Well yeah, that's the whole point.
In other news, 100% of NHLers participated in (expensive) hockey programs throughout their childhood.
I know, I know... publically funded component to private education vs. discretionary spending choice by parents willing to shell out for hockey so lil' Johnny has a better shot at making the NHL.
But the point is, discretionary spending by parents on their children has is a clear cause and effect for the future of those children. Pay for hockey... Maybe make the NHL... Pay for ski lessons... Maybe make the Olympics... Pay for private education... Maybe become a judge. None of the outcomes are guaranteed - far from it - but if such a clear relationship can be drawn, can you really blame parents for making that choice?
