The Reason Why Pacs Stock Has Fallen

[HeroBando]

Dunno about this, the Philippines is not a rich country and I've never heard of politics being lucrative over there. Manny's made a **** ton of money over the years, that's a natural fact but what's also factual is that because he chose to venture out to activities that had nothing to do with boxing (politics) he was intentionally minimizing his profit. His politics won't earn him a fraction of what he makes in a single fight. His politics earn him national appeal and approval but nothing more. Manny doesn't strike me as a dedicated politician at the end of the day, he strikes me as a guy that does what's expected and nothing more. So I think he'd make a terrible president of a country. If you can't manage the day to day operations of your own career, why are people supposed to trust you with the economic welfare of a country?

If in Manny's current situation he can make a lot of money, but fails to capitalize on his opportunities why should he be entrusted with the fate of a nation?

Google Marcos family for example. But it's no different elsewhere, even in Kazakhstan this local chieftain can buy the WBA Super LHW belt. If anything, 3rd world offers more opportunities for ill gotten wealth. Yeah no doubt he's not cut out for president, but I don't care much, being a boxing fan and not Fil citizen or political observer. Bush wasn't bright either, hopefully Pac gets advisers better than Koncz.

Your Bush point kinda nullified my "not bright enough to be president" rationale, good point. However I get this sense we're at the beginning of learning how poorly Pac managed his career and it could be scandalous. It isn't a crime to go broke or get KO'd, the problem as I see it is when fans act like these occurrences have no meaning.

should manny convert to buddhism?

Marcos was a much better politician than Manny, but he became a corrupt leader in the 2nd half of his reign. Marcos from 1966 to 1972 was the best Filipino President. Just look at his accomplishments ( Google it).

No, Manny should pray for the rapture, he needs outta this world quick before Arum completes his mission, before its too late. All buddhism would do is complicate Manny's economics....

Yeah I don't doubt he was smarter, he didn't get into politics as a boxing celeb. The point is he stole more money than Arum + GBP + Don King can dream of.

Whatever. The only novelty is that this boxer wasted his money on politics, and not coke, hookers, bling bling or betting. Rigo bought himself a Bentley or something, and HBO doesn't wanna pay his purse anymore.

Bush wasn't a smart guy but he kept smart people around him who like out for his best interest and he was awfully rich before being President. Who in Manny camp genuielly care about his best interest besides his wife.

Manny have plenty of leeches in his camp. I think Buboy and roach are the only real friends in Team Pacquiao.
