Will they be able to charge what they have been charging in the past few years? I mean you guys in the US will not have much money soon.
Hence the US market is totaly fucked, US will loose it's space as a leading country in the world, maybe it's time to have the next MR O in  Europe?

They can charge as much as they want, as long as it's dollars. The dollar is basically worthless.

Bodybuilding is a fringe sport; like other fringe sports, the cost of travel and food will render these sports extinct.  I'm betting you are going to see a much smaller audience at the Olympia this year.  It's just too damn expensive to travel and people aren't making enough money in the first place.

the economy is definitly on shaky ground.  europe will be far from insulated though, if the US collapses.
norway could be a good spot though, they have a ton of money, small population though.
