As there are more and more amount of international events hosted, like the Olympic Games, whether or not it has added burden on national expenses spikes a heated debate. While some convey that it is one of the greatest chances to showcase the nation's qualities, others maintain that it does more harm than good to the country's finances. Given that throwing an international event does require a huge amount of preparation and that it brings fame by being a host, I utterly believe that the upsides of hosting international sporting events outweigh the downsides.
