Outside of the injury risk, driving horses is an extremely lucrative profession. (for top drivers)
You have $0.00 overhead, except a car to get to the track.
When you've made it, it's a fucking cash cow business with no financial risk.
YOU CAN'T LOSE !!!!
Every employee on the earth has zero overhead.
They're paid for the talent and some risk, and mostly all on performance, there is no guaranteed paycheck typically.
Stealing is an absolute payment. A $20,000 purse win they see about $500 before taxes and other fees. Take down a fixed race for $50,000 if they're a 20% winning driver that's 500 less drives on average for 1 staged race.
When you try to sound smart, wow

You know nothing of these guys finances, habits, if they're into bookmakers, if they're just pathological, be silent little mouse!
