jesus fucking christ..... how hard is it to live within your means when:

He has earned $52.9 million in his 11-year career
Seriously.

I did the maths. 350k now would set me to the point where I could retire comfortably in 5 years.

How the fuck do you blow through 53mill AND HAVE DEBT?

Sorry for the delay, my friend, I was in transit on the ferry as today was my first day at my new job and I had to pick up my company laptop and do a little onboarding - Below are the juicy parts of the story...

It’s unclear how the 29-year-old Kane, who has earned $52.9 million in team pay during his 11-year career, according to capfriendly.com, lost his money, but there are a few clues in the petition. Last year, The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas settled a lawsuit against Kane for unpaid gambling bills. According to the Chapter 7 petition, in the last 12 months, he lost $1.5 million gambling.

The petition also listed seven dependents, all as living with him: his 6-month-old daughter, his sister, 27, his uncle, 54, his mother, 55, another uncle, 59, his father, 60, and his grandmother, 77.

What could lead to $26.8 million of debt was not spelled out in the petition for Chapter 7, a process which protects individuals or companies from creditors and provides for liquidation of certain assets to pay debts. Kane listed 47 creditors, ranging from a host of individuals to banks like Centennial and Scotiabank, to his former agency Newport.

The petition also disclosed he has a claim against Sure Sports, the loan broker that arranged the Centennial credit. “Claims against Leon McKenzie and Sure Sports LLC related to business advice and obtaining loans for Debtor,” the petition noted, referring to the CEO of the loan broker. “This includes violation of the Florida Broker’s Act, Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practice, Fraud, Breach of Fiduciary Duty.”

Oof

:L
holy fuck evander, grow the fuck up.


In April, U.S. media reported the Cosmopolitan hotel in Las Vegas had dropped a lawsuit against Kane for allegedly failing to repay $500,000 in casino markers. Kane reportedly ran up a tab when the Sharks were playing the Golden Knights in Las Vegas during the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs in 2019.

I'm not sure how Theo Fleury is doing these days (although you can get a pretty good idea by reading his twitter feed), but he blew through his NHL career earnings in short order. I kinda give Theo a pass though due to the abuse he suffered at the hands of Graham James, in Theo's case, it was more alcohol and drugs as a coping mechanism which is quite understandable.

Alcoholism ran pretty rampant in Theo's family as well.
though I'm sure the graham james thing didn't help

I hated him so badly during his playing days I couldn't bring myself to read the book or watch the show.


My dad grew up with his dad and uncle way way way back in the day.
