Why do athletes deserve high salaries?

Athletes deserve to have high salaries because they work hard to get where they are now. Sports might be the only thing they are good at. But if you played a sport you would know how hard is it to get where they are now. Its not easy to be a pro it takes years of practice. Some even start when they are around 6 years old. Some would say that they should get paid that much amount of money. Some say that because athletes don't risk their life's but they certainly do so. I know that firefighters risk their life's and they should get paid more than what athletes earn. But they also work hard like any other career.

What would we do with out professional athletes?  Professional sports these days are constantly watched on the television 24/7 by sports lovers.  Once the athlete is drafted out of high school, or college they immediately attend to the professional league’s team.  The hard work and, commitment that they have been working for almost all of their lives finally pays off.  But is their pay too much?  This blog is going to explain how much it takes to be a professional athlete, and if their salary is really what they deserve.

Many think its unfair that these athletes deserve really high salaries, how do these athletes get so much benefit?In my point of view, they deserve the high salaries. Initially, they have enormous stress. physically, mentally and emotionally. One example would be swimmer Michael Phelps, who won countless gold medals ad world records, and has trained swimming since he was 6 years of age, he works not only based on his talent, but also his hard work which is not be accepted by us. He pushes himself so hard and has a little amount of rest even when Christmas day falls on his schedule.

Beside, high salaries are essential for sportsman because they can only get their high salaries in a short period. When they get aged, when they have no more energy to training and win, they will lose their benefits. Compared with our ordinary people, how can work throughout our life, it is not that unfair.

Some people argue that while teachers only provide service to a single classroom, superstar athletes are entertaining fans all around the world. Many certainly think so. Furthermore, police officers, firefighters, and doctors risk their own lives for a fraction of what sports stars make. While i truly believe that making it in to the pros is not easy, and that takes hard work and dedication to earn a job in professional sports.If these athletes want to continue to be rewarded with the fame and fortune that is upon them, they must prove to the world that they are gong to be positive role models to the future athletes, and those who admire them.

While researching  my topic on athlete salaries i found many different perspectives. Some people had many different opinions, some were negative and others had positive opinions.

I would say that most children in the world dream of becoming professional athletes. And that is true for most young boys. Everyone wants to score a goal, hit a home-run and win the game. How does it affect our society and businesses?Sports are one of the biggest markets in the world and involve a big part of the population. Sports open many jobs and entertain. Like sports agents, field managers, and of course the athletes. Every athlete wants to be the best and work hard to earn high salaries. So are athlete salaries a problem?
