Take for exampe Kilo racing; he had to stop racing different events because he couldn't keep up with the expenses. Kilo actually had the oportunity to return back to FL after each race, and take care of his bussines. Imagined those PR racers who spend two weeks in US once or twice a year.
It gets very expensive.

If they don't work on their bussines, they don't earn money, if they don't earn money, who supports their family?, the sport? and it keeps going.
