The child support video from TMZ also had the same kid in it (teenager) who didn’t support what the mom was doing because Ocho was taking care of him financially but the mother wanted money in her hand if i remember correctly

Also it’s wild how someone can say something good and some other poster jumped up talking about he was married mad times when that’s not even true, but ppl ran with it asap

Damned if you do lol

And side note Spirit ain’t that damn bad. It’s terrible due to $$ side (cheap flights ain’t cheap when your checked bags are $$$$) but if you only got a carry on/no bags it’s golden. My little hack is pay for the cheap ass flight then upgrade for $80 to the front big ass wide ass seats which still ends up way cheaper than any other ticket…but since Spirit is not “cool” for the culture, our asses act like they planes be crashing out or something lol. So weird
By the time you do all that it costs just as much as other airlines. If not you ain't shopping for flights right. I flew Spirit once to either Aruba or San Juan and was ready to scream from them small ass seats. I'm 6'0 with a bad knee and could not handle that shyt at all. Never again. I don't care how cheap the shyt is.

Overall I do think what he's saying is true. I agreed when Jalen Rose made the same point. He was basically saying that everybody knows he's rich so why spend hundreds of thousands on jewelry. His contract is public record so people know he's rich and will assume whatever he's wearing is real. I personally ain't for rocking all the jewelry real or fake cause I wouldn't want to make myself a target for the wolves.

I dunno why more famous people don't do this to be honest. it's a very smart move to fake it til u make it in that regard. not worried about losing it or it getting stolen. basically no headache.
I'm not even famous and I do it. Lol.

You can wear a name brand/designer shirt and then wear regular jeans and regular shoes. And it looks like your whole outfit is expensive.

doesn’t he have 6 baby mamas?

:comeon:

He bought fake jewellery out of necessity because of child support

Damn I didn’t know this


The woman says Chad was ordered to pay $6,000 per month in support ($72k per year) plus another $1,000 per month needs to be contributed to the child's college fund.

But the woman says Chad hasn't paid in full since Dec. 2015 and he now owes close to $40k.

Chad tells us he kept up with the payments for years after his NFL career was over -- but his financial situation has changed (he has more kids and no income) and he can't keep up.

"I have a nugget, but I have to make the cash last with all 6 kids for the next 18 years. We have to scale back."


Can we really be mad him? It does make him seem disingenuous but it’s still true in my eyes

First off, I never even acknowledged or even ran with the marriage story, so don’t include it in your comment towards me. Secondly, I even said that he was a good dude that just had money issues after his playing days like other athletes.

Those incidents are public record for consumption, so none of it is a lie. Posters keep trying to make what I said into a shot at him when that’s certainly not the case and I made that clear.
I said some other poster my guy

Yes the fukk it IS
Yea they planes be crashing all over the place :francis:

I go with the cheapest flight. Unless I gotta go somewhere super far or if it’s a vaca type deal where you want to feel luxurious.

I mean I guess if you don’t fly that often. But I do and flights are like bus rides these days to me. Just pick the fastest cheapest one and get there

Separate the advice from the man.

His advice is absolutely on point.

He clearly had financial missteps in the past. And learned from it and is moving better now.

nikkas need to be less cynical and jaded and take it for what it’s worth.


Dont throw out the baby with the pacenta,and even the placenta has nutrients:respect:
