[QUOTE="GTNavyNuke, post: 37907, member: 322"] All major sports comparison [url]http://ftw.usatoday.com/2013/10/average-career-earnings-nfl-nba-mlb-nhl-mls/[/url] MLB 940 players making average of $3.39M per year [url]http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/10158314/mlb-average-salary-54-percent-339-million[/url] NFL "worst paid major sport" [url]http://www.businessinsider.com/charts-expose-how-badly-nfl-players-get-paid-2013-9[/url] All of these sports pay very well, but not enough for most for a lifetime considering agent fees and taxes and inability to be "frugal". GT offers one of the highest salaries coming in at 11th in the country. But that is "only" career earnings of $3 to 4M (depends on length of time worked and increases after starting slalry off $70K/yr).

GT is hard and makes you work so you do better for the next 50 years (not 40 for them) of your life. 5 years of work for 50 years of payoff.
