I don't know much of how you get paid for competing on the Olympic circuits, is it all reliant on sponsorships or are the competitors paid a living stipend?

Or, am I likely to run into an Olympian working at Home Depot?

Thank you for clarifying. I knew a Slovak Olympian who taught in-between training sessions and competitions, but I assumed some compensation had to be provided. She didn't make much money teaching...

It must really complicate life trying to juggle money and training needs, especially before you make it to the level where sponsors are interested.

That really changes things in my mind. I think I see how focused and determined Olympic athletes must be.

Thank you again for sharing.

Depression is not too be trifled with, brother. Please talk to someone, it's helped me heaps.

My therapist told me that I'm full of self defeating, negative thoughts, and that actively working to correct them will work to fix any bad brain chemistry I have.

You really seem like a cool guy. Look around you on here. You're among many like minded individuals, and I'd gamble as lot of us have been through similar shit.

If there was collusion, it would be between Congress and the paid tax preparers. The IRS does not make the tax code--they only implement Congress's wishes.

Wow. That was weirdly awesome.
