why didnt he buy a bungalow, who needs stairs in his condition?
-
I hope he's not going full "Flex Wheeler" on us. I have begun to feel sorry for him and I really hope he doesn't go down the same road as Wheeler.
-
Looks peacefull.
-
Can he walk without assistive devices?
-
Ronnie was more successful in BB - Jay was so much more successful in life... :-\

Can he walk without assistive devices?
No, not right now. Around 10:30 in the video, he explains he uses the pool for exercise. He needs the chair for long trips around the house and town, crutches for short trips. He wants to learn how to walk again, and they figure it might take 2 years of exercise. Apparently he has a lot of small muscle and stabilizer atrophy.
He come across extra likeable in this. I think he's ok for money. Not balling, but ok. The main expenses seem to be the house he traded up for, a new car every few years, and whatever the wife spends. There's also child care and medical, but who knows on that.

I’ve met Ronnie few times and he was always super nice and approachable . In 2010 he did guest posing and seminar in Europe and I was promoter’s connection to bring Ronnie over .We’ve met at the ASC in Ohio to sort things out /deposit,flight etc/ . Ronnie invited me to his hotel room ,introduce me to his mom and we talk for good 15 minutes .As you see him on videos that’s how he is in the real life .Super chill guy .And on top of it he may have tons of kids ,but he is not your typical Tyrone or Dermaine ,Ronnie takes care of his kids.

His choice in cars, clothes, shoes , so cringeworthy. Like the typical Hebrew nfl or nba player
Old school Jay with the Landcruiser was much better

At least he doesn't wear his rap cap twisted to the side anymore.

Jay tries too hard, Ronnie is more authentic

I agree, but the diesel Suburban is nice and a good replacement for the LC.
-
Ronnie is a very likeable person.
Hope he can get back to walking.

I wonder how Ronnie’s health is doing besides the walking part? Like bloodwork and organs. Think of all the bodybuilders that died at a young age and here he is still rockin out
-
He's a likeable man - always happy & positive 😊👊🏻
-
I'm surprised he can afford a house.

Must've made a around 8-million from Olympia wins
let alone endorsements & supplements & any other business's

Maybe from endorsements but not from contest wins. Olympia winners don't make a million dollars for a win.

Just a couple of years ago he seemed to be making some kind of progress but more recent videos are hard to watch.
-

He says in a year or so of intense therapy he might.
WoooSHHHHHHHHHh yip yip
-
He doesn't have the Rolls or Bentley anymore? (whichever one he had)
-

Ronnie stayed in the same 150k house in Arlington for 30 years. He had a car here and there but nothing like Jay, Flex, and Heath. BSN was 500k. Didn't they contract him for 1 Million another year? Other endorsements, appearances, and his supplement line made a few bucks in Europe. Nice house but it can't be any more than 600k in Arlington. Lastly, his baby's momma never took him to court for child support, and the Lebanese ex didn't take him to the cleaners for 50%.
Good Ole Ronnie! Yeah, Buddy!

From all the associated sponsorships & whatever weider was paying him.

Somehow I knew it would have steps. I remember when Ronnie was on Rogan and told him that he kept going to the same hack doctor over and over for surgeries. The look on Rogan's face said it all "this guy is a total idiot".

Hi Ronnie!
-

It was repossessed.
-
Would you let Ronnie do your income taxes?
-

Bentley's gone, Hummer's gone, and Charger.
Said he went through them, and got rid of the ones he didn't drive. The Bentley had 3000ish miles on it in about five years, the other 2 were under 10,000 each. He said he's sticking with Escalades, they fit him physically, and he just likes them. I forget if he went straight cash or trade value on the other cars.
For those wondering, the new house was right around $1 million. I think the old one might've appreciated to a little more than that, I remember someone posted the listing years ago.
-
the fact it has stairs clearly demonstrates his wife picked it
-
Ronnie didn't make that much money directly from winning the Olympia. The 1st place prize money in every year of his wins was $110,000 except for the last two which were $120,000 and $150,000.
-

I thought he won that at the ASC??
-
It was repossessed.
How do you know this? I figured he sold it because he could not get in and out of it like a SUV.
-
Just watched the video....I gotta` say that Ronnie is cooler than a cucumber in a snowbank!!
Seems like a real good dude.

Thing is, considering it is in regards to BBers, it was instantly believable. They are the only group to mismanage their money to such a degree. Basketball players a close second.

Yes, athletes in general are terrible with money. They think the gravy train will never stop.
