that 'give' is the really interesting bit

most of these people plowing money into clubs are doing it through loans not gifts. There are already more multimillionaire investors than available places at the Prem gravy train. A lot of these investors are going to lose a lot of money, and no-one knows what they'll do to try and get their money back. It's a new frantic phenomenon right now (like a gold rush or the dotcom boom), and the longer-term consequences aren't at all clear. It is quite possible that in the longer term staying out of the frenzy turns out to be a wise move. Alternatively it might not. But it isn't black and white by any means.
