Blackburn Rovers forward El Hadji Diouf is one of the latest showing us why fools and their money are soon parted! The 29 year old footballer has Manchester buzzing after showing off his £100k gold-plated Cadillac Escalade. Apparently he is also the proud (if not foolish) owner of a £420,000 chrome Mercedes.

Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not hating on him in the least bit, after all its his money and he is free to do with it as wishes…but I just hope he has a good retirement fund plan. We’ve all seen the countless athletes that live the high life in their prime and then end up on the auction block when the spotlight finds a new target. Besides, why would anyone want that much attention on them-self while they’re going about their business…its like a subliminal shout out to be robbed, kidnapped or otherwise mishandled!

Perhaps while he’s still young, strong and signing cheques with golden ink he might just want to hit up Chris Eubanks for some bankruptcy avoidance tips!
