Its sad but it boils down to greed. Making more money that what you are supposed to make. Getting X amount of dollars over slot so the agent can brag.

It seems like Matt is at peace with his decision, and is doing ok financially because of the law suit and insurance policy, but at one point in his career his signature was worth $4.9M. Scary thing is that is more money than he will probably make over the course of his working life.
