Most NFL and NBA Alumnus Broke!

[Alexander Hamilton]

In the United States, no group of athletes get the press coverage and celebrity status like professional football and basketball players. Regretably, most athletes that dominate these genres are Black (NFL is nearly 2/3 Black, the NBA is nearly 80% Black).

This has a debilitating effect on Whites, especially youngsters, seeing Black athletes constantly get the lion's share of the fame and glory and also get to date beautiful White women and make millions of dollars. However, the money does NOT last in most instances. I always knew that a lot of celebrities blew ridiculous sums of money, but had no idea of the extent of it.

Almost 80 percent of National Football League players are flirting with bankruptcy two years after they retire, according to Sports Illustrated. NBA players aren’t faring much better. 60 percent of former National Basketball Association players end up broke within five years of retirement.


This story unfortunately does not break the losses down by race, but I'd be willing to bet the White retirees are doing much better in proportion to their Black counterparts.

Their agents are probably doing well financially though. Evander Holyfield is broke and he used to live in a mansion in Georgia. My favorite story was about Bret Favre during his superbowl days. He was the top quarterback in the world and yet, as the story goes, he lived in a trailer on a plot of land with a truck and a dog. He'd just practice all day and go home.
Meanwhile, all the bling and the rims and fashion and, 3 years upon retirement, most of these flashy guys are working at car dealerships.
