    One of my favorite movies of all-time is Rocky. One example is that Rocky signed a power of attorney to an accountant who squandered most of his hard earned money and Rocky owed the tax man a hefty amount. He couldn't be able to pay his creditors so he had to file for bankruptcy and Rocky and his family had to go back to where he first began his boxing career. In the later movies, Rocky learned his lesson and is more financially stable also owns a restaurant that bears his late wife's name!

After all that he still claimed the vikes never supported him. I'm sure he blames the mothers of his seven children.
    Oh I'm sure he blames other people for him riding in on a camel at his birthday.

      The thing about that kind of money is that it's not terrible hard to invest responsibly. put 3/4 of into a mixture of roughly 75% domestic bond funds and 25% of it in mutual funds that are tracking the market average. Do something roughly similar with foreign investments and you're probably going to be fine. You're not going to be maximizing growth, but if you've got that kind of money, you really don't need to maximize it. You could still lose half of the money and not have to work again.

They want to take care of those they love. They have never had any education around money...and the large sums seem to never-ending. This scenario is regretful.

      Many NFL players and pro athletes are usually in their early twenties and they think they know everything and haven't had life skills. This reminds of a young man who tried to come into a farm business and he nearly ran that farm into the ground because he got the baby boomer parents who owned most of the farm to believe his ideas rather than listening to the gen x son who was slowly purchasing the farm. The gen x son wanted to invest the money in CD and other secured investments while the 22 year old millennial (2013 is when this happen) got the baby boomer to squander the windfall profits they had from the gen x son who was careful and grew record corn and grain sold it with record high prices.
      In short, the baby boomer parents believe in the outsider 22 year old millennial and nearly bankrupt the farm by buying new equipment that wasn't needed and expanding their operation without a plan for return. He had them thinking that they could bank roll and cash flow at $6 corn, $14 beans and $20 milk. The gen x knew that wasn't sustainable or logical because commodity prices do crash.
      In the end the gen x son was right and the millennial was wrong. The millennial left the family holding the bag on his major mistake. I feel for the gen x son because his parents believed in the millennial who knew nothing about finance and money. The millennial only knew trends. Trends come and go and people don't realize that. Good financial discipline can sustain oneself.

      It doesn't take $30K per month to raise a kid. I understand he needs to take care of his kids and I am not against men paying for their kids...but his ex for example getting $30K monthly for support encourages her not to work and to still depend on him when she doesn't even deserve that $$.
      My boss's ex wife was taking $3100 in child support and another $600 in alimony for their two kids and for years he struggled. When his daughter went off to college since his son joined the Marines, her mom had saved *NO MONEY* for college for her or her brother (had he gone). 8 years of child support payments would have been enough for a state school. Luckily he had some hidden investments for her but his ex is now broke and homeless.
      It's not all but there are mothers out there that just care about a check and not allowing the man to see his child which ultimately affects their children and how they become. 80% of the USA's prison population come from single mothers so clearly fatherlessness is a huge issue.

Being a parent is the most important job anyone could ever have; it’s sad to see so many abuse it. How come it’s never the honorable men with honorable exes and vice versa?
