Whats the deal with all the talk recently regarding additional money & cash flow for players of professional sports after they exit their sport whether it be from standard retirement, injury or even death? We are now inundated with griping from ex-NFL guys who feel slighted because they aren't getting 'taken care of' now after years of abuse their bodies endured. There was even a cause for concern about recently deceased Sean Taylor. Obviously a tragic event and incredible loss . . . and he was a millionaire. He had/has a daughter who a fund was set up for . . . my questions is WHY? Where is the personal responsibility? Is it conceivable that the child of a multi-million dollar-earning parent (who has passed) is in danger of financial malnutrition? Seems odd to me. If I were to "go" unexpectedly, my offspring would be taken care of - this is not because I earn millions (hardly), but because you take the standard precautionary measures to assure your 'T's are crossed if something were to happen.
