Money management and the BBC...

It amused me (in an annoying way) to see that the BBC got fined £150,000 for the Jonathan Ross and Russell Brand saga.

As we all know, the BBC is funded by us, the license fee paying public of Britain. So in fact who is being fined for their stupid behaviour? That's right, US!

This is the equivalent of being at school where someone did something naughty and the teacher punished the whole class by making everyone stay back until someone owned up to the misdeed. Why we still have a license fee to watch TV in this day and age I have no idea. For the BBC it is a badge of honour having a correspondent in every city in the world, whilst for most of us it is just a waste of money.

If you want to learn how to run a business efficiently there are two things you should not look at as good models: the BBC and the government (and it's infinite departments).

It's true they should be made to pay it or else it is pointless
