Money is not my motive – Beckham

David Beckham insists his move to LA Galaxy is not financially driven.

The 31-year-old will earn a reported $250m over five years after agreeing to leave Real Madrid for the Major League Soccer side at the end of the season.

The deal means Beckham will be earning 500 times more each week than most of his team-mates at Los Angeles.

But he said: "I didn't want to go there at 34 years old and for people to say he's only going for the money. It's not what I'm going out there to do."

he also said that aliens are living among us, he and ‘posh’ were very good friends with elvis, and met regularly in a restaurant in real madrid, richard simmons work-out videos were all the rage in britain, and that he was 110% positive that la galaxy would make it to the very top in international competition…

since you've opened your mouth, why don't you set up and donate the money to charities if you really want to be taken seriously. otherwise, nobody on the planet is gonna' believe you.

after all, it's what you do in the shirt that counts.
