Soccer's inflationary economics is simply good business in the current market - the real estate experience reminds us that bubble-economy behavior is perfectly rational until the bubble bursts. But there are certainly risks. The current combined debt load of the English Premiership clubs is about $12 billion ($3 billion owed by Chelsea and Manchester United alone).

Meanwhile, hotel companies are also finding ways to lighten your luggage load. Fairmont Hotel and Resorts (fairmont.com) partners with delivery service Sports Express to ship guest luggage and sports equipment to any of its worldwide properties. Dubai's Jumeirah Hotel offers an online "boutique" for items such as shaving cream and suntan lotion that you often can't carry on, thanks to increased security: order them before you board and they'll be waiting in your room when you arrive.

Applicants must have at least two years' post-undergraduate work experience, which is meant to attract older candidates who administrators believe will be better prepared to handle the grueling schedule.
