    this is how you blow that much money...assume that it will come in forever, and spend $20 million a year, lock yourself into $1million per month payments, and a house and property that requires a staff of 50 (and salaries) to maintain. trying to double the population of the world doesn't help, either.
    Want to keep your money? Keep your dick in your pants and conduct yourself as a man, instead of as a cash-flush punk. Buy a house for cash that you can live in; don't build a monument to stupidity.

    Holyfield apparently isn't good with money, why else would he be auctioning a Bronze metal he won a the Olympics. It wouldn't seem like he'd get a hell of a lot for the metal.

    Holyfield was the one fighter that I thought would keep his money as he was smart and just had a lawyer and no other hanger-ons. Hell he was tight with his money and sacked Manny Steward because he thought he could not teach him anything. Just sad that he has children all over the place.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Hey if it contributes to him taking less fights and punches from guys who couldn't think of hanging with him decades ago, shine that thing up and E Bay that thing. Shit...should have been a Gold in the first place.

    Be great if his home town museum or something like that bid for it as well as a sporting institute. Pawn stars of Vegas would give him about $1800 tops

    Some rich sports nut might want the Bronze medal, and pay big bucks for it, but I kinda doubt it, unless they're just trying to help Holyfield out.
    The fact is the Bronze medal probably doesn't mean much to Evander, since he should by rights have won the Gold.
