Look around and you can easily find stories of athletes losing all of their money on sites ranging from TMZ to the Wall Street Journal. I remember when Artest was a rookie with the Bulls. SI did a story on him and all the people he was supporting. It was a list of like 30 people and the mag even had the pages fold out so you could see the picture of all of them. Also, when he was a rookie, the Bulls found out he had a job on the side at Best Buy and made him quit. He took the job because he said he wanted a discount on electronics. He's an interesting dude.
