>Even athletes who do make it pro are often fucked over by the teams they play for, agents, financial advisors, etc., and a lot of them still end up poor, especially if they are more of a roster player who only manage to stay in the league for a few seasons.
Yes, but that is supposing they would not end up the same way had they not played. Also there are lots of people would love to earn 55K to play soccer.
Lots of people actually pay for the privilege to play normal people in their same city...

For most it seems likely to be a net loss, but try explaining that to a teenager who only wants to consider the moonshot of making it big.
