Sure they work a lot, but it doesn't seem so bad if you can make it to even the lower end of these salaries (but ofc most don't). And why would they give up education? At retirement they should have a nice bankroll to support any studies with if they want that. On August 09 2010 01:36 Lightwip wrote: Didn't Hyuk say in one of his interviews that he made $50k? Not quite sure about these figures. Rest could be bonuses, especially last year when they won PL they probably got a lot more than that basic salary | ||

And when they do finish that, they can usually find good work for the company they played for | ||

I'm guessing that he probably has a 1 year or 3 year contract that was set while he was still performing well. It's not like they can just cut his salary the moment he starts losing games. | ||
