In the same week that Prince Alwaleed complained to Forbes about not being high enough up its list of billionaires, a different sort of complaint was being made in an industrial tribunal in east London. Stella English, a former winner of Lord Sugar’s The Apprentice show, claimed that the £100,000 job she had won as a prize had been previously done by someone on a salary of a mere £35,000, making her feel an “overpaid lackey”.
就在沙烏地王子阿爾瓦利德•本•塔拉爾(Prince Alwaleed bin Talal)因爲自身在富豪榜上的排名不夠靠前而向《福布斯》(Forbes)雜誌提出抗議的當周,倫敦東部的一個行業特別審理委員會受理了一起截然不同的抗議。斯特拉•英格利希(Stella English)是舒格勳爵(Lord Sugar)真人秀節目《學徒》(The Apprentice)的前任獲勝者。她聲稱自己所贏得的年薪10萬英鎊的工作機會,先前是由一個年薪僅3.5萬英鎊的人完成的,這讓她感到自己像是一個「光拿錢不幹事的馬屁精」。
