That guy is set for life if he plays his cards right....
1. Motivational/Corporate speaking circuit
2. Book deals
3. Endorsements for swim gear
4. His own swim academy/school
5. Trainer/coach/consultant for future Olympic teams (hopefully just for the USA)
6. TV analyst for swimming
i read yesterday that his swim regimen includes 50 miles a week. holy crap. That guy deserves every bit of success/fame he is tasting right now.

I read yesterday that with his endorsement deals he currently makes roughly 5 million a year. If he breaks the record that will triple.
