Episode 53 is about money in sports - more specifically, everyone’s favourite word, taxes!
When we look at the business of sports, it’s easy to get fixated on the glamorous life of athletes, player contracts, sponsorships, and lifestyles of these individuals. However, when we take a step back, the owners behind many of these teams tend to be the big fish that remain hidden.
This episode will uncover some of the secrets employed by these owners, and will use details from the analysis performed by a Propublica article titled: The Billionaire Playbook - How Sports Owners Use Their Teams to Avoid Millions in Taxes.
We hope you enjoy!
