for thought, FIFA has a staff of 300. there are 250 million people
playing association football worldwide.

I'm not really sure what you're trying to prove with that example. During
the time period from 2011 to 2014, FIFA had a net revenue of
$5,718,000,000. That's right, five billion dollars. Their budget surplus
during the same time period was 338,000,000. (

)
They may have a small staff, but they certainly are rolling in financial
resources... so, what exactly IS the point of that example? It seems
rather apples to oranges to me. FIFA is a direct support organization in
support of a particular fandom (and a poorly managed one at that).
