Not only that. Which is typically why people go through money like water.
They also don't consider having services or employees on payroll, and all of the bills that cost to maintain vehicles, houses and businesses.
The world can take your money real quick if you don't know what you're doing and just basking in the surface luxury.
I don't feel sorry for these guys one bit. However I do understand why and how it happens.
Can they do without some of these things? Sure.
But just like any other competitive base occupation those things are status symbols.
You don't want to be the guy who is driving a Hyundai and living in an average house when everyone else has high luxury vehicles and lives in swanky pads.
It goes from that stuff to jewelry and clothes. A lot of that stuff is custom and tailor made.
Which is massively expensive and loses value from day one.
If they are smart, they should be like actors and actresses and get those things for little or nothing by endorsements.
Not sure how the NFL rules are for that though.
