When you have more money than you can spend in a life, quality of life should be the focus. Just wish it wasn't handicapping Barca.

These famous people don't think that way - they see a bigger bank balance as being a superior person. No amount is ever enough.

Me and you think that way but they don't.

Not all of them, majority of top footballers don't actually. Every top player would be playing in SA if that was true.

I am not saying it's all or nothing. Just because they're not playing in Saudi Arabia doesn't mean they don't want as much money as they can get. They still wanna play at the top of the game but they'll do anything to get more money. And the majority of them would go there when their career is finished to make as much money as they can.

They want as much money as they can get, but while in their prime their career matters to them too. But a lot of them would rather take a higher wage in Europe at a lesser team in Europe. See the mercenaries who go to the finished club Man United, like Yoro (should be at miles better team at Real Madrid but United offered much higher transfer fee and wages), Mbeumo, Cunha and many others from the past.

Furthermore, I am more talking about the elite of the elite within fields. Not your usual guy at Fulham who is an elite player relative to most pros but not right at the elite within the elite ie a world-class player or CL winner.
