Depending on one's talent as a source of livelihood is a totally unstable job, especially if such talent is appreciated only with youth and beauty.
What happens when beauty fades and aging sets in? Certainly these talents most often when not used properly become liabilities.
Beauty titlists for example are offered jobs to endorse certain products ranging from beauty care line to car brands, not because of their brain but because of their face and title.
On the other hand, there are jobs that are associated with age, beauty and skills.
The younger you are, the bigger the commercial value is.
Some sports enthusiasts, just because of their passion for some sports do not see the hazards associated with their chosen sports or career.
Although some are financially well-compensated, others only receive training allowance that are barely enough to cover for food and training gears such that insurance coverage are not included in their priorities.
Professional dancers for example, who are mostly underpaid and underprivileged, do not have security of tenure unless they work for their own dance or art school.
Beijing Olympics Chinese dancer Liu Yan, who was part of the Silk Road dance, fell more than three meters up after other performers miscalculated her descent and landed on her head and back sustaining injury on her eleventh vertebra resulting to spinal and nerve damage.
The accident cost her career as she lost sensation from below the waist and down.
Gymnasts, with their dangerous turns and somersaults on the other hand, are leading a definitely dangerous career more than dancers do as the sport involves turning in a twisting motion up from the air and landing either on the floor or on tool bars.
With a little miscalculation, serious injuries can be committed that will possibly result to more life-threatening situation.
Mexico's pride and boxer Antonio Margarito, in his latest boxing match with Pound for Pound King and Philippines' Manny Pacquiao suffered a right orbital bone fracture which may possibly totally end up his boxing career.
Because of the constant force of blows landing on every boxer's head, head injury known as concussions are the most common problem.
Although boxers may not immediately show symptoms of neurological disorder such as gradual changes with regards to their behavior, levels of consciousness and slowed mental aptitude and motor activity and among others, may occur.
Boxers who showed neurodegenerative disorders of the nerves include Mohammad Ali and Freddie Roach who suffered from Parkinson's disease later in their years.
Both Roach and Ali, despite ending their boxing career had fall-back positions, where Roach as a boxing trainer and Ali devoted his life to being the representative of the government for its humanitarianism endeavors.
Starting a career as a boxer, gymnasts or dancer does not have to scare you to discontinue your passion as your destiny is different from others as accidents happen when you least you expect it.
Thus being prepared will only cost you a few hundred dollars for insuring your life, health and future compared to the thousand and even millions for hospital bills when worse comes to worst scenarios.
