Along with his boxing career, a few extracurricular endeavours could help Mike's wallet...

1. Make a Tyson reality show of him training and stuff
2. Make some appearances on the WWE (he's made some previously when it was called WWF and I think he made $2 million for some easy work)
3. Mike Tyson Talk Show: sounds odd, but whatever theme they choose from a jerry springer type show to an oprah type show, if Tyson is the host it would be wildly entertaining
4. Market a line of Mike Tyson granola bars called "Tyson Chewables". This would be Mike's version of the george foreman grill and should bring in a hefty amount of money

This could rake in millions of dollars for Iron Mike and take him out of debt. Of course, he would have to change his spending habits or he'd just go right into debt again.

are you on crack, as much as i like Tyson those idea's suck.

heres a good plan, fight and keep winning, that would make him millions

There is no way Tyson can be as poor as he claims. With the connections he has there are ways for him to easily make huge amounts of the money without the IRS knowing about it. Then Tyson leaves the United States and goes to France where the IRS cant hurt him after he retires.

i read this article it said " Tyson may be broke but last week he was able to gather up 420,000 to put a down payment on a 2.1 million dollar house"

damn I wish i was that broke

1 and 5 sound like good ideas.. but instead of granola bars, I think protein bars / nutrition, etc.. would be a better idea

Yeah, and they should be shaped like ears

LOL....... Just joking, but I would be more likely to buy them if they were shaped like ears.

What about economic plans to save us?

Hell, I could use a few extra bucks. Please donate to my paypal account. (link will be up soon)

On to the topic at hand...
Tyson was actually offered to do some more WWF appearances after that PR stunt with Steve Austin and after he appeared as a guest referee on a WWF PPV. He turned them down eventually. If he were to become a WWF regular back then, he would have had a pretty handsome salary, but it just won't work these. WWE wouldn't take him now anyway.
