Agent is pretty certain Phelps can make $100 million lifetime earnings - not too shabby at all. They did seem to make a lot out of the fact that he practiced so much (5 years straight, including Christmas). It is impressive to see so much dedication, but I am certain nearly every person in the water with him at those games put just as much time and dedication in to their performance (not everyone can win a gold, no matter how much effort).
I would be curious to see how much $$ guys like Lochte and Hansen are pulling in post Olympics. It would be nice to know that guys who only win 1 or 2 golds can still walk away with some reward for the hard work.
