[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't get this... How does excelling at sports pay the bills when you're in your 30s and beyond. Sure, the top 1 percent of athletes will do well...but what about the rest? I get how golf can help in business and sports knowledge can be a social lubricant...but does it carry over through adulthood? [/quote] How does being good academically pay the bills? There are countless stories of stellar students who can’t get jobs, have been laid off, or don’t make a living wage.[/quote] Life skills are important too-- which along with decent academics and a reasonable career choice, can help pay the bills.
