My take is that he has an 8 figure amount stashed away in hidden assets and this is just another ploy to avoid paying his rightful debts.

AB is notorious for welching on his debts, and not paying his help, contractors, etc. 

 

 

Exactly. Wealthy people don't go broke. They declare bankruptcy all the time and keep their jets and houses. They stash half in the Caymen's or in Switzerland and declate themselves broke to get out of paying debts. Then they do it again in a few years.

Creditors? How the heck does he have creditors? He took an arena football team and ran it into the ground.

He's just the worst. He is reaping the rewards of what he has sown his entire life. It sucks, but it is important for people to feel the full weight of consequences for their actions.

How does anyone spend $100 MM in 15 years? 

Well it starts with him only taking home about 40% of that after taxes and agent/management fees.  Then him thinking he gets all 100 mil of it.   

 

After that though your point is extremely valid.

He pissed away $30 million in guaranteed money in 2019.

Run for president and you can do it in a few months. None of the above!

The thing that will be heartbreaking is if/when they confirm after his passing that his brain turned into mush from CTE

From what I understand, he showed signs of mental illness before the Burfict hit.  I think he's just unstable.

He's been a total *****nut since he was a teenager.

 

Direct quotes from his stepfather:

'A lot of things that Tony's doing, nothing surprises me. I'm surprised that it took them this long to figure him out. Because he’s been this way since he’s been 12 years old..... it was just one thing after another, one thing after another,” Moss said. “He was just a problem kid, man....

Antonio Brown is a fraud, man. He's not a good person."

Ryan Clark talking about the type of person AB has always been, even before the Burfict hit people claim changed him.

To be fair - after agents, managers, taxes and hookers its probably more like $40m lol
