Lewis Hamilton. Avoiding People or Tax.

by wisty8golf @ 2007-10-31 - 14:13:20

Lewis Hamilton is off to Switzerland because he cannot
have a pee without someone in the next stall asking for his autograph. If thats his only problem in mens public toilets, he has nothing to worry about.
Why do people spend half their lives seeking fame and once they have found it, spend the second half avoiding it.
I recently have seen many examples of Lewis at PR events, cutting ribbons and shaking hands ( all for a fat fee, I'm sure) If you want a private life , be private.
You dont have to be a genius to suspect that there might be 4 million tax reasons for his decisions.Why do the "I want to be alone" brigade always choose a low tax country. Those who can afford to pay the taxes always manage to avoid paying them.
Lewis ,you have just fallen in my estimation.

Good topic for discussion. Because people from non-famous backgrounds like Lewis Hamilton don´t ´know´ what living with fame is like it comes as a shock/unknown quantity when it does even though he´s been prepared for it by Mclaren. Sure you´d swap places with him for his job but what about all the extra stuff that comes with it - like the fame and pressures of it and losing your anonimity? Also bear in mind that it´s only by what he´s done on sunday afternoons that have left him in this situation now. If he´d had a season like Jenson Button´s he´d probably still be able to walk around fairly unoticed. Just my $0.02
