Pele poses with some of his awards

At 75, Pele has seen it all and enjoyed it all, including an acting career and a turbulent relationship with women. Now, he is more concerned now with enriching his legacies by motivating the young ones and helping the poor.

I don’t think his problem is money, like some people suggested, or relevance, as argued in other quarters. He enjoyed these in abundance. Giving the world his footballing memorabilia will impact several lives and transform destinies. One can only wish the old man peace of mind and continuous service to humanity.
