While you are providing a valuable point in your essay, I would have liked for you to delve a little deeper into the black athlete-entertainer road to poverty. I’m familiar with quite a few athletes and enterainers(well known, I might add). The educational background of these people impacted greatly from the ones who are doing well in their lives, retirement, etc., and the ones who failed financially and morally.

Is very sad story. Not to mention the entertainers who think that paying taxes is jut for their audience and find out the hard way that not the case at all.
