it is fair that sports celebrities make more money than other professionals

#sports #celebrities #money #professionals
The debate regarding the fact that
sports
 celebrities make more
money
 than other
professionals
 is a debate that always sparked controversy around the subject. In the present essay, I will present my views and my own opinion on whether it is fair or not that
people
 who win in
sports
 earn more
money
 than the
people
 who
work
 hard in other sectors. One could claim that it is correct for
people
 from the
sports
 industry to have more
money
 than other
people
 who
work
 hard because usually
sports
professionals
 win a greater amount of
money
 from advertisement contracts and from their
image
 and not so much from the sport itself. Compared to the majority of
people
 who
work
 normal jobs and earn only a monthly salary and maybe some bonuses and cannot really sell their
image
 or compared with entrepreneurs who need more clients for their products or services in order to make more
money
. So, some could conclude that it is fair that
sport

sports

professionals
 make more
money
 because they get to sell their
image
 so the
money
 does not come from the profession itself, but from other means, but there is
also
 the disadvantage that they have to be very careful on what they are doing in their private
life
. To be more precise, it is very easy to lose
money
 when their
image
 suffers from scandals. Another point of view of the debate sustains that it is not fair that
sports
people
 earn a greater amount of
money
 than other hard-working men or women because the
sports
professionals
 do not produce value for society through their activity. They do not create goods or services that make
people
’s
life
 easier. So the payment for their
work
 should be proportionate to the value they create in the world, which is pretty low, having into consideration that they only train themselves and participate in competitions.
Moreover
, a significant amount of
sports
people
 get involved
into

 scandals in order to make themselves famous and to earn some
money
 from ads and TV appearances, so again
this
 is not a correct way to earn more
money
 than other
people
 that have meaningful professions
such
 as scientists,
for example
. In conclusion, in my opinion, it is fair that
sports
professionals
 earn more than other
professionals
 because they do not get to have the ordinary
life
 that other professions get to have. The
sports
people
 have to commit to a special diet, everyday

 of competitions and they have to pay attention to their
image
 too, at what they do in their private
life
, in order to not lose the
money
 they make from their
image
. So, it is rational to say that their
work
 never stops. Meanwhile, other
professionals
 can have a schedule for
work
 and after that, they can do whatever they want in their lives and enjoy it how they would like.
