I think at salt lake city, the ski gold winner(from the US) made 1 million from mcdonalds after winning. I've heard some countries paying up to 1 million for 1 gold medal(I don't remember which one(s)).

In Canada most of the athletes don't make shit... but they get some deals to work part time at rona or some other kind of sponsorship that pays them so they can do sports full time. I think a lot of the athletes also study(university) at the same time. I guess it gets a little bit better when you win medals.
