What kind of money do professional international basketball players make?

What kind of money do professional international basketball players make?
I am wondering how much players can make playing overseas or in places like Mexico and Canada. Also, what is the competition like in these areas compared to NCAA D2 and D3. Thanks for NO HELP everyone. First of all Allen Iverson doesn't make 45 Mil/ yr. He just got a new contract for 76 in 4 yrs. Simple math is 76/4 = 19/yr. Also, I know Mexico and Canada are not overseas, that is why I clearly said in places overseas or in Mexico or Canada. Hence the 'or'. They also don't play for their food, there are other places in the world that are civilized. I am glad Yahoo answers has turned into a site of illiterate idiots talking out of their a** to try to sound important.

Kevin Garnett makes about 21 million dollars a year. Shaq makes about 20 million dollars a year. Kobe Bryant makes about 18 million dollars a year.

Well, first off, Canada and Mexico are not overseas, and secoundly, you get paid by how much they think you deserve, how much potential you have. There is no fixed salary. And Kevin Garnett doesn't make anything compared to Shaquille O'neal and Allen Iverson--25 Million a year. (KG makes 18 Million)

they don't play for money, they usually play for food or their freedom. so that makes the competition fierce, which is why they play so much harder than americans.

There is a very wide range there. First of all if it's something you want to do get into - there are agents that represent guys that are looking to go overseas. In some places they play for very little - and it's not entirely rare to get screwed by a team and never get your paycheck - especially if you don't have an agent. Another thing that makes it more difficult is that most of these teams only allow 2 Americans per squad, but I think they are increasing that number. There are also different levels over there - just about each country in Europe has at least 2 or 3 leagues. Players on the lower level teams probably make about 20-30,000 a year (for about 8-9 months of work). In the upper levels, the amount can get up to above 6 digits, but even the best American's that start out over there have to work their way up the ladder. Also, there is an incredibly high turnover rate for players - i know of several good D-1 players that have been dropped by teams. Overall, I would say that the most of the American's playing over there are generally D-1 or D-2 guys that were either all-league in smaller conferences or just normal players for big-name schools.

In my part of the world, Eastern Europe (specifically the Balkans), the star player on the team gets a good $300K a year. But don't be fooled by that number because you can do alot more with a dollar in Eastern Europe than you can in the United States. A person who's payed $300K in east Europe can live like a millionaire in the US. When it comes to competition, I don't know how to compare because of the different style of play. Think about this, one of the better Bosnian centers is entering the NBA draft this year and he's expected to get picked late 2nd round. That might help you. Then again it depends where you want to go and what style of play you prefer. In Germany you'll get paid more than in Poland but the competition is greater so the pay has to be better too. I hope I answered your question, if you have any questions about basketball in Europe, just ask me and I think I can help.

Are the Hispanic immigrants from Mexico really doing better in America than they did in Mexico?

Are the Hispanic immigrants from Mexico really doing better in America than they did in Mexico?
I read somewhere that the people who immigrated to America from Mexico are living basically the same way they did in Mexico. Most are doing similar jobs than they did back home in Mexico but are making more money here. But their standard of living and way of life is pretty much the same because even though they are making more money in America, the cost of living is so much more here, so it is a wash. Then what did they accomplish in coming here?

I broke myfoot last week, i cant get out and work and now im completly out of money. How can I earn $$$ ?

I broke myfoot last week, i cant get out and work and now im completly out of money. How can I earn $$$ ?
I need help ! I was in the middle of trying to start my own buisness so ive already begged stole and borrowwed all i could just to survive these last months. and now last week i slipped and broke my foot. im already 3 months behind on my rent. to make matters worse i am 2500 miles from home with very little friends or family and i barely speak the language here. I dont have anyone else i can turn to.I dont even have anything i could sell for money. Are there any ways i could make money online that would pay off right away ? what about begging for money online is there anyway to do it ? I got deported last year from the U.S. , i grew up there and dont even know anyone in mexico. im trying to make the best of it, i dont drink or do hard drugs. i have had some limited success w/ a small buisness but need a bit more time and of course $ before it really allows me to live on it. I just spent my last ten bucks on groceries. I have 2 days to come up with 3 months rent. [$300] any ideas??? its not a scam. i tried taking my laptop to the pawn shop and they wouldnt evem take it cause it was too old. my service is still on because its not in the U.S. I live in Mexico. in otherwords I live in bizzaro world, where nothing ever makes any sense. belive it or not I was told that they wont even stop service on the cable/internet w/o a payment. can you belive it. so I guess if I never paid it would just run and run forever. I dont know but check out the website if you think im lying. its called axtel in tijuana,MX. anyways im just hoping someone will donate whatever they can to a real person in a real life emergency crisis. unless i come up w/ $300 in 2 days me and my dog are going to be on the strets of tijuana where i know absolutely no one. if i could come up w/ $1000 it would be a life altering amount of money. I know whats its like to have extra money. Alot of people could help me and never even realize it was gone. but i could pay my back rent, and buy an oven for my buisnes isnt there anyone that would help me ? would this ever work, or not. mabey what if i could prove to people i really broke my foot and have nowhere to turn ? i see people donate $ everyday t o pat roberts and its so obvious its a hoax. why not a real person ?

ask a family member if you can borrow some money and tell them why and have them wire you some. I am sure they will understand

nice scam! Try someplace else. If you're for real start by selling your computer. That'll get you at least $300.00.

But you can pay for an on-line connection. The guy before was right, nice scam. sell the darned computer.
