During the program “Quelle Époque” on Sunday April 23, David Ginola and Tony Parker confided in the financial success of athletes
A sentence and a buzz. During the program Quelle epoque presented by Léa Salamé on Sunday April 23 on France 2, David Ginola and Tony Parker were asked about the financial success of athletes by the journalist, “earning so much money, does it freak out?” she asks. Immediately, the one who will be inducted into the NBA Hall of Fame in a few weeks replied, not without a touch of irony, “they like this question too much in France.”
“We send our children to school for what? Why do we tell the children: ‘you have to do well at school, that you have a great job’?” Asked David Ginola, evoking the taboo around the ‘money. “It’s a problem, in France, we don’t say how much we earn! Me, in England, it was displayed. Everyone knew how much people were earning,” he added. Same observation in the United States for Tony Parker: “Same. They are proud of the success and they are not afraid to talk about it, it is not a taboo subject. I have always been very clear with that. I take it.”
