Unlike earning your money through hard work academically, good investments, failure and learning from their mistakes like a lot of hugely rich people , footballers instead are greatly gifted with a skill. No doubt they work incredibly hard as youngsters and trying to make it, but unlike business man this often doesn't make you wise with money etc Same with a lot of lottery winners, not sure how to handle it all etc and end up losing it! Some are still smart or just earn so much they will be sorted for life! Just sticking a huge lump in a good private bank and you can live off interest comfortably! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thing is after the bank has their cut, the tax man and every other f****r you don't get a big return unless your willing to make risky investments. Family member was left a lot of money recently and they only get about 6%, after all the expenses etc it's more like 3%. Everyone wants a piece of your pie for helping you decide where to let it cool Quote Link to post Share on other sites
