Fantastic breakdown! You explained the economics behind the World Cup so clearly—super easy to follow :)

Just curious, do the host cities get any long-term benefits from hosting?

Good question. Economically, almost certainly no. Are there benefits from pride, etc. from hosting a game? I imagine yes, although how long they last … who knows.
