ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF HOSTING THE OLYMPICS The Olympics is one of the most important events worldwide. Every four years professional athletes from all over the world face each other is different competitions. For the competitors it is a dream to win a gold medal at the Olympics and sing their nation’s anthem, showing the world what they are capable of. Winning as many medals as possible is not the only dream that nations and athletes have when it comes to the Olympics. Many people want their country to have the opportunity to host an edition of the Olympic games. But, others believe that international sporting events of this magnitude might bring more problems than benefits, specially if this event is hosted in a developing nation. Hosting the Olympic has many advantages, one of them is the economic benefits. A country which host the Olympics will see how tourism and economy benefit from the event, because an event of such magnitude will not only attract athletes but also tourists and media who will give free publicity to the country. Also, investors will be interested on investing their money in the city, and this will help crate jobs that can revitalise the economy. These jobs will not only be for the three weeks the Olympics last but for all the years of planning. Besides that, an important event can create excitement and interest for such spectacle. This can promote sports through the country and volunteerism which encourage a civic attitude in the population and this will definitely have social benefits. However, there are also significant disadvantages when hosting the Olympics, one of them is the cost. To host a major event like this can cost lots of money, and this money will not be given but the investors, it will be paid with the taxes. This lead us to another disadvantage, the taxes will dramatically increase. People know that this might happen but the taxes often increase more than expected. Also, many facilities that are specially built for the Olympics will never be used again or they will never get proper maintenance. Of course, this depends on what the local government plans to do to increase sport practicing and the use of this facilities. If things as planned and expected the nation can benefit from positive publicity, but if things go badly it can cause the opposite and not many people will choose it as their next destination. The conclusion is in the comments :)

ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF HOSTING THE OLYMPICS

The Olympics is one of the most important events worldwide. Every four years professional athletes from all over the world face each other is in different competitions. For the competitors, it is a dream to win a gold medal at the Olympics and sing their nation’sal anthem, showing the world what they are capable of. Winning as many medals as possible is not the only dream that nations and athletes have when it comes to the Olympics. Many people want their country to have the opportunity to host an edition of (not required) the Olympic games. But, others believe that international sporting events of this magnitude might bring more problems than benefits, especially if this event is hosted in a developing nation.

Hosting the Olympic has many advantages, one of them is the economic benefits. A country which hosts the Olympics will see how tourism and the economy benefit from the event, because an event of such magnitude will not only attract athletes, but also tourists and the media who will give free publicity to the country. Also, investors will be interested on in investing their money in the city, and this will help create jobs that can revitalisze the economy. These jobs will not only be for the three weeks the Olympics last, but for all the years of planning. Besides that, an important event can create excitement and interest for such spectacle. This can promote sports through the country and volunteerism, which encourages a civic attitude in the population and this will definitely have social benefits.

However, there are also significant disadvantages when hosting the Olympics, one of them is the cost. To host a major event like this can cost lots of money, and (this money will not be given but the investors) (I don't know what you were trying to say here), it will be paid with the through taxes. This lead us to another disadvantage, the taxes will dramatically increase. People know that this might happen, but the taxes often increase more than expected. Also, many facilities that are specially built for the Olympics will never be used again or they will never get proper maintenance. Of course, this depends on what the local government plans to do to increase participation in sports practicing and the use of this these facilities. If things go as planned and expected, the nation can benefit from positive publicity, but if things go badly it can cause the opposite and not many people will choose it as their next destination.

Many of the metropolitan cities have been eager to become the host of Olympics for different reasons since Olympics revived in the last century. Despite many cities nowadays are still desperate to win the privilege of holding Olympics, I strongly believe that the benefit of holding the event exceeds the downside for a city especially the citizens in a city do not really understand what it means by holding an international event.

Tracing back the history of cities that held Olympics events, there is no denying that most of the cities were immersed in heavily debt few years after they had held the international event principally because the local city council and its citizens over expected the benefit that the event can bring out. Accordingly, I consider that cities inclined to take the event had better think twice before they lodge their application.

However, some other governments or cities have totally different angles in favour of holding the event aside from the financial issue. For example, China held an Olympics event just a few years ago (sorry, I cannot remember the exact year) not that they need the event to proper their economy literally, but just because they need this event to show off their pride. Different point of view can bring about a totally different result.

There is no absolutely good or bad with reference to the Olympics event , but the matter of fact is that the city and its people had better think in depth before they decide to take up the honorable mission at a cost of huge loans.

Once they have solved all the problems they have now they can host a major event like this without worrying about the disadvantages this might bring.

My wording--->

As long as citizens in the city can really weigh up the gain and the loss of hosting Olympics with deep thinking, they would have no fear of all consequences that be brought by this event. .

In conclusion, everybody wants to have the privilege of hosting the Olympic games, but they also want their country to be well prepared for it. In developing countries, the idea of hosting the Olympics is a dream. Developing countries want to show the world their cultures and all they can offer. However, there are many aspects they need to work on, like improving the quality of education, health and infrastructure. Once they have solved all the problems they have now they can host a major event like this without worrying about the disadvantages this might bring.
