Sad that some people are this stupid, to blow through those amounts of money. I hope he manages to get out of his funk.

Over his NBA career, Iverson made over $154.5 million in salary. The 39-year-old also racked up quite a bit of income in endorsements, bringing his income to over $200 million.
While in the middle of a financial bind, Iverson purchased an elaborate mansion, but lost the property to foreclosure less than a year later. It is believed that he is now homeless and bounces around from home to home.

Wow, but what disturbs me is that this doesn't surprise me--this isn't the exception, it's the rule.

I don't know where the guy is or how he's doing. But man could he play. Pound for pound, the best I've ever seen.

Wasn't that Spreewell? Though Iverson did say he couldn't even afford a cheeseburger recently.
