"The 2022 World Cup is being held in the small Middle Eastern country of Qatar, in the desert. This World Cup is also the most expensive in history! Let's take a look at how much money was spent on previous World Cups!
In 1998, the World Cup in France cost $23 billion.
In 2002, the joint-hosted World Cup in Japan and South Korea cost $70 billion.
The most recent one, in 2014 in Brazil, cost $150 billion.
In 2018, Russia spent $116 billion on hosting the World Cup.
The recently concluded Tokyo Olympics were also in a similar range, costing approximately $130 billion.
Now, can you guess how much Qatar spent on hosting this World Cup?
They spent a whopping $220 billion! That's more than five times the combined expenses of the previous seven World Cups. Without a doubt, this is the most expensive sporting event in history. The amount of money they've poured into it may exceed the total spending of all previous World Cups combined! It's truly beyond what most people can imagine...
