Kenyan Athletes spend about a month or two of serious training and from the recent IAAF they pocket about 8m. (from media reports).

Now if you got this kind of money within such a short period and with as "minimum" effort, how do you balance the investment and the desire to enjoy the loot?



or do you follow this link and spend all of it on shopping?

You go buy a second hand John Deer(sp) tractor and some fresians...

@bkismat plz take note of my quote and unquote on the word minimum.
second i wanted us to put ourselves in their shoes and have a debate on what you can do with such loot without loosing out on the desire to reward your ego with...say a lavish holiday
@layman..thanx for the correction..so what would you do...
@chaka..go on...

First, loot is "something appropriated illegally often by force or violence". I would not want to use this term in reference to the honest earnings of these hard working athletes. Second, I think anyone who works hard for his money deserves the right to do as he wishes with it. Whatever makes him happy; buy land, build a house, marry another wife, buy beer, buy a car, go on holiday to the Bahamas, buy stocks, buy cows, buy clothes etc. Pursue happiness the best way he knows how.
