Hamilton to top Brit rich list
The way people warship their heroes is amazing, ok their very good at what they do but sometimes it gets to a ridiculous point and I don’t mean that for Luis specifically but for all celebrities in general.

Well, their biggest sport is Football, and I guess the highest-paid stars are no longer british (e.g., Cristiano Ronaldo)
It can be argued LH is doing something / contributing to his team, vs Becks on the other hand

Not really... he moved to Switzerland last year to avoid being taxed in the UK...

One more thing... the article quotes a "speculative" 75 million POUND contract over 3 years with McLaren... I've never heard such figure before and I really do pay attention. It seems inflated.

if he dosent get his act together inside the car, he will probably end up somewhere in the bottom of some other list.
it seems to me that lewis & his daddy are more concerned with signing deals with sponsors etc... than the actual racing. this will only lead to axtra preassure for him to cope with.
this kind of approach at that time of his career is risky.

Whatever LH can do for MM is more than what Becks is doing for his team (pretty much nada)

I don't think he is going to end up like Jensen because he is driving a good car. The new Honda isn't competitive that's why Jensen lost his glamour.
What's going to happen is that people will realize that even though he is a very good driver, he is not the new Ayrton Senna as they were saying last year. Heikki has and is going to prove that, he just got so unlucky this year.

he's going to join a band, or start modeling.
IMO he should stick to doing what he does best, which is racing.
