NBA star DeShawn Stevenson installs ATM in his kitchen. “For the sports star who has everything there remains one tiresome problem – how do you get hold of your millions without having to leave the house?” Well, you never can tell when you’ll need some quick cash to tip the cabbie who drove you down from the bedroom or something.

  • And this is why in a decade or so he will be flat broke and begging for money on the street like his other NBA brothers in arms

    • then your buds can't take out more cash when they gotta ante up.. dunno, i'm trying to figure out a good reason for this too

    • Then he would have to remember the combination. Which brings up an interesting thought: I'll bet his PIN for the ATM is his address.

  • Um, I'm wondering, who fills the damned thing?
    If he needs to get cash from the machine and he forgot to fill it, what good does it do him? You can't get cash from unicorn farts!

    • I guess he thinks the money gets put in the ATM by magic leprechauns. This might be the dumbest thing I've ever read. If you're going to pay an armored truck to come stock the ATM, why not just pay them to bring you some pizza money and save the space in the kitchen for a draft beer dispenser?

      • Some people on MTV Cribs have flossed ATMs and it is there in many of the cases in order for people to pay for gambling debts as they play and gamble in the house.

        • Wouldn't that be admission of gambling (an illegal activity) in your house?
          I don't watch Cribs, so I missed out on this.

          • Well if gambling in your house and property is a crime or an illegal activity then a lot of NBA dudes, people like 50 Cent and other rappers should be all be getting a call from the popo then, but I seriously doubt it, because didn't hear of that happening. In the early 00's there was a lot of people who had ATM's in order to get the players to pay up right then and there...

  • Uhm... *wonders why this is news* ATM in rich people's home is not new, just watch old episodes of Cribs especially at the beginning of the century.
