    I'm all for getting rich, it's better than most things, without being rich. The can't read is what leads to going broke, again. If you can't read a ledger or contract you are getting robbed. The IRS is hard reading.

      These people on here who support Floyd supported Hillary Clinton and ********s mostly. So they believe in higher taxes and socialist welfare programs, but they don't care that Floyd doesn't want to pay for those programs and delays paying for them so much that he's willing to accrue interest and fees to avoid paying for Black community welfare programs LOL

        Where is the "WORSHIP" in posting why he doesn't read at a High Level? We all get the required education to make a living right? OK well what Education can help you earn that much money?

        I don't know how you turned it into Worship and "Race"? I don't need 800 Million to happy personally but why would I be jealous and envious of someone who have found a way to earn that and that is all most people are especially the ones who constantly poke fun at his education

          what a great role model. Kids don't bother learning to read.

                Just because he made a lot of money doesn't mean that he's some kind of financial mastermind. Are we gonna say that Tyson was some kind of pecuniary mastermind too? He made a lot of money too, until he lost it all. I wouldn't put it past Floyd to squander most of what he's earned, what with the lifestyle he has.

                  Education is about self-respect not about earning-power, you dimwit.

                  You worship a woman-beating scum bag who doesn't pay his taxes which help pay for welfare programs in the Black community?

                  Tell me what you like about Floyd other than him being Black, rich and undefeated in boxing?

                    It's not actually lol I attend a business school (as a JD/MBA) that's pretty much Harvard. The case studies come from all sorts of industries. All it takes is for someone to publish a case study on Mayweather and a professor to use it.

                    For example one of our cases in a strategy course was about a rock band (can't remember the name) that made 100s of millions taking an independent approach to touring, selling merch, and distributing music.

                    Considering Mayweather's outsized financial performance as a boxer (especially without endorsements). It's not far fetched that someone will write up a case study on his career.

                      What actual evidence is out there that backs that Floyd is illiterate? The whole thing started based off something 50 said. I have a hard time believing that someone that's filmed as many promos as Floyd has doesn't have basic reading skills. You have to read off dummy cards during most of those things.
