To the OP, the killing part about it is when these stupid fricks look to see what time it is, they will check their fricking cell phone.

Most of us are responding with some wisdom under our belts. No telling what the hell we would spend our money on at that age. I am sure we would hope we would use more common sense, but I am positive I would have gone on at least a small spending spree right out of the gate.

I would spend some money too. But that 123K would have gotten me:

A truck
bass boat
4 wheeler
membership to a premium hunting club in S. Alabama
all kinds of new firearms and ammo
Amen

True. I suppose most 20 somethings think they will live forever and opportunity is endless. Kinda like what Rocky said, if I was 25 and had 2 million in a bank account...

Very, very , very rarely is the reference Rhodes scholar and college athlete mentioned.


While I cheer for these guys on Saturday - there's is a very, very small percentage of them (from any team) I'd hire for anything other than a Public Relations face.

Most of these clowns, outside of being "entertainers" are worthless for anything other than yard work.
