Which means to say athletes like Li Jiawei and Ronald Susilo are multi-millionaires? Considering all the gold medals they have won for Singapore!!!

How often do these event take place? And how big are you chance of getting first? Thinking of it, let's say, event take place like once every 2 years, you will earn that amount in 2 years, and what are your chances? What if you fail to get it in 10 consecutive years. YOU WILL DIE OF HUNGER!
Js, these athletes are paid a good basic salary too, in case you do not know, they won't starve.
And, its all the games. There are such games every now and then. SEA, Asian, Commonwealth, Olympics....
