Best Answer

An amateur Olympic athlete receives no pay for performing, but if he wins a gold medal in a popular sport his earnings are unlimited. The professional athletes such as the American Basketball players are rich beyond belief also do not get paid but the winning of a gold medal is all that is probably missing from their trophy case, so they should (and most do) take pride in their performances.
