Torre that ran in SPORTS ILLUSTRATED's 3/23/09 issue called "How (and Why) Athletes Go Broke". I have heard about this happening to many very successful sportsmen and women over the years--including Pippen--but always asked myself "How the HELL can anyone making that much money end up with nothing or worse than nothing?" I don't ask that question anymore thanks to Torre's work. If you want horrifying, clearcut analysis, read that story. There is an article by Pablo S.
