there is all these millionaires, who BTW, I do not begrudge.
The point is they have most of them shown energy, enterprise, some of them have risen from humble beginnings, others built upon what they got. Very few of them, that I can think of, almost none, are robber barons like the Russian billionaires who looted and bilked their country.
And they have now made a grand new plan for making cricket a billionaire league, which is all good. They have international players and many regional teams sponsored by millionaires.
Which is all great.
But where is the understanding that they still have to raise all boats.
do you know what the latest excess was, apparently at the recent match, which may have been their first, they had a gold and diamond helmet as trophy for man of the match.
That is simply horrendous and out there.
No schools or scholarships for deserving or even un deserving children, no roads, no wells for needy villages, no damn thing of that sort.
Like we are gonna be impressed with this gold helmet crap, it just looks silly and excessive.
BTW, Shahrukh Khan's antics are so cynical, this guy knows a little mugging for the camera brings in the big bucks. Times of India, butt kisser of big bidness loved it, DNA was incoherent but tried to use a little irony and cynicism.
I would really be impressed if every day I picked up the paper and saw which rural villages had their infra structure improved by Vijay Mallya, the Tatas, the Dhoots, the Ambanis et al. And speaking of the Ambanis not by first getting the money from Big India Government.
I dont see how pouring money into Formula One beats elevating villages. If you have the money, please flaunt it, we like flaunt, we just want to see villages and slums thrive.
That will thrill us a lot more than silly gold helmets, which just look like a ludicrous travesty.
Bye bye

you are the ludicrous travesty.
run down a man who has given crones to charities many times by donations that are not made public because he person who cares and is humble not at all as you say here. look st the public donations to hospitals too. you don't know of what you speak.
thanks for the comment, but the point still is that anyone can claim that they are anonymously donating stuff, that is neither here nor there.
Further more, if they are so humble, why are they mugging for the cameras and advertising their huge wealth and the huge salaries they are willing to fork out and the ludicrous looking gold helmet.
The point is if they have all that money are longing to make a show and want us to be impressed with the Premier League, why don't they incorporate their supposed do goodiness into the program.
They could keep one block of seats for under privileged kids and each session, fly in or bus in a community of children with their parents, that could be one way, others could be, each game could have a prize for a new road or new building or new street lamps for an under privileged area, and so forth.
The point is they cannot claim to be humble and anonymous and then mug for the cameras, boast of their wealth and tax paying status, boast of the salaries they are paying out and give away ludicrous gold helmets.
That's the point.
If they got it, sure flaunt it, we just gave our opinion on how we like to see flaunt, and we sure would like flaunt in that way.
I would love to see a whole block of seats reserved for under priv kids and parents at every game with free cookies and beverages and new t shirts and full both way transportation and accomodation.
But hahaahhahahahahaha, it won't be anonymous.
But it will be better than the silly gold helmet.
Bye bye.
