I have known for a long time that about 1/3 of all lottery winners eventually will declare bankruptcy. In some cases, folks who have received $100,000,000 or more STILL have managed to lose all their money!! Little did I know that for professional athletes, the statistics are FAR worse! According to a 'Sports Illustrated' article, MOST basketball and football players are bankrupt or nearly bankrupt within just a few years of retirement. To illustrate this, "Broke" interviews tons of athletes--those who made wise investments and those who were foolish and lost it all. All in all, a very compelling show and one I wish all young athletes who dream of going pro would be forced to watch--at least a couple times, as young folks too often feel invulnerable and the message might not sink in the first time!! Well made and VERY compelling stuff.
