: Remember a year ago when MediaTakeOut.com EXCLUSIVELY told you that NBA star Allen Iverson was BROKE . . . and that he blew through his $200 MILLION fortune. (Here is the original story). Well some of y'all ain't believe us.
Now the MAINSTREAM press is recognizing that Allen has financial problems. And he's now gone to selling some of his possessions ON EBAY . . . to make ends meet.
Oh how the mighty have fallen . . .

Man, I was looking for house, car, land and furniture, jerseys and autographs does not really spell terribly broke but could be a sign of bad things to come. Like most say, no sympathy here, and oh how the mighty of the nigros will continue to fall thinking money spent on materials things and Beckys gonna last forever.
So, he's selling crap on EBay. How does that make him broke? There are a lot of celebs that sell ish on eBay(Oprah, Kim K., Miley Cyrus etc. . . )they are not broke. . . . so MTO stop fishing for ish damn. Do y'all ever publish anything positive??? And I don't mean positive than smart azz remakes in bubbles.
Bullshit right here- One of A.I's homies Ki runs that on Ebay- He makes all the money from what sells on Ebay, not A.I. And this [EXPLETIVE] ain't new- He's been selling A.I's stuff on Ebay for years. And he's also wit A.I in Turkey right now- Its A.I, his manager Gary Moore and Ki who made the trip over to Turkey. MTO get yo [EXPLETIVE] together.
I saw AI about a month ago pacing in front of the cellphone store cursing real loud on the phone. He looked pretty busted, too. Had on some dingy gym shorts and an oversized t-shirt with his hat to the back. I mistook him for a common street hood but when I got closer realized it was AI. He used to be a legend. Black people, we gotta DO BETTER!
Selling this stuff on EBAY doesn't necessarily prove he is broke. Maybe he just doesn't have any attachment those things and he knows they would be appreciated by his fans. When you make millions of dollars you accumulate a lot of stuff over the years and if you don't get rid of stuff you can become a hoarder so it looks to me like he needs to sell even "MORE" stuff. Five hundred dollars here or a thousand there is not really gonna change anything for him one way or the other. Ya Think? 4u2
I still find him sexy as hell. My rich Doctor neighbor recently filed for bankruptcy, George Bush and the Republicans did a thorough job at screwing up the economy. Thank God for Pres. Obama, we are coming back. The Black President remains better than the rest.
Bloomberg news
Companies in the U.S. boosted payrolls more than forecast in November, propelled by increased hiring at small businesses, data from a private report showed today.
Employment increased by 93,000, the most since November 2007, after a revised 82,000 rise in October that was almost double the initial estimate, according to figures from ADP Employer Services. The median projection of 40 economists surveyed by Bloomberg News called for a 70,000 gain last month. Small firms added more workers than at any time since the recession began in December 2007.
if he was smart he would have made some of his own investments instead of living off of endorsements, it takes money to make money, there were rumors that his accountant may have done some shady sh*t, sounds to familiar, happened to red foxx, mc hammer and many others, go back to school, and learn how to handle your own money ASAP!!!!
Mediatakeout you guys are hit and miss most of the time and this is a Huge MISS. A.I. is not even selling this stuff. His friend Kiam is selling it. Meaning why would i just give my friend money when i can just sign some stuff and he can get his own.You guys are just stupid.I bought some stuff from kiam on ebay like 3 years ago when A.I. was making 20 plus million. I guess he was broke then too huh? No wonder i read TMZ instad of you BUMS
This is simply a garage sell. When stuff accumulates, it can become JUNK that everyone needs to get rid of. Selling off shoes from a pile of collected shoes does not dictate that Iverson is broke. He could have easily given them away for the little amount that these items are going for on Ebay. I don't believe Iverson is still wealthy. However, he is not completely broke by any means. If he downsizes to less than a $500k home, have just a couple of vehicles less than $80k each and live within his means, he would be able to sustain for the rest of his life on a budget.
I don't believe this. Dude was never in any major legal problems & he don't have a gang of baby mamas, but I do know that he gambled a lot but if he gambled & lost the kind of money he'd have to lose to be broke after 200 mil we'd of heard about that by now from some casino. I don't think that he's broke, he's probably just getting rid of some of the thousands of pounds of NBA sh@t that he doesn't need anymore.
Yall Dumb as [EXPLETIVE]!!...Every athlete sells autographed jerseys and shoes on Ebay...When He starts selling Houses and Jewelry, and Downsizing His Lifestyle, then You know He's Break...He still owns his MVP Trophies, Rookie of the Year trophy, All NBA Trophies, and His NBA Finals, and ALL-STAR Game Jerseys...Dude Is Not Broke...STOP THE FOOLERY
He Needs Him A White Woman. They Are Financially Incline To Make Better Financial Decisions. His Current Black Woman Is No Assistance To Him. She Is The Primary Reason Why He Is Broke. I Refuse To Date Black Women. In My Profession Women Are Thrown At Me On A Daily Basis. I Have To Step On The Hands Of Those With Color. I Can't Take Black Women Anymore. I Feel More Comfortable Around Whites.
From Yours Truly:
@ Christie That Needs Love
I am Not Miserable At All. I Come On Here Because I Love Reading About Other Celebs. Also To Make Sure My Name Is In The Clear. So As The Black Woman That You Are How About Taking Care Of Those Crying Kids You Have Neglected In The Background And Leave These Subjects To Adults. I Love White Women. I'm Just Saying.
From Yours Truly:
He is the walking PSA on never bowing for any moment greater than himself;fearful that he would break..I bet he wishes he went to Practice now Practice,Practice not the game Practice,What am I talking about?" Practice,Practice,we're having a conversation about Practice,Practice...TRUST & BELIEVE I have no Pity for A.I. for he was the harbinger of his own fate signed sealed and delivered.True Talk.Brooklyn Lives-Stillmatic.

@YeahThatsRiteIsaidIt.. You said what? Because from what I read... You didn't say [EXPLETIVE] So Shut The [EXPLETIVE] Up you Following_Ass Flunky! You're too late boo boo, others who come on this site just to talk a bunch of [EXPLETIVE] because they feel safe behind the computer, have already be rewarded the Ignorance of the Year award for the men vs women title.. White vs black title.. & of course who could forget the Young & old title(my favorite!).. So ummm try back in 2011.. K Pumpkin?.. Oh that comment also applies to @The_Proverbial_Hater... Nut.. Snapping off & acting crazy For No Damn Reason.
Ive read on ESPN he has Gambling and Drinking issues. Ive been around ppl with Gambling issues and that's no joke ppl will use there rent money so i wouldn't be surprised if he blew alot of that 200mill on Gambling and drinking because most ppl who have money and get drunk or free with there money just buying sh!t for everybody and not watching with there spending when there intoxicated now as far as the eBay thing seems to me that has nothing to do with his finical problems the prices are to low for the items.
@rayne30 I agree wit chu, man my [EXPLETIVE] aint broke he just like ta sell [EXPLETIVE] on ebay! i mean look at his seller feedback(the little purple star with 601 next to it) that means he's been selling on ebay for a long while and he's a power seller and that's how many people have left feedback for transactions! this obviously is nothing new, trust me coming from an ebay seller, it takes a while or a shiit load o' transactions to reach 601 positive feedbacks!
