Berlusconi warns Di Benedetto about investing in soccer.

Yesterday the president of A.C. Milan/ Italy warned future the owner of A.S. Roma about the risky business that is European soccer. The Corriere dello Sport reported that Silvio Berlusconi jokingly commented on Thomas Di Benetto's decision to purchase A.S. Roma. Berlusconi said that even Di Benetto is destined to find the same difficulties of everyone else who has invested in soccer.  Berlusconi said, "In soccer you spend a lot but you make nothing."  Sounds to me like someone is shaking in his boots. Most of the responses to his comments tend to have the same theme: Berlusconi has bigger things to worry about.  Between his weekly sex scandals and annual no-confidence votes, he certainly does have other things to worry about. My advise to Berlusconi is that he should mind his own business. He is the richest man in a country that is struggling economically. He should never complain about money. If Roma becomes a consistent championship contender in the next few seasons, the money will come.
