Crazy Disparity of Finances

[angie]

Interesting Guardian article about what Gareth Bale’s record transfer fee to Real Madrid could have done to help the economy 😯

http://www.theguardian.com/news/datablog/2013/ … s-to-spend

Just 2 examples:

An extra 3703 Spanish workers could join the economy on average wages

With Spain’s minimum wage of 752 Euros per month, it could have paid 11,069 Spaniards to work for a year

And there’s more 🙄 Football/the World gone mad 🙄 😡

[angie]

Considering this cost 1 Billion Euros to build it’s yours now for 100 million Euros, the same cost as Gareth Bale, despite being 100 miles or so from Madrid, might have been a better long term investment 😯 😉
