Bobby Bonilla was about that life

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

"Like the homeboys back home would say, we just chill-lin"


nikka Bonilla is hilarious...and smart, and PAID lol Took that deferred payment and instead of getting like 6 mil...he parlayed that into 30. He doesn't have to work a day in his life again and he's STILL getting millions...where did I go wrong in life? lol

Yeah, the way he said "we just chillin " was flawless

I hope he lives until every dollar of that contract is received

what the hell kind of contract did he sign?

Why the New York Mets Still Owe Bobby Bonilla Nearly $30 Million - WSJ.com

SAN JUAN, P.R.—One year from today, the Mets will add to their payroll a 47-year-old, past-his-prime power hitter who has a reputation as a malcontent—a player who has been retired from professional baseball for nine years and won't play another game again.

Nevertheless, starting on July 1, 2011, Bobby Bonilla will remain on the franchise's payroll for 25 years, collecting an annual salary of $1,193,248.20. Those are the terms the Mets agreed to Jan. 3, 2000, when they bought out the final year of Mr. Bonilla's contract.

"That beautiful thing," he said here Monday.

Years earlier, Mr. Gilbert had negotiated with former Mets general manager Al Harazin a similar deal for Bret Saberhagen, who pitched for the team from 1992 to 1995. For 25 years starting in 2004, Mr. Saberhagen receives annual deferred payments of $250,000. So when the Mets decided to buy out Mr. Bonilla's contract, they had precedent and a template already in place for such an agreement.

By postponing their payments to Mr. Bonilla for 11 years, the Mets freed enough money to trade for starting pitcher Mike Hampton and outfielder Derek Bell and sign first baseman Todd Zeile. Those three players earned a combined $15.1 million in 2000, and the Mets reached the World Series that year for the first time since 1986.

But the team has reached the postseason only once since, and it can be argued that the short-term gain of the arrangement with Mr. Bonilla wasn't worth the long-term cost. Because the Mets are repaying him with interest, Mr. Bonilla will earn $29,831,205 between 2011 and 2035—more than he earned in his first contract with the Mets.

"Bobby's a very smart person," Mr. Gilbert said, "and he understands the value of income."

Its interesting because arguably, it worked out great for all parties involved. The mets used that money to get free agents and went to the world series...I'm pretty sure that spoke to their bottom line more than what the cost for their deal with bobby and bret cost them....and for those 2 its obviously a great deal...ten years at 8%? He basically got the best fixed annuity of all time and he doesn't need to wait until he's 59 1/2 to get it
