These 22 athletes collectively lost over a billion dollars.

Most common reasons for losing their life savings?

1. Failed investments and failed businesses.

2. Jail time during prime earning years.

3. Alimony and child support. (One had 9 kids by 9 mothers!)

4. Living large -- and way out of their means.

5. Fraud / bad financial advice.

Doesn't matter how much they made -- even the one who made $400 million pretty much lost it all.
