What about a hundred million? Believe it or not, these sums are actually below some early reports of whatâs been on offer to a few marquee players after Saudi Arabiaâs Public Investment Fund (PIF) took over four of the Saudi soccer leagueâs biggest teams this month.

The rhetoric of chaos and terror is what most Americans are taught about Haitians and Haiti.
