April 17th, 2008 — Palestine
Update: How much money do Olympians make? It depends on a lot of variables: whether they come from rich countries or poor ones, whether they won medals during the Games, whether they compete in the popular sports events, and many other factors.
Anyways, I’ve been blogging about this question for sometime now and I think it’s a good idea to put together the separate posts I’ve made into a single one. This way, those of you who are googling “How much money do Olympians make” will see the bigger picture without needing to go through all the previous entries.
