Honestly I think if they won the World Series in 2000 with the money they used instead of paying Bobby I think it would have been looked on a little better than it is now
SAXMANIVAN so let's put this thing in perspective, he gets his deferred payments every year until 2035, then he gets his pension money from MLB, plus he gets a Social Security check, and he also gets Medicare
Need to start a gofundme page for the agent. Poor fella looks like he works hard for his clients best interest while rockin a broken old model iphone and tattered suit.
What I’ve learned is that wealthy people don’t spend their money on clothing and phones as much as “regular “ people. They continue to invest their earnings over and over so they never go broke. Plus the guy looks like he owned the koi pond towards the end. I think he’s doing well for himself.
Had he just took the 5.9 million and put it in an index fund he would have 17 million today. So far, Bonilla has been paid 14.29 Million. Food for thought.
Bobby Bo was my favorite Baseball player ! He didn't suck as some of you say ! He was great with the Pirates but going to the Mets and trying to put a team on his shoulders became overwhelming for him especially the high expectations the fans had from Bonilla.. He could have been a much better player if he was able to block out the media and dealing with the fans which have limited patience in N.Y.. Too me he should have had much more than 287 career Homers he was too big and too strong for less than 300 career homers
I know this guy didn't say that Bobby Bonilla had a big heart, word around the clubhouse as well as off the field was that the man was an absolute jerk
Can you imagine a recurring payment like that. And to find representation that has your best interest in mind. If only our Congress would be as interested in the well being in those they pretend to represent.
Good lol When i was a kid he was a beast for the pirates lol... I'm 37 now... he's still gonna be getting PAID til 2035? Good for him Btw George Brett is my uncle but I've never met him
If he helps out the poor then he redeems himself. If not he still will be the typical selfish lazy good for nothing athlete. All greedy jerks. If he gets sick all the money will not help him.
Time value of money: the $5.9 million in 1999 is equivalent to the current payouts using an 8.0% discount rate. Do the math. You wouldn’t be making this video if he had taking the $5.9 million upfront (in 1999). Again, do the math. The is nothing special here.
@Jack Torrance I can't believe he said this is nothing special here either. Of course we wouldn't be making this video if he took the 5.9 million lol. Bobby Bonilla day wouldn't exist. People don't have a solid grasp on finance or economics usually.
His agent is the GOAT of all agents!
Other players are like who is this guy?
He sits behind home plate at Dodger stadium every home game.
Prime example of: Don’t hate the player, hate the game.
Or the dumb executive that agrees with the contract
jdelgado216 why you hating?
Probably top 10 greatest sports agent of all time.
Ain't mad at him, we all wish we had a deal like this
I just ran into Bobby at a store yesterday. The most polite, chill, friendly guy I've met. Smart man, too.
Honestly I think if they won the World Series in 2000 with the money they used instead of paying Bobby I think it would have been looked on a little better than it is now
Canadians celebrate Bobby Bonilla Day.
We call it Canada Day.
And we do get fireworks and a day off from work.
Canada rules. Congrats to the NBA title.
Is another 🇵🇷
Smart man, got his money deferred and now he is chillin!
SAXMANIVAN so let's put this thing in perspective, he gets his deferred payments every year until 2035, then he gets his pension money from MLB, plus he gets a Social Security check, and he also gets Medicare
john jones yeesssssssss! He worked for it! What’s wrong with it? 🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️
"Like they say in the hood....'Chilllllin'. " Lol
I remember this how it all went down back then n now to see it's fruition is priceless.
Happy Bobby Bonilla Day!
Bobby is a true hero and his agent is the benchmark of sports agents
The Bobby bonilla day has truly inspired me to do my own DEFERRED COMP PLAN with my job.
Hope to reap the benefits
IF YOU MAKE This MUCH MONEY DON'T GET MARRIED.
Yeah just get a girlfriend or buy a strip club

Dennis Gilbert is that one guy that always sits down in the front row behind home plate at a Dodger Stadium homegame
Leandro Montoya I was wondering if that was him. Looked familiar.
Dan Gilbert is the real MVP
Salute to Bobby B.... first thing they teach you growing up in the Bx #SECURETHEBAG
Yessir.....
I am a Mets fan and I respect the agent for pulling this off 😂
Bobby “Money” Bonilla 💰
Get that Money Bobby$$$$$$$$$$$$
Happy Bobby Bonillia Day 😊✊🏿

I wish i could get him to autograph a couple cards and im a OAKLAND A'S fan
Yo this mans did the right thing he kept the right people close and returned the favor good looking out
S
And I thought the best agent ever was Jerry Maguire
Awesome !!! Great video !!
Had he just took the 5.9 million and put it in an index fund he would have 17 million today.

Agent of the century
How much does the agent make of this deal?
wow..now that's a power move😆👍👍
Me and my dad always look for Dennis when the Dodgers play.
Wonderful story.
What made it that much worse was how bad he was after signing this contract!
Its Booby Bonilla Day! 2020
His agent turned 6 million into 50 millon wow

Great story

So what, make them bones

I bet the agent gets his part every July 1 so he's not complaining either.
Awesome
Mr. Met. Spoiler Alert.
It should be Dennis Gilbert day!
Madonna even wrote a song about him; "La Isla Bonilla".
Food for thought, if someone is speaking maybe u should pause the captions at the bottom. Too much going in the vid to keep up with 🤷🏻♂️😂
💛
Good lol
When i was a kid he was a beast for the pirates lol... I'm 37 now... he's still gonna be getting PAID til 2035? Good for him
Btw George Brett is my uncle but I've never met him
His agent get 10% as well
Seems fair
He got pictures on someone
Yahoo, buy this man a new phone
Anybody here because of christian Yelich
Dam good agent
Top 10 finesse.
Any other fans get texts from their friends/yankee fans on this day annually ??
because bobby was smart as shit...deferring doesnt happen anymore
Did you not watch the video they showed a current National player with a deferred contract
It’s also Canada day so like all of Canada is celebrating that day lmao tf
I Almost forgot black guys played baseball once upon a time.😎
It took you more than five minutes just to say that his salary was deferred over many years. Okay.
Far cry from The Killer Beez
Bonds
Bonilla
Beuchelle
The fans pay
Lol the Phillies will be paying Bryce Harper into the next century 😁
Nikolai Yankov roughly $17,000 per game 😀
So he made an extra $20 million 💵💵💵 on the 🤝!???
Old ass phone
get you a Dennis lol
Have fun buying 1 bag of Cheetos puffs with that 50mm in 25 years
Somebody missed economics 101.
Damn I hope the Orioles aren't watching this.
This is old news. How many times are they going to bring this up
Jaysmith and u keep coming. Back
Until the last payment + 100 years
That's what your girl says about your weenie.
BANK
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahaha.
And God denies me a few lousy dollars.how ironic!.
If he helps out the poor then he redeems himself.
If not he still will be the typical selfish lazy good for nothing athlete.
All greedy jerks.
If he gets sick all the money will not help him.
This is a garbage millennial take on Bobby Bo. Guy was an excellent hitter for most of his career. Any Boomer or GenXer knows who the Killer B's were.
Friggle Dee where do his stats come into this except for that last horrible season
@@heyhoppy539
They're portraying him as some run-of-the-mill player when the guy was a perennial all star.
Friggle Dee they did list off all of his accomplishments
He was bad when he got to the Mets.
@@oMaJoJ
Which time? The 1st time he wasn't.
he sucked so much he got a contract to go away 😂
Aztec MC and still banking for the next few years 😏
Arthur & Arlanah vlogs hes not a rabbit, but he is a vermin, or a leech perhaps. either way he is a blood sucking rat.
