[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, the thing I don't get is doing this for soccer. Great, so they get an MLS job for a few years. Then what? It could make sense for basketball or football, for rare athletes.[/quote] Investment banking, dentistry, and consulting to name a few: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/soccer-insider/wp/2018/03/03/they-were-top-mls-draft-picks-but-when-their-soccer-dreams-changed-they-walked-away/ I think you underestimate how attractive a pro sports career looks on a resume (at least a career in a sport that doesn't typically lead to traumatic brain injuries). A lot of former pros go into finance, marketing, or commercial real estate, but the short answer is that taking a few years off the traditional career path treadmill to play sports is as likely to be a career booster as not, regardless of which direction you want to go in.
