Even if an Olympic athlete does not go home with a medal, they’ll be going home with a bunch of free gear from Nike and other brands. Similar to entertainment events like the Oscars (where one of this year’s gifts included a $55,000 trip to Israel), Olympic participants receive a swag bag with a bunch of goodies to take home. This year, the men and women get about 40 items from Nike, listed below. Also remember that all U.S. Olympic athletes have their flight and accommodations in Rio paid for by the U.S. Olympics Committee.

10 short-sleeved shirts for men, 6 t-shirts for women

4 long-sleeve pullovers for men, 2 for women

4 pairs of workout pants for men, 2 for women

2 pairs of sandals for men, 1 pair for women

3 pairs of athletic shoes, 2 for women

2 watches for men, 1 for women

2 pairs of underpants for men, 2 sports bras for women

2 drawstring bags for men, 1 for women

1 water bottle, passport case, wrist band, and duffel bag, 2 caps, and 4 pairs of shorts for both

3 pairs of workout leggings, 4 tank tops, 2 warmup jackets, and 3 pairs of socks only for women

1 pair of sunglasses and weights only for men

As an added bonus, Olympians may soon be able to keep more of their prize money thanks to a proposed bill for tax relief. For U.S. atheletes, a gold medal translates to $25,000, while silver means $15,000 and bronze $10,000. Olympians must currently pay a portion to the IRS along with a tax on the metal in the medals. But with the Olympics now top-of-mind for those around the nation, this could be changing for the better.

即使运动员在奥运会上没有获得奖牌，他们还可以得到耐克与其他品牌提供的各种免费装备。与奥斯卡（其中一年的礼物包括价值55,000美元的以色列旅游）等娱乐活动类似，参加奥运会的运动员可以把一份大礼包带回家，里面有各种精美的礼品。今年，运动员们可以获得耐克提供的40件物品，清单见下文。另外，所有美国奥运会运动员在里约的机票和住宿，均由美国奥委会支付。

男运动员：10件短袖衬衫，女运动员：6件T恤衫

男运动员：4件长袖套头衫，女运动员：2件

男运动员：4条运动裤，女运动员：2条

男运动员：2双凉鞋，女运动员：1双

男运动员：3双运动鞋，女运动员：2双

男运动员：2只腕表，女运动员：1只

男运动员：2套内裤，女运动员：2套运动文胸

男运动员：2个束口袋，女运动员：1个

男女运动员各1个水壶，1个护照夹、1根腕带和1个行李袋，2顶帽子，4条短裤

仅为女运动员：提供3条运动紧身裤，4件背心，2件热身夹克和3双袜子

仅为男运动员：提供1副太阳镜和1对哑铃

另外，作为额外的奖励，根据一项减税议案，奥运会运动员很快便可以保留更多奖金。美国运动员取得金牌，可以获得25,000美元，银牌为15,000美元，铜牌为10,000美元。目前，奥运会运动员必须将奖金的一部分向国税局缴税，另外奖牌金属也要缴税。但如今奥运会成为全体国民最关心的热点，因此这种情况或许会有所改善。（财富中文网）
