You didn't answer the question. How much can you make and still complain about your job?
Ahhh youve outsmarted me again man. i cannot answer that as i do not consider a game a job....especially when ur making millions

Whatever the argument is, money shouldn't matter. There's no set amount that says you can no longer complain about your job. Bledsoe doesn't seem to care about the money, he wants to win and he wants a competent organization.

McDonough said he called Bledsoe on the phone to inquire about the veteran guard's tweet Sunday, when he posted "I Don't wanna be here" hours before the Suns fired Earl Watson.

"He said he was at a hair salon," McDonough told reporters. "It wasn't about the Suns or anything related to the Suns. He said he was at a hair salon with his girl and that he didn't wanna be there anymore.

"I don't believe that to be true. We thought about it and talked about it with [owner] Robert [Sarver] and my staff and Coach Triano and his staff and decided it's what's best for the organization."


DOH...don't push send

He wants to win. Dude’s not happy and wants to play somewhere else. Nothing wrong with that. Money does not mean **** if you’re not happy. Side note: If Watson really wanted to throw down with Bledsoe, he’s dumb.

Dude doesn't know how lucky he is. He's making millions playing a game and he complains. Wah
Being in a position where one gets paid well to win doesn’t remove the competitive nature of an athlete, or it shouldn’t. He wasn’t whining about his life, and he likely came from less than you.
You, regardless of what you do, likely are better positioned in life than at least 95% of people on this planet: ever wish for a change of scenery?
I get the ungratefully rich athlete view. I think he wants to win, which is ok by me.

This. I know many end up being bankrupt/ out of money but it’s not “85-90% / vast majority “ like so many claim. I’m not sure how that myth got so perpetuated
I'd say there are some that go broke, but the average player isn't going out and buying lambos and ferraris. I bet Devin booker still buys Tyler ulis dinner and I'm sure Tyler is living a pretty nice life.

USA Today did a story about 15-20 years ago I read where happiness was the number one thing people valued in a job. Money was second.
