Professional Athletes

Going for broke to achieve a desired goal has been known to yield significant benefits in your line of work. But taking significant risks can have dire consequences as a retirement strategy. The combination of poor or unscrupulous advice, risky investments and overspending to accommodate elaborate lifestyle needs are among the reasons many top-earning athletes suddenly find themselves in financial straits at a critical time in their lives. And the numbers are staggering:

“By the time they have been retired for two years, 78% of former NFL players have gone bankrupt or are under financial stress” and “60% of former NBA players have gone broke within five years of retirement.”

– Sports Illustrated magazine, May 2009
