I think if I were a football player, my plan would be to play for no more than two contracts, then get out before reaching 30. But so many players blow their money that they have no choice but to keep playing.
It’s sad to see what happens to those former athletes in dire straits” after watching 30 for 30 — “Broke” on ESPN. They’re typically come from lower class and the Universities they played for failed to give them an education which includes financial literacy. That’s the consequence of taking “Mickey Mouse” classes.
