Lol. Our son, is a financial advisor and handles quite a few, or did, pro football athletes money. No names, of course, but Monday mornings are hell on earth for our son and his staff. The phones start ringing at 8 am with panicked guys wanting their accounts to be re-filled to cover either their weekend expenditures or their families expenditures/ indiscretions for the weekend. They fight long term financial planning, and when funds are gone or there is huge tax ramifications, guess who is to blame? Our son has systematically gotten rid of these guys. More than once, he has to cover bail for the athlete or a relative.

Good for your son. A good financial planner can help families live better and make a good living at it as well.

My grandfather used to employ about half of a small town in East Texas back in the 30’s to the 60’s. He would pay the wives on Monday morning. In cash. Interesting thing was that he walked through town with a lot of cash on payday. Everyone knew that he had a lot of cash on him, but nobody tried to rob him.
