Sir David Beckham Becomes UK's First Billionaire Sportsman


Leaked emails from 2017 revealed David Beckham’s frustration at being passed over for a knighthood, allegedly branding the honours committee "unappreciative c***s" and calling the system a "f***ing joke". The messages, sent to his PR team, showed anger over a 2013 snub and questioned why others received honours.
 
“Meanwhile, Manchester United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe has dropped from seventh to ninth in the UK overall, with his fortune having decreased by £1.85bn to £15.194bn.”

Words can’t describe how gutted I am for the bloke, he must be struggling to pay his bills after that? Thoughts and prayers to his family.

He’ll probably sack a couple more tea ladies to cheer himself up.

He'll earn more in interest every day, than 5 years wage for someone on NMW. And thats based off the standard rate that is available to us plebs, not the nice cushy rates people like him get.

Fuck billionaires.

He will only have a small percentage in cash / bonds as well anyway. The rest will be diversified into assets and stocks etc.

Much higher gains, especially over a long period with compounding.

Should never have got a knighthood, came across as if everything good he done was for the sole purpose to be knighted for his 'brand'

Probably the most likeable he's ever come across.

Rich in dollars, but poor in class. I'd rather be skint and have a happy family than be ostracised from my son.

and people say "money won't change me". He seemed a nice lad by all accounts before he started with all the "brand Beckham" nonsense. I've never known anyone be so desperate for attention, and to want his face on tv either advertising, or endorsing, or just generally wanting to make it all about him, as much as he does. It must be an addiction.
