Can Osaze live on that monthly?

Those guys have made good chunks of money during their active days. Were there no investments made?

Look at Yakubu that has been playing for decades, why is he still punishing himself doing what he is doing at his current team?

...there are many retired people working as door attendees, example at walmart, do you call them punishing themselves? If you have the ability to draw extra income, great, go for it.

You can't put ball players in such brackets. They are high income earners who don't have to augment their incomes like the older folks working at the Walmarts of the world.

I am well aware they earned the bulk of their money very fast unlike others who build their wealth over time. Financial education and proper post-career planning would have helped.

While one can sing the patriotic hymn and call for them to sacrifice..the truth is our clubs back home lack the basic requirements to lure one that has played at the some of the best clubs and best leagues back to the local scene. There is simply nothing to motivate you,nothing. The question need be asked what happened to the ones that went back? They slipped quietely their contribution or lack of it not mentioned anywhere. Seriously why risk your life ? Yes it is that drastic when you realise the wide gulf in conditions they have to cross.

A simple trip from Enugu to Maiduguri on our death contraption called road os enough to make you ask yourself serious questions and question your motive for putting yourself through hell at a time when you should be winding down.
Enugu to Maiduguri, Oloye? How about ordinary Aba to Port Harcourt?

But what this story tells us is way bigger than soccer. It is about Nigeria today. Footballers are running away, and it makes news. Many less-visible professionals return home often to die, physically or otherwise.
Na only footballers? Everyone wey dry sit tight for abroad dey enjoy light ND internet connection plus wages on time ns Erin you think say dey keep you there? Abeg make we no even look far than our nose
PaJimoh, you misunderstood me. Perhaps you didn't finish reading before you wrote. I said, "Many less-visible professionals return home often to die, physically or otherwise."

Meaning: Nigerians other than footballers.

We always here and read a player making 200k a week, so so and so, including those that make 10 grand a week which is never a chump change.
How much of that huge grand is actually his, and after all the taxes and deductions and agent's pay.

I don't know what a typical baller's salary is. But I do know they earn more than their friends on a typical pay.

Here is what I found on Osaze:

https://constative.com/celebrity/osaze- ... and-salary
Osaze Odemwingie Net Worth, Family And House
He owns a house in France, Paris, Fulham Road in London, a mansion in GRA Benin and also in Vitoria Garden City, Lekki, Lagos State Nigeria. Osaze Odemwingie is married to Sarah Fallon, they had their white wedding on 26th of May 2012, at a church in Northampton after two years of dating.

Osaze Odemwingie current weekly salary is £28,846 and his yearly salary at Stoke City is £1,500,000. Osaze Odemwingie net worth is estimated $5.5 million dollars. This estimation is based on his past salaries and what he has earned from his past clubs and the salary he earns from playing for his country national team.
You can tell me what Engineer, Medical Doctor, Lawyer or Business owners make that much in a week. Never mind the bonuses he gets/got as well.

...great, with such big pay days comes big responsibilities, reason why some want to keep playing to augment what they have. In oyinbo land people pay property taxes yearly and that can be huge depending the house location and worth.

TBH, these are individual decisions that are mostly based on earning a living. Oasis earning career is possibly no more than 20 years may be less while most of us will have far longer. For me, they should continue to play for the money as long as they can and someone is willing to pay wherever.
