The address listed on the lien is for his former home in Malibu, which he sold last year for $2.49 million.” Can’t wait for him to drop a Stunner on the scrawny tax guy who tries to come collect.

Is it just so hard to keep track of all of your money when you are so rich? Can’t these people afford accountants?
/Sidenote: I sent you an amail TBL. If you get a chance to look at it that would be great.

No one told him he could write off all those beers he was using/drink as props back in the day?

I don’t know what an amail is, but I did send you an email.

Dude, wrestlers are like NBA players. They spend it as they get it and when it’s gone it’s gone.

Stone Cold during the Attitude Era was some of the best entertainment TV EVAR.
Is 22K the bottom line because the state of California said so?

What is so funny is that if these guys took half of their paycheck and put it into savings, they would have so much money in retirement that they could do whatever they wanted. Take Antoine Walker for example. He made $99 million throughout his career. had he put half of that into savings he could have still blown $49.5 million over his 10-12 year career and still had another $50 million waiting for him in retirement. Instead he goes to court to dispute a $800,000 gambling debt he rang up. Talk about the true definition of natural checks and balances. He gets all of the talent, and none of the brains.

Austin 22,024 says I just “forgot” to pay my taxes!

WHAT?

I’m splitting hairs here, but Walker actually didn’t make $99M. After taxes and agent fees, he probably made about half. But I totally get your point.

What is the standard percentage an agent gets?

5 percent, plust 30 percent tax at least even with crooked accounting nonsense.
And “what” was great for two weeks and awful for four years.

And that’s the bottom line cause Irwin R Schyster said so!
