Tyson burned through $400 million with some of the most reckless spending you could imagine.

He bought houses he never lived in, cars he never drove. He would get phone calls from the police after members of his entourage were pulled over driving cars he forgot he even bought.

If he wanted to show off he’d take someone to a BMW or Mercedes dealer and buy all the cars in their showroom.

Once he picked up a jacket and found tens of thousands of dollars he had forgotten about in the pockets.

People he didn’t know were living in his mansions and helping themselves to his stuff.

Exotic animals and expensive jewelry, clothes, limos, hookers, drugs and countless gifts for friends. He would even buy strangers Rolex watches if they complemented him in the street.

On top of all this, he got ripped off badly by Don King and gold-digger Robin Givens.

If you want to read about all this and more I recommend his autobiography.
