday car in the world.

I hear ya. Maybe I'm paranoid. But with a job like that where one injury could mean its all over, I just would feel more comfortable buying a new car once I got about 150k in the bank. But that's just me tho

Makes PERFECT sense, nothing wrong with that. Living within your means is how it should be.

Yeah keeping a $1,200 car is going to keep him from going broke:sitdown:

But if he spends $15,00-$20,000 on a decent everyday car, it won't make him go broke either. Guys are over exaggerrating the fact.

:ufdup:

Read the article breh. He has made about $45k before taxes up until now. I would be still driving my 99 civic if I came into the league out of college.

Dude didn't know he was even making the team why would he buy a new car?

exactly - dude was a 6th rd pick and he just started seeing regular checks. why spend money on a whip when your job isn't even guaranteed for next week?
