What could you buy for the price of Bale?

Think about this: Real Madrid are seriously considering purchasing a player, wages not included, for an amount that could send over 3,300 students to Harvard - with full tuition - for a year.

Tottenham have valued their prized star, Gareth Bale, at 100 million euros. Tottenham’s stadium, White Hart Lane, holds just over 36,000 people. But the price of Bale equals 46,612 of Tottenham’s most expensive season tickets (£1,845 in 2012).

Perspective forces the question: what do you think about the notion of an athlete - not even including his salary - being worth an amount like this?
