They could afford Ric.
It's the bar tab that would send them into bankruptcy.

I feel like I need to see/hear that comment in full context because it barely makes any sense at all. Why would anyone pay Flair a ton of money when he was a 25 year old with little reputation? Also, why couldn't WWE afford him? Even adjusted for inflation, there's no way 1974 Ric Flair was making 80s Hogan, 90s Rock/Austin, or 2000s Cena money. I doubt 1986 Ric Flair was making as much as any of those guys. His comment is so weird, it borders on incoherence.

Yes, the company with the virtual monopoly on the industry couldn't afford 25-year-old you.
Perhaps instead you could go to Japan and work with guys like Ishii, Goto and Suzuki on a regular basis. I'm sure you'd love that.

Ummmm, if the WWE couldn't afford him, where would he go? LOLTNA? I thought he was meant to be a smart businessman?

I read "afford" and "broke" and presumed he was getting divorced again.

In Ric's own mind "WWE couldn't afford me if I broke in today" In reality

Fortunately he's been around a while, so his current appearance fee is a pack of ramen noodles, a Dr Thunder soda and $10.

So what happens when he successfully negotiates this deal and then gets to the routine drug test?

Just watched the video and it seemed a pretty tongue in cheek comment. Wink and a smile kind of thing.

Could they even afford to pay Flair to wrestle Braun?! I DON'T KNOOOOOW! Braun and Ric's ex-wives: "I'M NOT FINISHED WITH YOU!!"

Flair continuing to live the gimmick well into retirement makes me happy.

If they gave him part of the company, he would still go broke.

Flair must not be remembering well because him at 25 isn't the Flair the WWE would be paying a lot to have.
