Walking Away From $13 Million Dollars
03/21/2016


Hi Dr. Laura,

In case you haven't heard the story, major league baseball player Adam LaRoche unexpectedly announced his immediate retirement from baseball this week. 

His sudden retirement came about because his employer, The Chicago White Sox, reneged on their agreement to allow LaRoche's 14-year old son to accompany him to practices and games. By retiring, LaRoche walked away from the $13M he would have earned by playing this coming season. 

Now, I am NOT a White Sox fan, but this man is one hell of a Dad!

From fellow dedicated Dad,
