Errol Spence splashes £330,000 on diamond chain

[nacho daddy]

Everytime a black fighter buys something expensive we get the same threads made about them going broke.

you mean like Adrian Peterson who made over 100 million and is now broke?

It absolutely boggles the mind of the white man and makes him very angry and frustrated that a black man (a young black man at that) is doing infinitely better than him and his entire family in a country designed for the white man.

Beating them at their own game.

what you described is the sign of a sick society where idiotic athletes are worshipped like gods. The Romans were very smart the top star athletes then were the gladiators who were locked back in cages after the bouts not allowed to roam the streets. my garbage man is worth more to me then a ****** ball player / athlete that can barely read. so is the kid that stocks shelves in the market and the truck driver that brings it there. . I bet anything you feel proud of the bros that are rich narcos

And athletes wonder why they go broke.

It's diamonds and gold folks. Long term, it appreciates not depreciates. The diamonds can be removed from their settings and the gold can be melted. 50 years from now, even going thru such a process, Errol will make money if he has to part with it.

But, think whatever makes it more palatable to you.

That isn't 300k worth of gold and diamonds. The raw material value is significantly less.

In this thread, no one has EVER purchased something they didn't need...

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

Ehhh not my style but obviously his so more power to em. Worse come to worse he can sell that back for like 20-30 grand lol.

Money is just a medium of exchange.
People like to have something tangible to show for their work.
The necklace represents countless hours in the gym and if makes Spence feel good, what's the problem?

Hopefully he is banking or investing the majority of his earnings. This is his money and if he wants to spend some of it on toys who cares. I know guys his age that are up to their eyeballs in debt. They are working just to make their payments on their new truck, snow machine and motorcycle. So if he's not blowing all his money then go and enjoy life.

I honestly don't get it at all, but his money and his right to do w/e he wants with it especially with another huge payday incoming

They say when you drive off the car lot your car just lost like 50% of its value or something wild like that.

I wonder how much value a personalized chain loses when you walk outta the ***elry?

that thing is worth its weight in stones and gold. which is a hell of a lot less than he paid for it. you're allowing somebody to mark up the stones and the gold, and paying for labor.

50% might be a stretch, but who knows. taking out the diamonds would be a major *****, probably a ton of labor just to piece it apart. yeah. pathetic. scary to think that he's spending money like this. he's not going to be as successful at 154 lbs.
