>be a PL footballer>blow all your money >end up working as a builder How does one fuck up this badly?
Seems like he's enjoying life as a Deano with a white van
How do you blow that much money? So quickly? At least spend it on decent shit like properties.
>>142949108Probably gambling
>>142949114Plus drinking and drugs.More generally a lot of athletes don't really understand money and think they paychecks they are getting in the moment will keep coming, so spend the same even when their careers are over.
>>142949108Regression to the mean, same way most (low iq) lottery winners end up back where they started after a few years
>>142949093>Danny drinkwater>Drinks water
>>142949108From what I read on an article: 780k on a failed restaurant and then some more on a failed night club.But he signed a 5 year contract with Chelsea that paid 110.000 a week (gross I guess) so he spent a lot on some other stuff.
probably owns the building firm and pops down some days when he's feeling lonely
>>142949108He unironically got cucked by Covid-19 Or more precisely the lockdowns that his government imposed due to it (his restaurant failed because of it)Many such cases!>Danny Drinkwater's Manchester restaurant, FoodWell, which the footballer opened in 2019, is nearing bankruptcy.>Drinkwater was forced to close the restaurant following the coronavirus pandemic lockdown and the restaurant seemingly never recovered from the crisis.>According to FoodWell's accounts on Companies House, the eaterie has amassed liabilities of £1.7 million and cash reserves of just £8,435.It's basically over
>>142949093Maybe he's building his own house.
>>142949427think that's what I read yeah, they're building his house and he pops in now and again to help out
>>142949410If he had just named the restaurant FoodWater it would have survived. Big missed opportunity.I kind of feel sorry for the players on those great Leicester teams who went on to play for bigger clubs. Can't think of any who maintained great careers after being sold.
>>142949318This, people are idiots
>>142949503Kante but that's about it
>>142949503Probably because most of the squad was old championship tier shittersVardy, Mahrez, Kante and Schmeichel all did fine
>>142949318yep it’s a big larp to taste the life he would have had if not for football, just for a few hours
>>142949211>opening a night club in an era where they're shutting down at record levelsLolUnless you're a gangster wanting to money launder you should not invest
>In April 2019, Drinkwater was charged with drink-driving after crashing his Range Rover into a wall in Mere, Cheshire.
>>142949792>>142949211Hospitality in general is a dogshit place to put your money.
He should have bought apartments and stocks. You don't need to be a genius to invest in retail and buy SPY, JP Morgan and Berkshire Hathaway. he made like half a million dollars per month, he could be living from dividends and rents.
>>142949093could've ended up way worse>pic related
most of pro athletes are literally retard tier when it comes to money/economics/basic maths, they get fucked over by their agents and their relatives and usually end up with some golddigging whores who also fucked them over money wisethen there's alcohol, drugs and prozzies
>>142949133>Plus drinkingIst tap water free in the UK?
>>142949211>From what I read on an article: 780k on a failed restaurant and then some more on a failed night club.Why do retarded celebs try to put their money into a business they have absolutely no clue about?If he put the 780k into a simple VOO S&P500 ETF back in 2019 it'd be worth over 1.7m now
>>142950221it's hard to blame them thoughA lot of people never really learn how to handle money, and when you then come across a lot of it in a short time, it's easy to blow it because you don't know much better, but people around you don't either because you have more money than all of them. They become easy targets.
>>142949093doesn't he own the company, seems pretty based to work with the lads, much better than being a mentally challenged pundit
>>142949792opening a nightclub in this day and age feels like fulfilling a boyhood dream of being a sleazy gangster
>>142950390A night club is the #2 go-to idea for people who want to own a business but have 0 unique skills, knowledge or ideas.The #1 is a restaurant

>>142950245water loicense costs a fortune mate
>>142949108A lot of it is just luxury spending and quite often depreciating assets like cars and watches.
>>142949851Maybe he had to fix the wall and that's how he started his construction business
