I feel so sorry for him. I know how it is to be broke and it's not easy. Man...$17 million is just not enough to make it. Maybe he needs to start doing something else to make more money. It takes me $50 million a year just to scrape by and that's paycheck to paycheck. :( My prayers are with you.

No Sympathy

In California they have the foreclosure crisis real bad. They over-inflate the properties worth, so this is why Canseco is moaning. Don't feel sorry for him. I wish I had the problem of having 1 million. He should adjust his standard of living and pay his debt. This guy is not suffering in any way.

there is no personal liability for mortgage debt in California. Why would anyone hold on to their house if they owe more money than it's worth?

People like him endup committing suicide

I feel sorry for him because for many years I try to contact him to give him vocational advice but he is always busy with the wrong person

what about the ethical commitment you made to your lender? i did not know that mortgages were optional - you only pay them if the value increases. this guy is an idiot without any character

Complicated life

Jose, you made this life for yourself. You talked in your interview about your life and finances being complicated. What in the world can be hard about being a multi millionaire. Live like the middle class person on a million dollars and you will have money to give your great grand children. Try living on my Firefighters pay and supporting your family. Not to mention the Fuel prices that effect groceries and utilities, etc, etc. Sounds like to me that you need to get on your knees and pray and ask God to help you!!! I don't think anyone else feels sorry for you. I am a compassionate person but you have to help yourself and stop expecting people to feel sorry for you. Stand up and be a man and get it together. You may be retired from baseball but you aren't too old to get a real job!

Poor guy.... He made his house value in one year. Will take me over 5 years to do mine. Imagine that!!!!!
