Have you ever noticed that certain celebs and sports figure spend money recklessly, and then one day when that cash is gone they try to blame others for their lack of discipline?
That might be the case with Denver Nuggets star Carmelo Anthony, who is suing his former business manager for $2 million in lost assets.
Anthony filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Sacramento, California on Monday claiming that Larry W. Harmon, and employees of Larry Harmon & Associates “breached their fiduciary duties” by transferring $1.75 mil out of his account, into an account owned by Harmon.
“It is reprehensible that professional athletes are so often victimized,” said ‘Melo’s attorney Robert W. Hirsh, who is seeking the approximately $2 million in lost assets plus punitive damages. Actually, it makes complete sense why professional athletes are so often victimized.
This couldn’t happen if Anthony was paying attention to the cash flowing in and out of his bank accounts. How do you not notice that $1.75 million is missing? It seems rappers and NBA players are ripe for the picking by anyone from jumpoffs to accountants, and even attorneys, because professional athletes are not exactly rocket scientists. Why do you think they spawn so many illegitimate babies?
Melo should be suing himself for being stupid.
