Some people say that professional workers such as doctors, nurses and teachers who make greater contribution to the society should be paid more than those people in the field of sports and entertainment. To what extent do you agree or disagree?



Intro
(General Facts)
The high incomes of celebrities in the field of sports and entertainment have always been a matter of dispute and highly debatable.

(Paraphrasing)
Despite their significant contribution to the society, a group of individuals believe that professional workers like doctors, nurses and teachers should be getting higher salaries than these celebrities because of the larger contribution they make to the society.

(Thesis Statement)
However, I tend to think in the opposite direction. I deem that doctors, nurses and teachers should not be paid more than these celebrities. I have some solid grounds to defend my point of view.

Body – Para 1
1. To begin, it is implicit that doctors, nurses and teachers are making a huge contribution to society.         However, the contribution of these celebrities is also second to none.  They provide us entertainment and inspiration. Moreover, they bring name and fame to our country. They are role models for the society and people follow them and listen to them.

2. To add to it, they have a very short career span. Most of the people in the sports and entertainment field start their career at the age of 19-20 and retire by 33-35 years. Whatever these celebrities earn is during these few years and after that they face struggle. Of course, there are exceptions such as the great legend Amitabh Bachhan but such examples can be counted on finger tips. On the flip side, a doctor, teacher or nurse does not ever retire if he does not wish to.
For example, my uncle is a doctor and even at the age of 74 he goes to his clinic for two hours every day.

3. What is more, these celebrities sacrifice their personal life completely .They cannot enjoy the common things of life like the common man does. They are always followed by the paparazzi and their children too always need security. This is too much price to pay for the high salaries they receive.

4. Finally, people with natural abilities and special talents are exceptional individuals. For example, not everyone has the natural gift of dancing, acting or playing a certain game with a complete command. Therefore, these people need extra attention or special care. High salaries can be a big boost and fitting reward to their potential.

Conclusion
In the end, it can be concluded that high earnings of people in the field of sports and entertainment is completely justified.

(Opinion and suggestion)
Their services to the society are as imperative as the services of doctors, teachers and nurses if not more. No doubt, professional workers need to be given better remunerations but not at the cost of high income of celebrities.
