Olympic figure skater Dorothy Hamill, who won gold in the 1976 Winter Olympics, experienced financial troubles in her post-golden years. She filed for bankruptcy in 1997 after she was left financially depressed by a row of bad investments, marital instability, and all the expenses needed to sustain her status.

While her post-retirement life was marked by financial struggles, Hamill eventually returned to skating in ice shows and also pursued television appearances.
