Really? So since it obvious then that mean yuh should be able to provide examples, right?
Please explain how Jack can approve a budget as Minister that will be "symbiotic" to financial concerns in FIFA... and yuh free to choose either his real or hypothetical portfolio as you offered it. Everybody making conclusory statements about what "obvious" and what not. Nobody really offering examples.

Um sure,,i'll play
Scenario uno
FIFA wants to hold a tournament in some country that requires significant expenditure
Jack tells the oter fifa dons he happens to know a carribbean island that will be willing to lavish great sums to host the world….their per diems, perks and reputations as global ambassadors to the sport will be well rewarded.
It just so happens Jack is sports minister, so he has a meeting with himself and through some shrewd negotiations the VP manages to convince the minister that spending millions on stadia and advertising will benefit his country,, although the limited budget should have been for other uses within the country
The obvious part is where jack benefits as a 3rd party concessions for the tournament, perhaps tourism charters etc. y 'know wild scenarios that have never happened before
Scenario 6.5?
Fifa wants top hold a tournament in some country that requires significant expenditure on infrastructure…expensive rails , newly built highways for teams to travel across the country etc etc
It just so happens Jack is minister of works……the budget should really go to fixing the countrys secondary and tertiary roads
But the fifa vp manages to twist his own arm and agree to spend lavishly on highways and light rails etc.
The not so obvious part is where jack simply aligns himself with any local or foreign contractor to build said roads and trains and negotiates a certain fee…IF the ministry awards the job to them.
Of course anybody who believes that wont happen probably believes vince carter could save any team he does play wit.
Ahhh,,I see what you did there BnS you put the word symbiotic in parentheses to underscore my use of the word….you're a shrewd one BnS nothing gets past you….clever clever
