Didn't is say that the baseball player only received $800 dollars a month living expenses. Think about it. Could you live off $800 a month. I know I can't. even if I stayed in a state park. Sorry just...
The $2,000,000 sign-on bonus that Norris received should conservatively make about $8,000 a month. So, his nest egg is still growing even with the small allowance. He'll most likely have a lot of future income if no injuries.
He's a smart guy, you don't know what the future will bring so don't blow it!
