I know this sounds rude, but i can't feel sorry for anyone who's had that much money and blown it for whatever reason.

Absolutly...

Holyfield, who is a multi-millionaire, isn't making any new money, so he has to stop living like a multi-millionaire and start living like a regular millionaire.


Bill Detlof wrote about this before. How the way Evander lives, he will never be able to sustain his wealth.

Well put, I was going to reply with something like this. Repped

It seems very few people can live within their means. ANYONE that makes over $100k has no excuse for not having some sort of passive income, be it rental property, a small business or conservative invesments in bonds and CDs. I can't feel sorry for Holyfield, I appreciate what he's done in the ring, but he's been very irresponsible out of it, just having that many kids to begin with and then not having a financial plan is just ludicrous.

Agreed with the bulk of the replies, hard to sympathise with anyone thats made $100 million and is now in financial difficulty

I personally never understood why athletes or celebrities who have all these millions upon millions of dollars insist on living so lavish a lifestyle. I can understand when you first start out and you are just getting used to being able to afford what ever your heart desires and going on binges but after a while enough is enough.

Common sense tells you not to live in a house that has taxes higher then your yearly bank interest. Common sense would tell you to have other business venues to keep your wealth sustained. If those ventures are not working out cut some corners. Try the Corvette instead of the $500,000 Ferrari. I promise no one will make fun of you.

Like other posters have said already. I can not sympathize with someone who carelessly lets that much money be blown foolishly.

Wasn't he US olympian? Then he should be receiving somekind of government pension right?

His mansion was as beautiful as the uppercuts Riddick Bowe hit him with.

Very sad cuz the guy is one of my all time favourites but the lesson has to be learnt that if you put it around when you are younger, you pay for it when you are older.

This is on CNN now, Holyfield. Poor Ed McMahon was on last night complaining too.

Boo hoo hoo.

You both done pissed away your fortunes and have to move out of your castles.

Boo hoo hoo.
