Greetings
I was reading the thread on the age of male swimmers and the mention of the pro status made me wonder how much these men and women actually make. Anyone have an idea of the income levels of the top men and women in the sport and how many actually are making a living in the sport?
Thanks

Speedo offered him $1 million dollars.
Some of these Olympic swimmers are making good 6 figure incomes a year from their endorsements. I wouldn't mind swimming 4 hours a day and a few hours of dryland work for a few hundred thousand a year. Don't forget, they get stipends for making the Olympic team and money for medaling at World Champs and Olympics. That is the dream life.
What did Amanda Beard get for posing for Playboy? When you do Maxim/FHM, you don't get paid for those magazines.
