With many countries in the world facing financial difficulties, there is greater focus on how much money governments are spending on Olympic athletes or Olympic-related events.

Raising eyebrows, Italy's $182,400 payout to any Italian who wins a gold medal. That's the highest payout in the world.

The British press has raised questions about why a country that is struggling to cut its spending would be so generous. With four gold medals so far, Rome is on the hook thus far for almost $730,000.

In second place is Russia, paying nearly $135,000. Third is France paying $ 65,200. In the host country, Olympic athletes receive zero, meaning British cyclist Bradley Wiggins, and rowers Helen Glover and Heather Stanning, all of whom won gold for Team GB will get pats on the back, and hopefully more endorsements.

China reportedly offers $31,400 to gold medal winners, while Japan rewards them with $35,900, Canada gives $20,000, and Germany, just less than that, at $19,500 for a gold.

In the U.S., gold medal winners get $25,000, $15,000 for silver and $10,000 for bronze. This is not government money, it's paid by the U.S. Olympic Committee.

Potential GOP Vice Presidential candidate Senator Marco Rubio (R-FLA) has sponsored a bill that medal winning U.S. athletes shouldn't have to pay taxes on the money they receive.

Taxes on a gold medal could run as high as $8,986, while silver could be $5,385. On a bronze metal, the tax might be $3,500.

Amateur swimmer Missy Franklin, who is still in high school, will owe $14,000 in taxes for her gold and silver medals.

中国的那个数估计只是国家体委的奖金。地方政府要慷慨的多。再加上企业和爱国华侨的资助，据说超过150万人民币了，那是25万美元啊。这和endorsement可不是一回事。

意大利的数字也只是意大利政府的数字。
米国的数字只是米国奥运会的数字，资助商的不在其内。

广告大大的有，当然不是每项都有。
估计中国也一样，如果小叶不爆吃药闻，肯定会有多多广告收入。

有什么两回事？
只要是进账，就都是收入。来源于我何有哉？
