Cool. Not a big surprise. Take a person who is focused on playing sports, sports, sports, training, sports, and oh yea, training who also is poor, and shove money in their face the thing they will do is buy everything they could.

The problem is that most people didn't get the necessary financial education.

The bigger problem is that I doubt these people are very good at math and financial management so they probably ignored the warnings of "I need x dollars per year to sustain this life style, if I get fired tomorrow due to uncontrollable circumstances I am fucked". In the end lots of money needs investing. This is a problem for the middle class and even bigger for the upper.
