I'm sure a lot of them are grateful to their parents for allowing them to take this path. People like Sumail and PPD bought houses for theirs.

Wings really were the best team in the tournament, well deserved victory. But their interviews sucked. Please give the viewers something other than the crappy standard answers, you tools.

A well-deserved win by Wings. I don't have much else to say. NO META!

for tax purposes wouldnt the best way be to incorporate a company and then eventually pay themselves a salary/dividend? xD

? How do you figure that? They won the money by being really good at a video game. It's no different than being really good at basketball. These kids spend probably 10 hours a day playing dota... every day. Their world skills are likely non-existent for the most part.

Taking care of your parents is noble. Nothing wrong with that. taking care of your cousins and childhood friends is when the problems arise.

yeah exactly. This happens all the time in the NFL/NBA. Ghetto kid gets a big pay day and blows it all on his ghetto friends. It's actually pretty sad.

You hear the same thing with lottery winners. People get a ton of money but don't budget it at all

Yeah, that's the funny thing about the lottery. It usually ruins the lives of the winners. It doesn't really need to exist

Well, by raw chance lottery winners are usually people who don't want to live.
Money just make their dream come true.

that's true, i just think it preys on peoples hopelessness.
But then again, in the states, they most likely have food in their stomachs, roofs over their heads, and a pretty free to do what they want for the most part, so if they want to play the lottery, well that's on them.

The difference is you can't play high level dota without being reasonably intelligent. Financial management isn't a difficult thing.

I wanted to say something like this but couldn't find a way to word it without sounding rude
I guess something like "The skills needed to succeed as a Dota player are much more conducive to good money management than those needed to succeed as a basketball/football player"

humans are creatures dominated by emotions, even the smartest ones, especially the young and inexperienced ones. Financial management isn't difficult, but still requires knowledge and experience that dota doesn't provide.
