Medical bills can pile up.

Clair, let me tell about a friend of mine. Her name is Etta Munsen. She's 94, she's a widow living on Social Security in Sparta, Tennessee. Etta was born with only one kidney. She also suffers from polio, spinal meningitis, lung, liver, and pancreatic cancer, an enlarged heart, diabetes, and a rare form of cystic acne. Now, several recent strokes, along with an unfortunate shark attack, have left her paralyzed and missing her right leg under the knee. Just last week she woke from a coma to find that, due to a hospital mix-up, her left arm had been amputated, infected with syphilis, and then reattached.

As you can imagine.. Etta's prescription drug bills are staggering. They run to nearly $113 million a day!

That is just wrong!

Doesn't sound like much to me, for a NBA player. After taxes, agent, etc., I imagine a big chunk is gone. Don't get me wrong, it's still a great deal of $ but his contract expires this year. Hate to see him get a setback like this. Playing well this year could secure a much better longterm contract.

Believe it or not, there is no rule that NBA players have to blow through their money the way an 8 year old goes through an allowance. If He can't stop working and be perfectly fine for at least three years, then he's an idiot.

You sure about that? I think this may have changed recently. :hihi:
