Answers:
The man is making a fortune playing for his club. He plays on his national team at the highest level possible for his chosen vocation. He sacrificed a lot of things to become one of the best in the world at his trade.

I would hardly call this a buffoon. Choices were made in pursuit of a goal.

Let's see.who else can you call a buffoon, simply because they dropped out of school:

Albert Einstein
Thomas Edison
Orville and Wilbur Wright
Andrew Carnagie
Ted Turner
Dave Thomas (Wendy's)
Henry Ford
Steven Spielberg
H.G. Wells
Jimmy Dean
Andrew Jackson
Leon Uris
Jack London
Ansel Adams
Count Basie
Danny Thomas (Congressional Gold Medal Recipient)
Walter Nash (Prime Minister of New Zealand)
Freddy Laker
Charles Chaplin
Rober DeNiro
John Llewellyn
Horace Greeley

It would seem to me that formal education serves purpose for many, but it's completion or lack of completion has little to do with someone driven to succeed.

Hardly a buffoon..

Now go eat your sour grapes.
