Mega Rich People Options

[3SGTE]

Jus saw in the news that madonna (madge) has topped the rich list for females with a whopping £38 million pounds ($60 million approx) made last year.... How can they justify making that much money?? Dont they ever just make enough??

It does my head in when people who have proper jobs, and work their ass off, never scratch at that kind of money

Good for Madge for making a **** load of money...she has worked very hard over the years to get to where she is/was, as do many of the ultra rich people, imagine doing concerts every other night or whatever they do, constantly for months on end, away from home etc and as crazy as it sounds I bet even that lifestyle wears a bit thin after a while, and all the charity work these people usually do etc etc, and you dont get money for nothing, somewhere along the line they had just as much money as us (unless they were born into money). The were just lucky or talented.

As for sports men and women they are only rich from demand from us, if we stopped watchin the games, buying the merchandise etc etc...they would soon be earning alot less.

Yeaa...but u could say that for every rich person. If we stopped goin to concerts, stopped buy cds, stopped watching movies, stopped watching TV shows, stop listening to the radio, stop goin to broadways...every celebrity who is rich, is rich because of us; so to just generalize athletes like that is just assanine. Everybody who is famous is rich is famous because of us.

I love how u make Madge into this glorified hard working person that made millions and millions on her own, whereas athletes got help from millions of fans. Football players especially is an all year sport...season runs from OTAs in mid-late spring and runs all the way to Feb. Same with baseball and basketball players and almost every other professional athlete out there.
