Moritz: Pay footballers more than hedge fund managers

5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

Sir Michael Moritz, co-author of Leadership with Sir Alex Ferguson, says footballers are undervalued compared to hedge fund managers. Welsh-born Moritz, an early investor in some of Silicon Valley's biggest names, including Google Linkedin, Yahoo and Whatsapp, said footballers deserved 鈥渁 lot more鈥�. 鈥淚t makes absolutely no sense to me that an incredibly talented midfielder for Swansea City gets paid less than some 27-year-old punk who can manipulate an Excel spreadsheet and works in the lower realm of a hedge fund", he said. This clip is originally from Wake Up to Money on Wednesday 23 September 2015.
