...Bronx-born Fort Lauderdale attorney had to have the flashiest Rolexes (so he bought a local boutique watch shop), the most houses (luxury mansions and condos from Manhattan to Morocco), the hottest cars (Rolls-Royce, Lamborghini) and the coolest yacht (an 87-footer). He had to leave the heftiest tips, usually at the upscale restaurants he co-owned, and schmooze the most powerful politicians - like Florida Governor Charlie Crist, for whom Rothstein bought a $52,000 cake, as a contribution to the state's Republican Party, on Crist's 52nd birthday...

Highlight Reel: 1. Climbing costs in the classroom: Private colleges and universities come with the heftiest bills, though most students rely on public colleges and universities (in fact, just a quarter of students face costs of $21,000 or more).

...Mansfield, 44, a center and therefore a realist, started selling life insurance on the side. "We never have that one extreme moment of football glory," he says, "so offensive linemen are less afraid of living on." They receive on-the-job training in anonymity. A gathering of the heftiest Steelers watched the Super Bowl together that year, and at one point Mansfield gave voice to their unreasonable dream of someday playing in one. As it happened, they would play in four, starting back in Tulane Stadium at Super Bowl IX. "The few of us who spent half our Steeler careers...
