Scottie Pippen Is Broke and Trying to Comeback To The NBA

Posted by Brian

Scottie Pippen

This story makes my stomach hurt! During All-Star weekend, Scottie Pippen hinted that he wanted to make a comback to the NBA. There was a lot of speculation, but the true answer surfaced on Friday. Pippen is being sued by U.S. Bank for $5.021 million due to principal, interest and attorney fees from a dispute over a private jet and company Pippen once owned.

Here is Pippen’s Response:

“the charter-plane issue is one of many poor business decisions that were made primarily by a former agent, whom he blames for causing him to lose about $27 million in bad investments and questionable accounting.”

I could even go there with him because there are a lot of stories of players getting duped by con men who pose as agents. But a little further research into Pippen’s salary history(not including endorsements, playoff winnings, and other appearance incomes), Pippen should not be broke.

1988  $725,000

1989  $575,000

1990  $670,000

1991 $765,000

1992  $2,770,000

1993  $3,425,000

1994  $3,075,000

1995  $2,225,000

1996  $2,925,000

1997  $2,250,000

1998  $2,775,000

1999  $11,000,000

2000  $14,795,642

2001  $13,750,000

2002  $18,083,564

2003  $19,727,524
2004  $4,917,000

2005 $5,408,700

Career (may be incomplete) $109,862,430

He made almost $110 million from salary alone. I would easily say he made another 20-30 million from Endorsements. That is more than one deal gone bad…..that is a lot of fucks ups.

Now we have to see him embarass himself trying to chase Lebron and Melo around. Being a Chicago Native, this is a damn shame!

    Screw him, he should be laughed at. I don’t feel sorry for him because he was stupid enough to blow somewhere in the neighborhood of 150 million dollars. You bet he needs help. Mental help.

    This is a shame. He let over $100 million slip through his hand.

    [...] became the way to solve everything from the auto industry to the housing industry to a broke Scottie Pippen. Their new releases didn’t exactly exude “new” and “fresh,” and [...]

    F@ck him, he never tipped! every one that used to serve him in Chicago called him “no tippin pippin” I guess what comes around goes around!

    Oh yeah and in case you were wondering what that smell was in your silver Mercedes? Our valet crew used to piss in your trunk because you didn’t tip! you remember them you once called them “white bitches”.

    This is Scottie Pippen and all I have to say is, the joke is on you I liked the piss smell in my benz!

    You go, Pip! The very idea of someone peeing in client’s car. You didn’t deserve a tip. Try giving service over and above. Besides, did you ever think that the man might have believed that you should be paid a fair wage for your service? Why should you be dependent upon the generosity of others? If you work – you should be PAID!

    Ok, so he did earn $110 million for playing ball, but agents certainly get a cut off the top (15%), so that leaves him with $90 million. Now, the federal government comes in and takes a good 40%, so you’re to $54 million. Of course, the state grabs boat loads of money too, and add in all the property taxes, big homes, sales tax. It’s just about the amount he lost in business ventures — which makes him BROKE AS A JOKE! Get a real job, Pippen — work will do you good and next time you come across a big pay day you will respect what you have a little more. Just sayin………

    Boooooo Hoooooooo. Maybe now that your broke, you may finally understand all those people you decided not to tip! A private jet? Come on Scottie, where you goin’, and did anyone mention how much fuel costs, and mechanics cost, and pilots cost when you bought that plane?

    Scotties nothing but another dumb nigga just loving to throw his money back to whitey, except he’s really just throwin’ his money back to Arabs and Koreans, cause the white man has forfeited his stake in everything due to white guilt. Scotties next gig will be him asking “would you like paper, or plastic” . See you on skid row, dumbass.
