London Olympics Should Come In $600 MILLION Under Budget!

The London Olympics and Paralympics look like they might be costing $600 million less than previously thought!
That seems absolutely ahmayzing until you learn the total projected cost of the games is still $14.2 BILLION!
So they originally thought it’d cost them $14.8 billion. So it’s a win, sort of.
Unless you knew that the original amount they planned to spend was $3.8 billion.
So they spent three times as much. Big deal.
The 2008 Beijing Olympics cost $67 billion!
We think London wins this one!
Way to be frugal, London!
