Money is useful, let's be clear, it is useful for everyone but to think that it is the goal to be pursued by overlooking people or honor and loyalty is something squalid
What do you think about football?

Did you think those players that are in European leagues are their for any other reasons than money? No. They are looking for a good career and money and nothing else more than that. If a Saudi Arabian league can buy them at higher price, they may prefer to go to such league. Only success is the reason they are there.

Since they are a child, all Brazilian players have the dream to play for the best European teams like Real Madrid, Barcelona, Inter, etc. Of course they get thriled with the money but like I said in my previous post, this is not the only reason. For the same amount of money offered in the Brazilian league and European, most would prefer to go to a top team in Premier League or La Liga.

This already proves that there is more than money.

But Saudis are going too heavy, it's hard to decide for the good football when they are offering to retire you and your 10 next generations for a few years of playing.

A little bit more of money may not be enough to choose greedy, but a lot more of money is enough. That's why they offer so much more, it's the only way for the top players to sell their souls to go play where they don't want to play.

yes but that's not the point
Mateo Retegui was already making a lot of money
what difference did it make, he was already rich

like Cristiano Ronaldo, like others... people who have millions and millions, but they are never enough
The more they have, the more they want, this is the point I focused on.

Maradona didn't earn as much as them and yet he was rich! and Pele too

Even neymar is doing gambling advertisements of bad shady casinos because they offer him a lot of money. And he is already super rich after being in Al Hilal. It's like he is addicted to make more money even if he does not need more.
