Footballers who lose it all

Ex Villa Lee Hendrie who has tried to take his own life twice discusses his bankruptcy. Should we feel sorry for them considering how much money they make? I think there is still a heap of pressure and stress as a pro footballer that some people just can't take.

Maybe we can feel sorry for people who try to take their own lives, but footballers don't deserve any extra sympathy compared to anyone else who tries to take their own lives.

Losing their money is anyway not really football related, it's about bad investments or spending it on ferraris and hookers, or gambling addictions etc. Basically the same problems that anyone else has, should they be fortunate enough to earn that amount of money.

Pressure and stress of what? Winning matches? Doesn't really compare to say the pressure on a doctor to diagnose a patient correctly, or on an engineer to design and build something that doesn't collapse and kill everyone.

Not to be callous, but people who really want to take their own lives should be able to manage it the second time. He is not paralysed in a hospital bed only able to communicate with his eyebrows, when committing suicide could be difficult. Lee Hendrie doesn't want to kill himself, he just wants attention.
