Abstract

Many people strive to be professional athletes because of the respect and accomplishment it receives. You make a lot of money, it can be glamorous, you are in commercials and magazines, and sometimes even movies. However, there are some things people do not think about when it comes to professional athletes. One of the biggest is taxation! There are so many different things athletes must think about and do because of taxes so they can take home the most amount of money possible. Athletes must be careful about who they hire to help them with their taxes because they want to be sure they get someone who will help them get the most out of their money. So many things come into play when someone is looking at taxes for a professional athlete. Athletes can be taxed for the games they play in different cities, for their endorsements, commercials, etc. In other words, athletes pay taxes just like you and me, it is just much more complicated.
