Argument About How Much Money Athletes Get Paid

Have you ever wondered if do athletes get over paid. Well there some people very angry that some athletes get paid then some cops and firefighters. Even tho most of the athletes donated about 3,000 dollars to charity per months. And they well paid for some of their internment. And they said that they use money for dumb or things. Like humans they have to pay for stuff to like they have to pay for air travel. They spend money on like airplanes travel to games. Also they have to play for plane rides to

Firstly, ninety- five percent of athletes do not spend their money charities. The athletes waste their money on tattoos, exoctic animals, expensive watches, vactions, cars, moustous houses, and many other expensive gadgets. Athletes blow millions of irreverent items, when they could donate to children who are suffering from cancer. Chemotherapy can cost up to $30,000 in eight weeks.

Ever dreamed of being rich and famous? A google result will tell you something quite obvious, athletes make boatloads of cash.They are doing what they love and are earning lots of money at the same time.Sure they make a lot money , but is it true? Not entirely. In fact, some athletes are paid less than what a regular job would pay you.

The fact that most professional athlete get paid more than the president is crazy. Why are professional athletes paid so much? One of the reason for that is marginal revenue. Marginal revenue is the additional Revenue gained from selling one more unit. So, every time a consumer demands one more unit, the Firm sells one more unit and the revenue goes up by exactly the same amount equal to the market price. Basically, the players produce millions and the get a nice paycheck for their contribution because the labor profits the owners and anyone else who depends on the team success. Marginal revenue does not change as the players produce more output because the amount paid is determined by supply and demand and does not change as players play more.

Most professional athletes don’t give their time or money to help troops, poor countries, or for better education of children. Maybe once or twice a year a couple of athletes get together and build a playground or have some sort of sporting activity in their home towns. Even these activities don’t take place very often.

With all that money they need to donate half of it to better causes. That money could go to charity, or help homeless people eat. Some athletes have the heart to donate their wealth to better causes, although some don’t. Pro athletes should be good role models and help those in need.

Although there are many athletes that spend money on frivolous activities. They could be spending on the kids that don't have no shoes or that are starving to death and have to walk to school barefooted because they can't afford shoes. The should donate money to them and stop sending it on frivolous activities.

Professional athletes, especially NBA players are criticized harshly of their high salaries because many people feel they don’t deserve it for what they do. They feel NBA players aren’t contributing anything valuable to society. Many people can’t stand that NBA players are paid millions when teachers, doctors, lawyers, or other professions are making thousands. People feel that NBA players do nothing more than playing a ball game. There is a lot that they do that people are unaware of so a lot of people just assume all they are ball players. People need to understand that NBA players are paid millions for a reason, and they are deserving of it. They have to go through a lot physically and mentally. They are contributing to many areas of our society and people don’t

Many people grow up having the dream of being rich in sports. They practice as hard as they can, and If they are just good enough then they get to play professionally. They don’t realize how much work and how much really goes on whenever they are a star athlete. The athletes in professional sports should get paid what they deserve while playing professionally.

Many athletes do not know how to use their money wisely. To start off many athletes do not even know how to cash a check! People give them so much money that they don't even know what to do with it so they waste it on cars or houses. Next many athletes spend it on things they don't need. Why do you need 8 cars or houses? Last week many athletes went bankrupt just after 2 years retirement. So much money you think it could last longer. In conclusion athletes

So it would make sense that these people deserve salaries that put them above everybody on the wealth scale. These people are required to spend a large amount of money and time to get where they are, so why do they make just a fraction of what athletes make? To be more specific, an average doctor has to work everyday for 76 years to make what professional boxer Floyd Mayweather makes in a single fight, even if he loses. A backup quarterback may never play a single snap in a game but he still will make three times as much as surgeon on average. If that isn't enough, how about the fact that in one week the Brooklyn Nets starting five players make just slightly less than all nine supreme court justices make in a year. There is no doubt that athletes do spend just as much time and money, if not more, as those who have professional occupations, but it all comes down to what each occupation group really does for the country. Our country simply could not function without people like Doctors, Surgeons, Engineers, and government officials, and while we may think we could not function without sports, we could. So why should a occupation that does nothing but entertain people make much more than the people that keep the country

Athletes are role models and contribute money to the public. For instance, sports idols are the only things that stand between ghetto kids and a drug life. Also, pro athletes set up and go to camps to teach sports and life skills. Lastly, athletes don’t spend all the money for themselves (house for mom, charity). Professional athletes are good examples to kids and they give to/sponsor charities.

A Lot of athletes donate their money to charities. Most athletes donate a large amount of their money to charities. Some athletes start their own charities.

Athletes get paid a great deal more than people how save other people’s life. Athletes usually don’t work as long as other do. Many althea’s get injury by playing sports. Athletes usually help others that are less forehent. It’s not ok for athletes make million of dollar a year in a game.

"Professional athletes are making too much money in a society where salaries and wages are traditionally based on the value of ones work" ("Professional Athletes”). In today 's society, one is not actually paid more based on the economic importance of their occupation. Instead, those involved in the entertainment industry get paid larger salaries than those shaping the future. In the 1996 basketball season, Michael Jordan made 170,000 dollars a day, whereas an average teacher will only collect 40,000 dollars a year (Professional Athletes). The salaries of athletes do not directly reflect their roles in the world. Professional athletes only play a small role in the entertainment industry their careers do not affect what will become of the
