    Personally I'd like hm to sling his hook.
    £400k a week does seem slightly excessive, I admit. Would his lifestyle really be that much different with an extra couple of hundred thousand a week? Does it really matter when you've got that much dosh? I assume these are more or less the sums that you're raking in, so do enlighten me.

    Imagine earning £2 million a year. You're flying first class, staying in the best hotels, eating in the best restaurants, rubbing shoulders with guys who are earning 10, 15, 20 million a year.

    One lives to one's income. it's inevitable. I've felt more skint whilst earning lots than at times when I earnt very little.

    Anyway, it's about his family. He has a chance to build alegacy so that neither his children nor his grandchildren nor their children ever have to worry about money. I'd say he has a moral obligation to do that as efficiently as he can.

    Pfft. He'll spoil them. They should learn to stand on their own two feet etc. Backbone and stuff. Otherwise they'll end up pampered and weak.

    As long as they have sufficient money they'll be pampered and powerful. That's what money give you; the power to make decisions.

    They'll turn out right cunds, though, surely. He has a moral obligation to society to make sure they become hardworking and self-sufficient citizens, who know the value of a days work imo.

    I'm starting to sound like you ol' lot

    Fúck any child of mine having to work like I've worked. If they turned out to be unpleasant brats but never had to sweat over a gas bill, I'd be delighted.

    There are many shítty outcomes for a human being, but poverty suckz the greatest of all ass.

    Preach, brother.

    "But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."

    Lord no. I spent the first 20 years of my career very much in an operational role. It's only in the last 12 or so that I have ruthlessly exploited* hoi polloi to keep me in champagne and caviar.**

    *Overpaid and mollycoddled

    ** Champagne and lobster

    Yes. I am demanding that Alexis' children live in poverty.
