Busting the bank

Will he be taking the 120 million Euros flight to the Sky Blue fields of Manchester?

Here's a trivia : Where in the world can you get 120 million Euros to enable a man to change his working place from Italy to England? Well, in the blue-half of Manchester of course! The sheikhs have generously channeled their oil money for an all-out attempt to poach world-class Brazillian playmaker midfielder, Kaka from AC Milan. In addition to paying the whopping 120 million Euros to transfer Kaka out of Milan, the bosses in Man City are going to pay his papa 31 million pounds to push through the deal and Kaka himself is speculated to be given a contract worth 500,000 British pounds PER WEEK. That translates 71428 pounds per day and 2976 pounds per hour. Gosh, Kaka can go sponsor my one entire year of living and tuition fees in Leeds using his one day worth of wages! He can also sponsor another 2 or 3 years to include my LLM masters and the Bar Vocational Course..hahaha. Seriously,wth...I don't even wanna pay half of that sum of money to transfer ONE player in the fantasy world of Football Manager and they are doing this in reality..lol.

Milan is obviously happy to receive 120 million Euros for the coffers to replenish their old horses, but that decision lies with Kaka ultimately on the prospect of joining a club that is languishing in 15th place and has trouble beating West Brom and Middlesbrough. The football market is gonna get screwed if this goes through. Thanks to the sheikhs, the inflation rate in the football market is gonna gallop a few times fold more than usual. About 15 years ago, during those old days when Roy Keane was just a young lad, 4 million pounds was already busting the bank. And now, Man City had to inflate the benchmark limit by almost four times of the average 30 million pounds nowadays to desperately secure a good player. I understand that some cash stimulation is needed for the state of economic deflation now, but this is extreme stuff! Hmmm..perhaps maybe Milan will be the first city to get out of recession..lol. I think half of Africa's poverty problems could be eradicated if the sheikhs were to direct the 120 million Euros there instead. Well, we live in the world of inequities afterall..haha. And that's why we have something called inefficient allocation of resources :)
