Interesting debate but I think that most of us live to our means....when I was a high earning manager we holidayed in Hawaii and Dubai, last year out of work and cash was tight so it was a couple of days away in the staffordshire moorlands, this year back in regular well paid work and its a couple of UK holidays, next year hopefully we will be financially stable enough to go overseas. Just happens that Rooney is an extremely well paid footballer and at the end of the day its his cash to spend how he wants

No never bought a celb mag ,dont even buy a newspaper,,,!

But some of our mother,and probally mothers on here are dunfounded at what some spend on an ordinary wedding, today with lots of extras,,5 grand can just about get a very good wedding,,,,more you can have something spendid,,,20 grand can give you a wedding talk of the neighbourhood,,,,,,more can give you one talk of the town,,,,,,,,,and even more you can be talk of the world,,

How much was spent on the pomp of many Royal weddings,,,,plenty of poverty about then,,when they could have gone down the registry office,,,,,

To most of us who dont live in grand style,,,,its outlandish beyond belief that a wedding bill can run into millions,on what,,??but hopfully some of the good donation and charity work many behind the scenes arent forgotten,,,,,,
