NBA players are RETARDED. The NBA offers FREE financial classes, FREE budgeting classes, internships to ANY industry...all of the connects you can possibly need. There is never any reason for them to go broke. Hell, look at Jonathan Bender.
What about bender?

Bender didn't have much of a playing career because of injuries. But he came up with an idea, developed some sort of training apparatus and used his available resources to develop and produce it. He's making money based on his new invention.

They are paid for their skills to bounce and shoot a basketball , not their $$$ money handling skills.

Doesn't surprise me in the least this happens, a lot of crafty smart men are around when millions are involved. They will obtain your money .

Don King was a master at this shyt
And this is why you learn the fukking basics, it doesn't take long. nikkas gotta be accountable, no excuse for not taking a fukking online course/weekend seminar/money for dummies book that will take 8 hours of your time to learn basic shyt. Don't get caught up in the shyt that's above your head, simple things like savings accounts, cd's, an investment account using mutual or index funds - pick a retirement fund and just roll with it, doesn't require market knowledge, you're not looking for arbitrage situations, not overspending for a home, buying multi unit property, BUDGETING etc. They invested in themselves on the court, they can be held to the standard to learn the basics off the court.

Can you not grasp the fact they cannot fathom this simple concept?

They bounce balls for a living, you give them too much credit

No I cannot, it's that simple. No one is asking them to do anything complex, simply go online, set up the accounts, and have automatic deposits sent to it. Read a book. If you can count, if you can chase p*ssy, if you can learn scripts for commercials, you can learn to budget. This board shyts on fat people for lack of discipline, I have that mentality for people being paid millions. DO THE BASICS - make a budget, stick to the budget, save, pay bills on time.

They're dumb hood nikkas who know how to play ball.

Ask any broke street nikka about finances, they spend what they have and live hand to mouth.

The quantity of money doesn't matter. They're still the same dumb nikka

Prime reason why redistribution of wealth will never work, those same people with the billions will end up with the billions.

Not everyone is as smart as you
