Can a football player be worth 150 million pounds?
I hear that a certain Newcastle United player is appreciated about that.
Is it relevant? Is it true?
Well, in my work I earn 50k a year, but my employers are not desperate to hold on because they know they can easily replace me and do this and save money.
However, that would be with a much inferior replacement, so I still have a job.
Strange that. Value is relative.
This week I was lucky in the mood for the Arsenal match, but still had to give up considerable money, £ 39 for a chair in the Niveaum 7 -family housing.
I don’t dare to watch the prizes elsewhere, because I have little to no chance to get a ticket there.
Earlier this week I had a conversation with my non-imaginary partner who is a Liverpool who supports football fan.
He is an LFC member and can go on average to at least two games per season with his son, after he had requested all the games in Anfield.
The price for his tickets in similar seats for me was more than I paid, but it is Liverpool.
Thirty years ago none of the above was relevant. Money was not relevant.
Artists such as the Chapman Brothers took huge amounts of conservative donors for their artworks, while the KLF burned a million pounds and Alan Shearer signed for us for a world record compensation.
In the 1980s, Martin Amis wrote a novel entitled ‘Money’ with a subtitle of ‘Suicide Note’.
There you have it, a suicide note of 150 million pounds.
