Saw that yesterday.  That was a fantastic read.  Should be required reading for all rookies.

We hear so much about the sorry cases...guys who end up broke, broken, and worse.  It's nice to see a number of guys that are not just doing well for themselves, but doing well for others.  Guys who really changed their own lives, and the lives of those around them.  Sometimes I feel like there are so many stories of guys being broke after the game that it becomes a foregone conclusion to some of these guys, encouraging a live fast-die hard mentality.  As in, "this isn't going to last, so I need to enjoy it now."

Good to see how some guys did hold their money, and what that means to their lifestyle and options.  Not too many examples of "I kept most of my money and saved it wisely so I still have it today.  And I'm also on crack and living in my car and am estranged from my family."  It would go a long way to show the aspirational results, not just the cautionary results.
