Choice between sports and money...

Given that choice, Aussies prefer sports. That is a comment by Our Man in Oz...

That is actually my fortune. I am hopeless at sports. I couldn't even beat my younger brother in badminton when I was little and he was sub-atomic. I only played in competitive soccer because if the team didn't included me, I take home the only ball in the community. It was mine.

Had more than a few Aussies taken a keen interest in their investments, I would have a hard time beating them at their own 'sports'.
