Your argument is either disingenuous or in bad faith.

Their point is very clear and you have not presented a good counter-argument.

Excuse me? I stated a fact. The person I was replying to started by implying that elite sports people want to be rich. The article is about elite sports people being below the poverty line. These are two separate things.

If someone is an elite sports person they sacrifice a huge amount to get where they are. They are paraded around by TV networks, media, their government, their team/association. I’m pretty sure all those people benefiting from the personal sacrifices and hard work of the athletes aren’t living below the poverty line.
