Scratch the money in the bank talk...

If you are a bust...let's say you got that one big contract...and then you are out of the league...that means you will not be getting anymore of that nfl money...

let's say you get 23 million over 5 years...

Uncle Sam is talking a minimum of 35% of that...and that is really generous...that leaves you with about 14.9 mill...

Your agent is gonna get let's say...again generous...10 % of your guaranteed money...that leaves you with 13.4...not bad, but you haven't spent any of it yet and you are down to about half of wait you made...

Now you buy the house...you buy your family a house...you buy the cars...you buy the jewelry...let's say you go conservative for your lifestyle...2 mil house for you...2 mil house for your family ( mom, dad, siblings)...you got to pay property taxes every year...those are prob gonna run you a 100,000 or more for each house...no mansion...if you making money like that you pro feel like you need a mansion...

factor in maybe another 200,000 on cars ( you got the whole 9, rims, dvd in the cup holder...everything )

Uh oh, you got some chick at king of diamonds pregnant...her comes that child support...you lucky though because she only had that one kid...

Uh oh, you getting sued because someone around you chokeslam a bytch through a table...hope you got a good lawyer...

Now you are a bust and out of the league...you are not getting another nfl check, and you are not getting on tv or anything...because you were a bust...nobody wants to hear you talk about football...nikka u sucked...

Even if you payed the house off in full...you still got those taxes everywhere...you still got that child support...

The issue with the money thing is people look at it from the perspective they have now, if course you would be set for life, because you are used to living off of 10's of thousands of dollars...but if you were an nfl player...you would be used to living off of millions of dollars, and probably spend accordingly...plus. you prob wouldn't know you were a bust... you prob would be like "i'll just take a little less money and then prove myself on my next deal"...

Obviously if you are an idiot then shyt is not gonna work out for you. Bad decisions make anything bad.

Save your money, move to small town or city away from where you played, and start a second life.

PCP's right though. The sense of failure will probably haunt you, and money can't do anything to change that.

I wouldn't call anything I posted an idiotic move...

1. If you are making 23 mil out of the gate...and working in a field ( in this case the nfl ) where there a plenty of people make at least 3 mill a year, would you not by a 2 mil house for you and a 2 mil, house for your family? Remember to be a bust, you have to be a high draft pick...and if you are a high draft pick that means you are probably planning on playing for awhile and getting a lot of money for awhile.

2. I just through the stripper thing out there...but realistically, you are going to be living that lifestyle...women are going to be throwing the puss at you...the chances of you not having a lot of sex with a lot of women is slim...and the chances of you always putting a condom on are slim...

3. The cars and stuff...maybe...but i doubt you will be playing in the nfl and driving a prius or honda accord...

The first thing I'd do if I got drafted was get a vasectomy. It might seem extreme but it'll save you a lot of pain in the long run :ld:

Reality is making the NFL is a huge achievement in itself, and entails being a star at every level of football leading to it.


I knew a dude who got signed as an undrafted free agent by the Rams this past summer and he had 2000000 FB comments congratulating him :heh: He didn't make the final roster. Imagine guys who are first rounders. Point is they don't lose this prestige by not producing in the NFL.

If I got that kinda money I'm saving it. Sure I'd have a nice home and a nice car and look out for the fam but my I would not gonna go broke trying to do it. There is a big difference between driving bentleys and lambos and a prius. There is plenty of cars in between. Besides one expensive car won't put in the poor house. Buy a fukking fleet and getting one for everybody and theri mama is what does that. If I had that kinda money and fame there would never be a time that didnt' have a condom on. :smugdraper:

If you don't go in with the right mindset it doesn't matter how much money you get you are gonna blow that shyt.

nikkas got to know they fukkin suck, that their coaches despise them, the local media probably shyts on them repeatedly and they know they gonna be out on their ass as soon as the GM can find a replacement. I know its a huge elephant in the room at the facilities.

I wonder if they feel like failures.....for completely under-performing and not fulfil

this man is atrocious :comeon: He has to know that everybody in KC hates his ass :pachaha:


First thing I'd do if I immediately got to camp and saw I wasn't gonna cut was SAVE MY MONEY.

And if ur a bust, chances are u were a college star and you'll always be loved around those parts.

But being a bust and being a millionare >>>>> a bitter ass fan. Thus I'd live like :jawalrus: daily
