Watch: The Olympics and its financial distress | Explained

An independent study expected Paris to generate between 6.7 and 11.1 billion Euros in net economic benefits for hosting the Olympics. Other than that, 8.9 billion euros as net economic impact. Tourism was expected to contribute 30% towards this economic impact, construction activities 28% and organising the games itself -- 42%.
The 15 day-long event was expected to witness anything between 2.3 and 3.1 million unique visitors with game tickets. Some 64% of them French, as per the study.
While it all looks amazing at the top, a brief look at the history of how Olympics have panned out financially in the past; have an altogether different story to tell.
Which cities actually gained from hosting the mega event? Which was the most expensive Olympics? Have mega venues turned into white elephants?

One country in each of the continents where the existing infrastructure permits them to hold the Olympics should be the idea forward. Start charging a nominal fee from the other participating countries so that the hosts are not at a loss. International events are important for future generations.
