Fred Goodwin pics currently worth more than Britney Spears

By Dominic wireposts

The first picture of shamed former Royal Bank of Scotland boss Sir Fred Goodwin enjoying his millions could be worth £30,000, according to Evening Standard picture editor Dave Ofield.

“He’s currently worth more than Britney”, Ofield tells The Guardian.

Photographers are staking out all Goodwin’s various homes in the hope of capturing the arch-villain of the credit crunch.

According to one news journalist, Steve Beech: “If he breaks cover he’s going to have snappers and TV cameras following him as if he’s Michael Jackson.”
