My girlfriend is one of those people who gets how money works.
She earns less than $15,000 a year and gets about $600 monthly from social security, but yet her net worth makes it look like she makes MUCH MUCH more.. Her house is valued at around $250k and is completely paid for.
As she loves to tell people, they think she's a terrible housekeeper, but in fact during the divorce she kept the house. I'm one of the people who don't really care if I have a lot of money or not. Life still goes on and if I lose everything I own (I have lost everything several times) I can reacquire 'stuff' quickly ..
I don't have access to the books of the Cincinnati Bengals, but if I did I'm fairly sure that it wouldn't tell the same story that seems common on these forums about MB only sitting on huge stacks of cash like Charles Dickens' Scrooge .
Oh look! The ghost of xmas past!
I would actually be very shocked if the Bengals have less than $100 million in cash. Mike Brown has owned this team for over 20 years, there's no way he didn't make (and stash) $5 million per year.
