      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.

    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

    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.
