NY Post: ‘Meet the Rolex Romeos’
In 2011, I wrote a post titled How to Snag a True Baller. The purpose of my post was to help women separate the fluff from the true ballers by educating herself on what ballers like.
Groupies are a dime a dozen, but it takes a certain type of woman to marry up.
Knowledge is what separates groupies from women who snag True Ballers
The NY Post published an article about well-heeled New York men who set themselves apart from the rest by showcasing their refined tastes on their wrists.
But not all successful men want to get married. Some want to play the field, so it pays to know the game.
Newly divorced Manhattan surgeon Robert Huang flashes a $80,000 Rolex during his interview with the NY Post.
“Women want to see a man as being successful and, along with upscale clothes and shoes, a good watch is an established symbol of success,” says Huang, who is seeking a “younger woman for companionship, not marriage.”
“They want a man who can give them security and it highlights the fact you’re that type of guy.”
Ochocinco is not broke
Unemployed NFL player Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson is far from broke. The out of work reality TV star detailed his current financial situation in court documents filed as part of his ongoing child support case in Miami.
Johnson has a spotty employment history. His professional problems stem from his inability to control his big mouth, rather than his skills on the field.
Johnson, 34, was waived by the Cincinnati Bengals in 2011 — after spending 10 years with the ball club. Then the Patriots showed him the door after acquiring him in July 2011. Earlier this year, the Miami Dolphins took a chance on Johnson after the Pats cut him loose.
But the Dolphins quickly realized their mistake and gave him the boot one day after he was arrested for going off-script and head-butting his “wife” Evelyn Lozada.
Mystery Powerball ‘winner’ located — at work
The possible 2nd Powerball jackpot ticket holder seen celebrating on a Maryland gas station video has been located.
Just one day after his celebration was captured on the gas station cameras — and shown on news programs all over the country — the man was back at work for the Virginia DOT, where a reporter attempted to interview him.
Surveillance Video Captures Possible Powerball Winner
A military vet may be the winner of one half of the $587 million Powerball jackpot. Two winning tickets were sold in Missouri and Arizona, according to Lottery officials. As of this morning, only one winner has come forward — a husband and wife from Dearborn, MO. The other possible winner may have been captured on a convenience store camera at the moment he realized he won.
Former NFL star ordered to pay $75K to former reality show star
3 years ago, when former NFL player Bob Whitfield still owned his Atlanta recording studio, his ex-wife Sheree Whitfield had her hand out for more cash after she ran through the $900K lump sum he had already given her to support their 2 children Kairo and Kaleigh.
At the time, Sheree was starring in ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ and she had a fake baller image to uphold.
It’s now 3 years later and Whitfield, who lives in California, is crying broke despite receiving a very generous retirement check from the NFL every month.
Twitter #FAIL: Wyclef Jean, Chris Brown
Musician and con artist Wyclef Jean thinks he isn’t getting enough of the right kind of attention. So he tweeted this pic of his birthday present to himself, a brand new Ducati motorcycle. Jean recently turned 43, just a month after he shut down his Yele Haiti foundation — after misappropriating $16 million in donations for victims of the 2010 Haiti earthquake. Of course we tried to warn donors that Jean is shady, but no one listened. The NY Times wrote an article detailing Jean’s massive con scheme to line his own pockets. Diaoly Estimé, who runs an orphanage in Haiti, told reporters, “If I had depended on Yéle, these kids would all be dead by now.”
Poker Pro Wins $11.7 Million – But Casino Refuses to Pay Up
Black high stakes poker professional Phil Ivey hit the jackpot at a recent London poker tournament — but the casino that hosted the tournament refuses to pay Ivey his money.
Ivey, 36, who is far from broke, recently put his Las Vegas mansion on the market for $1.9 million after divorcing his wife. His neighbors were the late Michael Jackson and his disgraced doctor Conrad Murray.
