Does the World invest in US Soccer or would that be detrimental?

I love how someone can look down upon someone for being arrogant, while not realizing that being arrogant isn't 1/10th as bad as wishing bad things on other people.

The lack of self awareness is the funny part, here.

He's not smart with his money (he can spend a lot now because he makes a lot), he's incredibly arrogant. I have reasons for not liking him. I do not care for people that act like a jackass, and he does.



And no I wouldn't be this fricking stupid if I made this kind of money. I wouldn't wear a different pair of shoes every day, or flaunt cash on social media because that's not me. I'd invest, I'd be smart with it and I'd plan for the future of my family.
