Do you honestly think that a 17 or 18 year old being given a few million dollars will actually be responsible with money? Investing it wisely and saving for the future?

Completely agree. I know too many kids (not really athletes) that have too much money. It doesn't really matter how much money you have, if you use $50 as toilet paper, it's going to run out.
Also, like Maleficent said, they can easily play on a college team right?
