Ouch Its funny that Chan Ho Park who bankrolled 70 million dollars for doing nothing the last decade is that angry over 230 grand.
December 28, 200916 yr http://mlbsecrets.com/baseball/salary/Kreuter/Chad/kreutch01 What's most interesting about this case is that here's your average MLB "journeyman" catcher who played 16+ seasons and made over $8 million dollars in his career, yet even that apparently wasn't enough. It would be interesting to see where things went awry, as it would be instructive to former and especially future players to understand more about investments and finding the right accountants/agents to manage their finances...or perhaps this was just a case of getting caught up in the real estate market like the rest of America around 2000-2008?

What's even more interesting is how this will affect his job at USC.
December 28, 200916 yr Sometimes I feel it's justice that my family can survive perfectly on about $110K income a year, and yet these athletes can not make it on even $2M a year.
