Not uncommon for someone making $50,000 and buying a $20,000+ vehicle.

someone buying something like a new accord and financing it for 5 years with a decent down payment, after saving, is not the same thing as a lot of players (not necessarily saying hill falls into this) paying cash for a luxury sports car with an awful resale value that they likely don't even end up keeping for more than a couple years. it's also a lot different when the guy that is making 50k has a 30+ year career ahead of them and the guy you're talking about could be unemployed and without a degree in 3.

Agreed, but you are taking 2 opposite ends of the spectrum in your example.

Well, he is guaranteed $1.6 million. So that is the equivalent of making $50,000 for the next 32 years. Assuming he invests nothing, only gets his guaranteed money and generates zero income outside of a presumed failed football carreer.
