I think MaxDalury or RayOfHope is the biggest winner of all time.
Both in the 3-5 million range.
Then obviously there are the guys who win the big 2 million dollar tournaments but I wouldn't really count them as that is just a lottery.
Obviously like anything gambling/market related, most people come in below where the zero sum is.

If that guy could only play 1 lineup, he probably wouldn't win shit..
I love playing people heads up .
I put in 1 lineup last week in the $ 3 , $ 100,000 for first contest. Scored 217 points and won $ 9 . Finished 13,000th place .. Its not that easy to score 217 points, but couldn't sniff a top prize
Never have played nor do I have any interest to. No one can convince it isn't rigged or can't be rigged. In gambling, you know the line beforehand. In fantasy, you don't know the other lineups. You can't convince me that the employees, their friends, computer whizs, etc., can't flood bigger pools or even past post. Saying that, I have a friend who did win $13000 on afternoon baseball two years ago. I assume he's lost that back.
NFL is definitely fun, I think that is something that will always remain popular if the legal picture stays the same. It just lends itself to a lot of fan engagement, the player pool for NFL is so big you can get in tons of different games, etc
NBA is pretty much work though. Similar to the time needed to put into trading stocks or options. Player role/injury fluidity really changes fast since there are games every night, I don't know why anyone would find this fun. I enjoyed it at first but now I pretty much just do it because it's a hard way to make easy money. I'm a big NBA fan but there is nothing fun about being at your computer at 6:45 waiting to see of Bradley Beal and DeMarre Carroll are out so you can deploy their backups.
MLB I can't comment on too much, I don't follow baseball at all or find the sport entertaining. I do know it lends itself well to DFS because you can stack lineups in tournaments pretty easily and lineups are released hours in advance so you don't need to keep up to the minute injury info. Just isn't my thing and I'm not going to play something just for the hell of it cause I'd just lose.
Golf is actually huge in DFS. But I don't play that either. A lot of people seem to like it though.
Fun is very subjective. Some people find blackjack, slots, the lottery, scratch tickets or craps fun, I don't know why, but they do.
