Money

Justin Bieber thinks it's way too late to say "Sorry" when it comes to some of his former business managers -- he thinks they grossly mismanaged his money, and it could be time to take legal action.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Justin's been very upset for several years, claiming he's lost a ton of money as a result of terrible decisions made by business managers -- we don't know how many managers, but we do know it's more than one.

It's unclear just how much Justin thinks has been squandered -- other than it's a huge amount -- but our sources say he's discussing the possibility of filing a lawsuit against the alleged offenders. We're told his current team is split -- some members want him to sue, but others don't.

Shohei Ohtani's historic 50/50 ball has a new owner -- the highly coveted piece of baseball memorabilia just sold for a whopping $4.39 MILLION at auction ... making it the most valuable ball in sports history.

Bidding on the item -- which was cosigned with Goldin Auctions -- ended on Tuesday ... and the final number far surpassed the $3 million paid for Mark McGwire's 70th home run ball from 1998, the previous record holder for balls sold at auction.

The winning offer was $3.6 million ... but including the 22-percent buyer's premium, it reached a staggering $4,392,000 price tag.

MLB fans looking to own Shohei Ohtani's historic 50/50 home run ball might need to break a few more piggy banks for it than they initially expected ... 'cause Ken Goldin just revealed to TMZ Sports it wouldn't surprise him if the baseball sold for over $10 MILLION later this week.

Currently, the memento -- which Ohtani smacked over a left field wall during a never-before-seen performance against the Marlins back on Sept. 19 -- is a few mil away from getting to eight figures ... but Goldin says it's totally possible it reaches the plateau by the time the final gavel drops on bidding on Tuesday night.

According to the auction expert -- whose auction house is actually overseeing the sale -- most bids usually come in the final hours ... and with it already being up over $2 mil, it can threaten the $10 mil threshold for sure.
