According to CBS Sports Dallas A former financial adviser for ex-NFL quarterback Vince Young says he arranged a seven-figure loan for Young during the 2011 lockout because the player wanted to throw himself a $300,000 birthday party even though he was running low on funds.
Ronnie Peoples of Raleigh, N.C., said under oath during a videotaped deposition last month he contacted New York-based Pro Player Funding LLC about the loan after being informed that Young had already paid for the party.
The deposition was taken as part of a proceeding in which the former University of Texas star is challenging the validity of a $1.7 million judgment against him. A transcript of the deposition was obtained by The Associated Press.

I’m sure he could have gotten the party for cheaper than $300k but this is Vince Young we’re talking about.
Let this be a lesson to you aspiring athletes out there, be careful with your money and realize that unless you invest in other talents and businesses while playing pro sports, you will probably never make that much money again in your life.
Hopefully Vince Young has a good bankruptcy lawyer so he may be able to keep some assets otherwise he might be the star of Broke pt 2 on ESPN 30 for 30
