ThisThat’s not all it shows - that’s what a negative view would be.
The positive viewpoint, as outlined in the OP, is that we’ve acquired talent worth way more than what we paid - even if the individuals are now worth less than what they were once sold for.
Pritchard for example - he’s not worth 12m now. Although we got him for free and I’d honestly say he’s worth 2/3m at least. It’s smart business and if we decided to sell him in the summer we’d make a profit, a 7 figure profit.
