Misconception in football - Players are so rich

It's all relative. Compared to most people in the world I'm fucking rich.

I always remember when my wife's cousin went to Uganda. A child was very ill, and she forked out £25 for it to be treated in hospital, which saved its life. £25? Big deal? It was ten months' income for that child's parents.

Top footballers are entertainers and top entertainers have always been paid stupid money, especially since TV/radio/film/records made it possible for them to entertain millions of people.
 
A lot of these fellas are remarkable at making money. They can bet millions on penny swings and juggle money around. Comparing entrepreneurs, business peoples etc to footballers is weird to me.

They don't deserve to be in the same bracket as a Warren Buffet, Elon Musk or Bill Gates type person. They just kick a ball around.

Footballers are overpaid full stop
