Re: Mark Brunell to file for Bankruptcy

I wonder if any of his real estate investments were near New Orleans...the land is probably worthless and unsellable down there. Jacksonville has been hit harder than most cities in the nation from this economy also, which is no secret...just look at their ticket sales.

I wondered how it happened when I saw the title...he's a good person, not one to have child support issues or a gambling problem like so many other pro athletes. Real estate was a big cash cow for a few years, but it took a violent and sudden downturn...a LOT of people got burned bad.

From the article, it sounds like other members if his investment group couldn't hold up their parts and he tried to cover the entire thing himself for a couple of years...and just couldn't sustain it.

Diversify your investments...don't try to rely on any one source of investment income...if it goes south, you lose everything.
