So which of you fools.... 07:11 - Nov 16 with 2991 viewsblueconscience

...wasted $450,000,000 on a terrible painting of a fictional charactor instead of investing the money into the club at this time of need.

Makes football look sane.

We needed it as 'the colours will go perfectly with the Field mouse paint in the hall'.

I wouldn't have put the money into the club though: this is a much more tax-efficient investment.

The 'fee' is a set percentage to the auction house, with the rest of the money going to the seller

Well, I imagine this is an investment which will increase in value, as opposed to investing in football, which is the equivalent of flushing your cash down the bog.

It's not even a very good painting, I mean, he tried... but there's something about it that Da Vinci didn't quite get right from the original...

So you don't believe Jesus of Nazareth ever existed?

I also noted that the previous sale of the painting was a whopping £45 in 1958. That's some markup even when you adjust for inflation!

Why was there $50m in fees?

And also it seems to agreed that it has been 're-done' multiple times due to damage and the deterioration of the board behind it.

I hope somewhere in Yorkshire there are a couple of old dears that won £450 million on the Euromillions and are now sitting in their council home with a da Vinci on the wall next to their pictures of the grandchildren
