Saw a TV documentary many years ago where the TV crew followed Dyer about. He went into car show rooms and looked at all sorts of supercars. When he didn't buy one he was asked why not and he said he either owned or had owned all of them. When he couldn't think of anything else to buy for himself he bought the most disgusting, blingy watch. It was huge, covered in diamonds and jewels and cost (if I remember rightly) £65,000. He said he didn't know what else to buy. That has been an abiding memory for me and always springs to mind when people talk about what players earn or 'are worth'. They generally have more money than they know what to with but continually expect more.
EDIT; I suppose the fact that Dyer ended up eating worms in the jungle to pay his debts shows that if you are a big enough bell end, it is possible to spunk more money than you could reasonably shake a stick at.
