$7,000,000 Worth OJ Simpsons Pension Funds Are a Nightmare For Goldman FamilyDespite Court Order

Publish date: 2024-06-18

One of the biggest controversies to this date in the NFL world is the one that involved OJ Simpson. The #1 pick in the 1969 NFL draft was involved in a public trial for murder. After his imprisonment and parole, Juice finally walked out but not scot-free. Before the controversy and the trials, Simpson was a wealthy man. However, the trial and its aftermath have affected Simpson in a fiscal sense. Although he is supposed to fulfill a payment to the Goldman family, the former running back has managed to save some for himself.

While Simpson does exact an interesting amount of pension from the NFL, he also has other sources. With the aftermath of his trial and court proceedings, one would’ve expected Simpson to be at the edge of bankruptcy. However, the NFL HOFer’s financial planning has saved him from paying his huge settlement to the Goldman family. The interesting part of this arrangement is that it’s completely legal. Here’s how it works.

How exactly is OJ Simpson dodging the hefty court order?

As an ex-NFL player, Simpson has gone on to amass a huge amount of wealth from his playing days. Through different brand endorsements and sponsorships, he had previously made a lot of money. After his trial, Simpson was ordered by the court to pay the Goldman family a whopping $33.5 million in damages.

Juice has managed to evade that in a very interesting turn of events. Any money Simpson makes is supposed to go to the settlement that he owes to the Goldmans. However, as per Celebrity Net Worth, Simpson’s pension funds are untouchable, as these funds are fully protected from legal judgments and bankruptcy.

The ex-Buffalo Bills player has a lot of his money typed up in different pension funds. This cannot be legally touched by any lawsuit and it can’t even be used if Juice ever decides to declare bankruptcy. As the money Simpson has in pensions cannot be touched by the Goldman family, his payment to them remains incomplete. However, Juice lives a lavish lifestyle. So how much does he actually have stashed in his pension funds?

The wealthy pension coffers of Juice

While Simpson’s wealth might not be what it was, he still remains to be a millionaire. He exacts a pension from the NFL that is about $10,600 per month. Simpson also has a pension fund that he invested in before he got arrested. Lastly, Juice also has a small pension coming in from the Screen Actor’s Guild. The valuation of that fund is anywhere between $2 million to $5 million.

The most interesting part of his wealth is that his money cannot be touched by the Goldman family or any legal action taken against him. All in all, Juice and his lifestyle are taken care of by his pensions and not a penny of it can be touched by anyone else.

With the way his financials are planned, Simpson could live his days without paying the damages that he had been instructed to pay. It only remains to be seen if the Goldman family can find a loophole through which they would be able to make Simpson pay his legal mandate.
