[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What’s in it for the Russian skaters post Olympics? I assume in the Communist era, it meant securing your family’s future. Now, what does it mean? It’s not like Russia is a booming market where they could have a future in endorsements (like Eileen Gu)? Or do they? What are the prior Olympic medalists doing now?[/quote]
Mega rich and/or mega powerful Russian men marry them.
Exhibit A: Putin’s current wife (not skater but close). Exhibit B: Putin’s press secretary’s current wife (skater).

And I am only half kidding.

In any rate all three Eteri girls are getting medals from Putin. No kidding. [/quote]

Curious how you know so much about the Russian skating system? [/quote]
I’m the PP and I don’t know much about the Russian skating system. I just follow the news from Russia a bit. Peskov (the one with the ex-skater wife) has already “held a press conference Friday where he defended the ROC’s coaching techniques for all of its winter sports”. Can you imagine Psaki doing the same? [/quote]
