High Salaries of Sports Professionals vs Other Jobs

There is no hesitation in saying that celebrities like Suggested change: film stars and sports starsfilm stars and sports stars1film starts and sport starts are paid considerably Suggested change: higher amount of money thanhigher amount of money than2high amount of money than those who are in important professions Suggested change: such as civil servants, doctorssuch as civil servants, doctors3like bureaucracy, doctors and engineers.

Generally, Sport starts, apart from excelling in their game, they also Suggested change: entertain a large numberentertain a large number4entertain large number of people. This naturally gets the attention of the public and the media. So they become very popular. Commercial product manufacturers take advantage of this popularity and they use these famous personalities to promote their product by paying Suggested change: vast sums of moneyvast sums of money5ample amount of money. A great example for this is Sachin Tendulkar, A famous cricketer in India, who is treated as god of cricket. He acted in many advertisement films supporting numerous Suggested change: commercial brandscommercial brands6mercenary brands. Most of his income is Suggested change: from these endorsements rather than battingfrom these endorsements rather than batting7out this job than bating in the field. This proves that the celebrities earn more money by influencing society than doing their own job.

On the other hand, the main reason for the people in crucial professions are not paid as much Suggested change: as sports starsas sports stars11as sport starts is due to Suggested change: lack of public recognitionlack of public recognition12lack of identification. These people normally stick to their own job and most importantly the outcomes of their jobs are not entertaining. Also, media Suggested change: does not show interest in focusing on their workdoes not show interest in focusing on their work13doesn’t show interest in focusing their work. Even if a documentary Suggested change: is broadcastis broadcast14is telecasted on their achievements, people just watch and ignore it. A great example of this is Mr. Vishweswar, who Suggested change: was the chief architectwas the chief architect15was a chief architect of one of the major irrigation projects in India. In his project, the design of the reservoir is so amazing that it has Suggested change: become the key sourcebecome the key source16became the key resource of water for thousands of Suggested change: hectares of cultivated landhectares of cultivated land17hectors of cultivating land. Though his achievement Suggested change: played a major role in the eradicationplayed a major role in the eradication18contributed major role in eradication of poverty in south India by reducing the cost of farming, he was not paid any extra money for this. This proves that, people can’t become wealthy by helping the society.

In conclusion, I strongly feel that the attitude of the people should change. They should identify the real heroes. Every individual should realize that the people who give benefits to the society should get paid more Suggested change: than those who entertainthan those who entertain20that those who entertain them.
