STORY
Bobby Bonilla will collect $1,193,248.20 from the New York Mets on July 1st. This started in 2011 and doesn't end until 2035. The odd part of the arrangement is he hasn't played the game in over 20 years. The Mets owed Bobby around $5.9 million in 2000. Instead of getting paid all at once, Bobby agreed to let the Mets defer payment with 8% interest and spread it across a 25-year period. The Mets ended up investing the $5.9 million with Bernie Madoff believing that outsized returns were coming their way. The $5.9 million balance ballooned to $29.8 million and so on July 1st we celebrate Bobby Bonilla for his disciplined financial decision which has yielded a return that even current Mets owner, Steve Cohen, insists on celebrating.
