From Matt Corral's Mom: GoFundMe for her niece that passed (Matt's cousin)

[thunderraiden]

 

Very sad, if any one would like to donate I thought I would post it here.
 

[Mr. Scot]

Damn. Sad to hear.

Hearts and prayers

Hate to hear it.  With someone that young it’s especially tragic, can’t imagine what her poor kids are going through.

Sad, but Corral just became a millionaire, do they really need a gofundme right now trying to get donations from people scraping by with all this inflation?

Corral likely isn't a millionaire just yet.

They don't pay him his entire salary just for signing his rookie contract.

I don't know what the financial situation is like for the families involved, but I am curious when seemingly "well off" folks create gofundme's.

Awful lot of assumptions being made in this thread

Man, that sucks.

As far as a gofundme, the reality is that children are incredibly expensive.  Those children are going to need income to survive, even in a family's care.  I have no problem with it.  We don't know the details of their lives, and that's a much bigger issue at hand.

As far as Matt's money, outside of his signing bonus, which is going to have to repay his agents and lots of post college draft prep, he's not as rich as we all think.  There's also no certainty that Matt gets that big second contract.  Heck, that he starts anytime this year.

Yeah, losing family is horrible.

No he didn’t.  He is a 3rd round pick.  3rd round rookie deals are like 800k ish a year and I don’t think contain guaranteed money….and you get that money weekly during the actual season.   Then factor in taxes on that.   He ain’t taking all that actually home.   He ain’t rolling in dough yet. 

there are huddlers with more cash on hand than Corral right now.   People can do what they want with their money.  3 small kids lost their mom.   Kids are super expensive.  

Can’t go around and dismissing the idea that no one needs help because they got an okay 2nd cousin somewhere out there.

Matt's also mentioned on IG posts about paying off family debt once drafted. Anyone assuming the family asking for a modest $10k for 3 children to have some stability while figuring out which parent or sibling can afford to take them in is some kind of cash grab, pretty low
