Yes, in Ronald Reagan's first term. Back then it was a lot less, and how long has it been. That money, which is far less than you think, would have been gone a long time ago.

You have to know she has made endorsements on name recognition….which translates MONEY

When was her last endorsement? I don't remember her endorsing anything after the few months after the Olympics. By 1985, she was old news. You think six months of glory means 38 years of riches. ….she shouldn’t be penniless

Bruce Jenner was on a Wheaties box as a manly man. Now he's a woman named Caitlyn. Wheaties Box's aren't the eternal testament you think they are.

By the way, divorces are expensive.

And us normal people don't realize, people who have a brief episode of fame usually end up bad off financially.

She was also self-employed and battling health and mobility issues for the last 30 years.

As someone who struggled with catastrophic medical debt (even with insurance), not having a reliable income can deplete your resources quickly. It got so bad, I sold my wedding ring one month to pay the mortgage.

Also, she recently divorced. Who knows what she lost in the split. It’s not just men that get hosed in court; sometimes the women do, too.

She made huge money from endorsements back in the day. I was in Atlanta in 1996 and saw some gymnastics and she was all over the place- and guaranteed she was being paid big bucks by some corporation.

Whether she burned through her cash is another thing all together which i have no clue about.
