In reading these two very revealing pictures, one understands that there is a very lucrative market in the Olympics. However, the majority of substantial profits are made by, as one might expect, the body that governs the Olympics, the IOC.
It is interesting to note in the photo above that after the Olympics end, there is an experienced decline in national GDP in all Olympics between ´88 and ´04 in both the year of the Olympics and the following year (the one exception is in Montreal for the year of the Olympics).
