Re: Why do so many NFL players go bankrupt?

Intelligence is not a measure of "knowledge". So, can people stop using examples of athletes not "knowing" what to do with money as a lack of "intelligence" when it is in fact a case of being ignorant. They may be "slower" in figuring things out and thus are less "intelligent" in that sense, but simply not knowing how to balance a budget is a problem of ignorance.
