You guys just type. One has to avoid responding to these posts..Does a PhD train people to be millionaires/billionaires or to be researchers? Mhen, I tire for how my people compare apples to agbo iba. Na wah oooh.

Mikel is in a lucrative industry that requires raw skills and honed talents to excel and he is excelling big time and earning the bucks that are obtainable in the industry. The football industry does not require a WAEC certificate. Just get skills and be lucky and go far and make big bucks.

If one goes by the arguments some of you are giving, it means we should be dissing established and rich footballers and other sportsmen/women because they cannot solve the second order quantum mechanics in physics.

I just tire for those equating academic rewards to football rewards..Do you think many of these players would have gone very far if the same PhD people some of you are dissing have not done proper research to come up with the right diet, exercise and all to enhance their football capabilities..

Mhen, let me stop here. Sure you get the drift, but you are free to retain your views, lol. After all, young people of nowdays say they have views, lol

one person go come tell me say go to school and become somebody....... All the guru for my department then in school are all teachers now. Abeg my children must get talent. education is losing its relevance.

No, education is not losing its relevance. I am afraid for these youths. The trend I see on nairaland is not cool, in my view, and as someone who has been around perhaps longer than some of you, I think I need say one or two things.

Education does not promise you billions. If you want to become a billionaire, learn a trade or exploit any perceived talents you think you have...Education does not necessarily make people wealthy. In the history of wealthy people, very few have a fantastic education. You are comparing apples and agbo as I said to one of your contemporaries that hold the same view as you.

I always tell people that my kids will play football, but tah, that does not and will not stop them from getting an education. Both are not substitutes.. Both can be achieved, albeit at different times

Bro, it's simple, not by force, don't go school. Just tell the person you're not interested. It's not that hard..Is it?

Go and play for chinese club mikel

Bro, those Chinese clubs, some of them can be dubious..And I believe oga Mikel knows this and has heard from former colleagues..Did you know, as I read, that some of those clubs will promise big money, then if the player comes and later begins to underperform, which at some point will happen to a player, stories about wages will begin to crop up. I was shocked when I read about this, can't remember where again. But there are related info on the internet. Didier Drogba and Seydou Keita are easy examples of guys promised big wages only for the clubs to start telling stories, as I heard.

Oga Mikel knows this..

its high time Nigeria taxes all earnings by Nigerians all over the world.

Lol

Blackskinned:
chinese clubs offer is always like their product...E nor dey last
Ask Drogba,Anealka and others!

Correct. I didn't see this before posting the above. Will be hard for Mikel to leave for China. He is well aware.

Mayflowa:


These people have made their bed and so the sleep is good now. Nigeria bed is rumpled. You need education to develop technologically. So do yo mean we will never make our light bulb, we will never make fridge, tv and aircraft? You and others have to sacrifice their wealth for these achievement. Our next generation should reap our hardwork today

Mhen, I'm scared of what is happening if nairaland represents Naija's current youth. Well, it's our duty to guide them. Thank God nairaland is anonymous. Perhaps it would have been more difficult to dish out unsolicited pieces of advice.

Nigeria can't even collect or manage well the taxes it collects.

The moment any stupid Nigerian govt tries this, people overseas will throw their Nigerian passports in the thrash.

Do you know how much Nigerians overseas already send to family and friends back in Nigeria?

hahahahahaha You wont kill someone with laugh..

Just for kicking a round leather by running around the pitch n sometimes seating on the bench when injury or fatigue occurs to also watch his fellow teammates running around the pitch some one earns more than all the Nigerian professors could earn in their life time in just one week. I must tell Fifa this is the highest form of corruption.

NGrevolution:
one question, wetin these footballers dey use their money do

That's none of ur business

coded01:
Sebod, Airmark, Dmcdad how far? See money...

He should just grab it already. After all, he has finally lost his place in the Chelsea team.

Phi001:

New deal 500k

500k? what currency?

He should go to cska Moscow or dynamo kiev. so he can spend more time with his kids and Russian bae

Is it a crime to carry is family along with him? He should get the money jare.

Ego le? Nna na now we go know whether you be full blooded igbo or a fake one. I trust my guy would go for the money since that was the same reason he dodged Man U to play for Chelsea. Nwa nnem!

This offer is too good to miss provided there are no tight conditionalities in the contract...

Also the tax to be borne needs to be considered

He should take a cue from etoo who joined anzhi machkalala and became the highest paid footballer despite being an unknown club and martins who joined a Chinese club and bought the worlds most expensive SUV Bentayga

Education is not a money-making-venture as u perceived it. Else, u see it as an end itself, however, its a means to an end with which u develop positive changes for d overall benefit of a society. I mean no harm!

Na so oooo broda.

Mikel has nothing to prove again. He has won virtually everything...... He should just go collect his pension in china

Wasted his playing career in the Chelsea bench, he would have been worth more had he played... Now he will go for the money. Wish you good luck bro, enjoy!
