Mayweather currently owes millions, including $7 million in back taxes, $1 million in back child support, and unpaid bills concerning a luxury Manhattan apartment and private plane services. The retailer tried to settle this particular matter (the watch and the bounced check) quietly, but without any luck.
When is America going to stop giving a damn about bastards like this guy? Is being black an excuse his kind of irresponsibility? It's racist to think blacks are genetically irresponsible. Something is really wrong with our permissive attitude that cultures this irresponsibility. It's ruining an entire segment of our society.
Mr. Mayweather should have asked for my advice before he went watch shopping.
Didn’t the merchant have instant check? Hell, we could verify if funds were currently available on a check when I worked with Autozone over 30 years ago. Obviously it didn’t work if there were other uncashed checks out there, but it worked to at least let us know it wouldn’t bounce that day.
I don’t know what is a bigger crime - bouncing a check for a $200,000 watch or charging $200,000 for a watch.
Buying one IMO.
The latter.
A couple years ago on our local NFL team - a player bought his fiancé some $750K earrings for their upcoming wedding.
They later broke up before the marriage
I recall seeing that he was able to sell the earrings (after fighting with his girl and her lawyers) for $150K
Doesn’t look like there’s a lot of wattage up there...
I’d say at least return the watch, but no doubt he hocked it immediately.
A fool and his money...
$750K FOR EARRINGS???I’d be afraid to wear them.
Dude, I was totally with you until you brought in blacks. What does being black have to do with this? Plenty of white celebrities/athletes follow the same wasteful path ending up just as broke. Why do you have to make it about race?
Audemars Piguet watch.
At least insist on Venmo!
Not a very good watch. Looks to be about 22 minutes slow right now.
Boxer Mayweather is said to have earned $1.2 billion over his lifetime.
Almost all of it went up his nose.....snx.
Are soon parted.
Ghetto rich.
