Report: LeBron James to Spend $49.5 Million on Coral Gables Home {Fanhouse NBA Blog}
Jul 18th 2010 7:36PM Quick math indicates over half of his 6-year earnings will go towards his new house. In a downturned real estate market this purchase will doubtless bite him in the ass in fewer than 10 years, and that's assuming he remains healthy. Just once I'd like to see a pro athlete living below his/her means (which would still be way above average). It's past time for athlete "role models" to step back to set an example of valuing education, humility and frugality.

Creating a Will, Choosing Guardianship is a Must for Parents {ParentDish}
Mar 26th 2010 6:02PM It's just for this reason we didn't get a will drawn until after the kids were 18. Might have been (but fortunately wasn't) a problem if something had happened to both of us. Bigger problem was arguing about whose sibling would get them. Outliving the situation is a blessing.

What's under your seat, Oprah staffer? A free lavish cruise! {WalletPop}
Jun 24th 2009 1:24PM An expenditure of over 9 million dollars in trips. Surely, she might have thought of a better use for most of this money and still, very generously, presented her staffers with a pre-paid $1000 card.
English-Only Group Can't Spell the Word 'Conference' {Politics Daily}
Jun 24th 2009 12:40PM Several years ago, during a period of unemployment, I was waiting in a line at an unemployment office to get my paperwork verified so I could collect a check. As the line shortened I noticed a relatively small sign on the wall behind the clerks' counter. When I got to the clerk I told her how silly the sign was. She insisted that it was a major problem (without seeing the irony). The sign read (in English) "If you do not speak English, you must provide your own translator"
Obama's Inaugural Address Already Written {Politics Daily}
Oct 27th 2008 12:58AM Ask yourself who's more likely to have an abortion.... the welfare mother with limited prospects or the middle/upper middle-class prospective college graduate. It just may be conservative religious-rightists who are "pro-life" want to prevent their own wives and daughters from electing abortion to preserve their own numbers.
Amanda Beard Posing in Playboy: Bad for Women's Sports? {Fanhouse Olympics Blog}
May 9th 2007 7:04PM Good for her. You can't earn a decent living swimming. There are no graduate degrees in swimming. There are intensely dedicated athletes, both male and female, driven to push themselves to the physical max in pursuit of winning. Most athletic pursuits unfortunately reach a point of diminished return at which performance cannot improve. Getting on with life is a major step for those few athletes who have excelled in their sports. Let her get on with hers.
