: Ain't this some MESS!!! MediaTakeOut.com has been following the divorce battle of former NBA All-Star Jayson Williams for months. And now come to find out that Jayson - who made $87 million in his career - is FLAT BROKE!!
Here's how the NY Daily News is reporting it:
Former Nets star Jayson Williams cried in the courtroom and insisted he was broke Wednesday before he was ordered to pay his estranged wife the $200,000 he owed her.All you groupies and jumpoffs should take notice. These sports dudes are a BAD INVESTMENT!!!The boo-hooing basketballer, who made $87 million playing for the Nets, insisted he used the last of his money to pay the mortgages on his three homes in South Carolina.
"I don't think I had $150,000, but it is gone," Williams said on the stand during a Manhattan Supreme Court hearing.
He clearly has some emotional problems from everything that has gone on in his personal life and career so let's hope he doesn't attempt suicide over this court ruling. If this man is really broke then he should consider selling two of his homes since he can only live in one at a time anyway. 4u2.com
The more MOST people make the MORE they spend. Particularly if they are "showy". A gas guzzling hummer when a Tesla (that requires not gas) makes more sense, etc. etc..
He isn't the first and he won't be the last.
Everybody, regardless of race, religion, *** or national origin should research and invest their OWN money. ALWAYS LOOK OUT FOR YOURSELF, so that if someone else isn't you can identify their butts and get rid of them.
Over the years I have had very kind people in my life and the NO GOOD ones are generally the ones that you THINK should look out for you. THINK AGAIN!
A FOOL AND HIS MONEY SHOULD SOON DEPART! No more need to be said! Typical "black" male athlete!! Oh yea, where his friends, family and big ballers at!!! Laughing! And his most likely "WHITE" accountants and lawyers have more of his money than he did!!!! They laughing too, ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK!!!!!!!!!!
THATS THE PROBLEM THE "TYPICAL" BLACK MALE ATHLETE---------DON'T THINK!!!!! We still in a form of denial! Even after years of ending slavery we now allow ourselves to be a slave to something we still can't get use to MONEY! It has been said that it is the ROOT of ALL evil! And I add every DOWNFALL!!!
he probably made more than that he was already getting paid by the Nets&76ers before his bigass contract and he got paid from that cause marbury's bigole head broke his leg and had to retire early but insurance paid his *** then he went to work for NBC doing games he made alot more and his bumass had a construction CO.
@MSpatti1- I feel that. Shackles and chains has been replaced by MONEY that these po' Negro athletes can't seem to get enough of. Little do they know that their riches means NOTHING. And should they fall broke or injured, Uncle Sam will make sure to get his money. Every negro athlete that screwed up either financially or lost popularity has FALLEN BY THE WASTE side. These white boys and JEws can careless AS LONG as these negroes making them that paper.
