RE: OT: Officially The Official Soccer Thread
This was worth sharing.

Sadio Mané - formerly of Liverpool in the English Premier League, and now on Bayern München of the German Bundesliga - hails from Senegal and makes over $10 Million/year playing the sport. While at Liverpool, he gave the world a rude awakening after some fans were shocked when they saw him carrying a cracked iPhone11. Here was his response...

"Why would I want 10 Ferraris, 20 diamond watches, and 2 jet planes? I starved, I worked in the fields, played barefoot, and I didn't go to school. Now I can help people. I prefer to build schools and give poor people food or clothing. I have built schools and a stadium, provide clothes, shoes, and food for people in extreme poverty. In addition, I give 70 euros per month to all people from a very poor Senegalese region in order to contribute to their family economy. I do not need to display luxury cars, luxury homes, trips, and even planes. I prefer that my people receive some of what life has given me."

This guy has instantly become my favorite footballer.
