But appreciate RBDs general concern about relative income ...maybe pitch Futterman a story about the working class pro who is really working hard and creatively to make it work?
That would be Cody Beals.
He stepped off into the deep-end 7 years ago, and has been quite open about his whole process - even documenting with spread-sheets, about how the whole business/professional side of it worked or did not work for him. How he was pragmatic, and stuck with it and now, after that 7 year journey he can kind of exhale a bit, knowing that he has built up a business, that is all about him - because that's what being a Professional Athlete in an individual sport like triathlon is all about.
I've interviewed Cody several times, and what has always struck me about him is that pragmatism - it's worked out well for him. Look he's not driving a Mercedes around, but he's now earning a good solid and sustainable income from his chosen sport!
