Uh, one person is jobless likes to spend a lot of money and is divorced. The other has a job and is still married. Remind me again who you’d rather be?
"From a financial standpoint". KO is likely worth at least $3M (and I'm being very conservative - it's proly 3x that) and if he wants to could likely have a 15+ year career as an NBA assistant and maybe get a chance as a head coach. He may have spent a lot of money but assuming he did it's relative to his earnings and you have no idea what he currently spends.
The NPV of his NBA pension is at least $20M (I have no idea how the players association runs the pension plan so again I'm being conservative).
And yes, he's not working now b/c he has multiple reasons not to.
