Mark Brunell has a lot in common with Dermontti Dawson.
Dermontti Dawson, longtime center for the Pittsburgh Steelers, filed for bankruptcy this week with liabilities of nearly $70 million.
His debts are primarily business related Jennifer Hewlett of the Lexington Herald-Leader.
“Unfortunately, my personal guaranty exposure on the debts of numerous real estate interests has led to the Chapter 7 filing,” Dawson said on Thursday. “Today’s real estate market and economic conditions, plus the fact that I own non-controlling minority interests in the entities which own the real estate, left me with limited options. I certainly wish things had turned out differently and look forward to continuing my contributions to this community.”
On his bankruptcy filing, Dawson listed his monthly income as $17,972 with his monthly expenses totaling $19,635.
Among the assets listed, Dawson has a $4,250 Rolex watch, a $2,650 golf cart and a $10 interest in a mixed breed dog that belongs to his daughter.
Mark Brunell is going through the same thing.
