[@NNITRED]

First , AB got kicked out the arena league because he didn't pay his bills. AB is 35 and still flexing and stunting for approval from 16-19yr/olds. It also doesn't help that he's surrounded by "yes men" and "yes family". That's why he does what he does. It's catching up to him. I also think the mental tool of him pissing away $30M is gonna weigh on him even more going forward. All wounds self-inflicted.

[@TheCeddyboy]

When ninjas file for bankruptcy they are broke. Do you really think AB was smart enough to be heavily invested? Remember Adrian Peterson blowing 100 mil??? Most of these idiots mainly invest in fuckery.....

[@derrickb.alexander6472]

Forgive me! But, I am going to say this before watching this clip! I am a Pittsburgh Steelers’ fanatic! And, I saw this coming when he left us! Following the shot that AB took in that regular season game against Cleveland that year! AB had never fully recovered from that! It were a concussion, but more importantly, he were never the same (a mental health issue)! His eggs were scrambled and he should never have been allowed to play until he had been given a psychological evaluation for at least a year! But, his problems soon developed shortly there after that hit! First, with Big Ben and later with Miami and Tampa Bay! It extended to his personal life (domestic assault) and some drug charges later on! Now, finally spends by up all of his money after leaving the game the way that he did!

[@gregorymoore1210]

Unfortunately far too many people are thing driven….especially black folks. How many have read the Rich Dad/Poor Dad book? How many people truly understand the difference between Orange/green money? Now you’re spot on about value. Chad Johnson is the perfect example of a guy who knew his value. Lastly…people need to realize that asking for help isn’t weak. AB can right the ship but he needs to get out of his own way. And people need to become financially educated beyond simple principles. When you are now making six/seven figures, there’s a clock ticking on the cash grab. And during that grab, you have to learn why LLCs are used to protect assets, how bad spending habits need to be corrected and forecasting becomes primary. Hopefully these current players are getting those free lessons and the rest of us are asking the right questions.

[@LudiCrust.]

The reason he’s broke is bc he foolishly made enemies with the wrong people. He treated the Arena league like it was Mickey Mouse but there are some powerfully people involved. He also spent a fortune on designer clothes & jewelry which as you know is almost a complete loss. I pity the jeweler or pawn shop owner that has to tell him all those chains he bought for $100+k each are only worth their weight & that what he paid for was the jeweler’s “art”. I was in a pawn shop where AI only got $12k for a chain he paid $200k for. He got ripped off so bad the pawn broker felt sorry for him & gave him more than its weight’s worth. The reason AI is broke isn’t bc he supported so many people it’s bc he got ripped off by a team of conmen & he wasted millions on gambling & bottle service in the club every night.

I always marvel when I see athletes getting fined $50K, $100K, and more and acting like it's nothing because they have millions today. However, those fines could've generated interest for the next forty or fifty years and could be worth millions. It's not what you earn but what you keep; instead of trying to keep up with the Jones, why not drag them down to your level. (Actually, you shouldn't even worry about the Jones.)

@@kevinhummel6901 Athletes don't file bankruptcy solely for that purpose. That might be an added benefit, but no one files bankruptcy for child support. Bankruptcy stays on your credit for 7 years. It's really devastating financially and you only consider it if it's your last option financially.

[@ChiefsFanInSC]

AB actually is broke. He lists only $50k in assets, but has over $200k in credit card debt and $3 million in civil suit judgments. Even worse for AB is the fact he has destroyed his brand and doesn't have viable options to monetize his experience and success as an NFL football player. You will never see him as an on-air analyst and has burnt his bridges with the Pittsburg fanbase.
