Say what you will about athletes like Jerry Rice and Emmitt Smith, who hang on to their careers for too long and are too afraid to be away from the spotlight to retire, but at least they don't usually run out of money.

As opposed to say, tennis legend Bjorn Borg, who retired at the age of 27 and now appears to be out of money. Borg is selling two rackets and the five trophies he won for being champion at Wimbledon.

Honestly, it's the saddest thing we've seen happen to a former tennis start since Richie Tenenbaum.
