Three minutes and he's "earned" my weekly wage

Haha thats pretty amazing ?

If you go on that page and then select Tevez instead of Neymar it's even more of an eye opener!

I only work part-time at the moment but even so it would take him less than a minute to earn what I earn in a week, and on my salary if I wanted to earn what he earns in a year I would've had to have started in 6390BC!

I'd quite like the bubble to burst one day to be honest, football would still exist afterwards.... things are getting out of control. 

Although I am saying that as a supporter of a team which would probably come out of that a lot better than many of their divisional rivals, would give us all a new perspective when talking about "ambition" when there are clubs in this league with ten figure debts.

Neymar is much better value at £537,000 per week than Naismith is at £50,000 a week*

* If we believe that number.

Lol, just put my brother in laws salary into the calculator (senior management at Microsoft, in Seattle) and it still only takes Neymar 55 minutes to earn it. 

Not doing mine, I'm depressed enough.

Oh my that was depressing, and I'm not paying direct tax either (but certainly some indirect trust me.....I call it tax by stealth) !
