SHAQ'S FINANCIAL STATS EXPOSED TO THE PUBLIC; BALLER EARNS ABOUT $2 MILLION A MONTH; DOLES OUT $22 G'S ON MONTHLY MAID SERVICE & $1,500 ON CABLE..

WHAT KIND OF DISH NETWORK, COMCAST, DIRECT TV AND/OR ANY OTHER TV CABLE PACKAGE HAS YOU SHELLING OUT $1,500.OO A MONTH?!!! ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU'RE BARELY HOME, IS WHAT I WANT TO KNOW!! But I'll digress....for now.

Everybody knows that Shaquille O'Neal earns is paid $20 million a year by the Miami Heat. But where does all that money go? Thanks to his pending divorce, Shaq's monthly budget is now on the public record. Extra has obtained Shaquille O’Neal’s financial affidavit as part of his divorce files, which reveals he earns a whopping $2 million a month. In the court papers, it states that the basketball star not only spends about $22,000 per month on maid service, he also pays $1,500 per month for cable television and $17,000 per month on clothing. The documents also state that O’Neal spends over $23,000 per month at gas stations (which I can truly understand with today's high gas prices!), $6,730 on laundry and dry cleaning, $2,305 on pet care, $1,620 on music and magazines and $110,000 on monthly vacations? TO THE HELL WHERE?!!

And here's what really puts the lid on the jar: The $114,946 that's listed as "miscellaneous (personal)" -- for us common folk, miscellaneous can be anything from lunch money, feeding the meter, catching a cab, buying groceries, getting your car washed or even pampering yourself--whether it's shopping for a new pair of shoes, treating yourself to a movie or a new DVD, getting mani/pedi once every two weeks...you know...that's how we common folk spend our miscellaneous funds--but for folks like Shaq, I'm willing to bet the backyard (or is it farm?) 'miscellaneous,' could easily mean having a little 'pocket' money to drive up to the Benz dealership and cop a S600 series coupe without having to have to write a check for it. Lucky, wealthy bastard! LOL! It must be nice!
