Sportsmen and sportswomen are paid far more than they deserve

Every day, millions of people wake up early and go to work hard to feed their families. They work to bring a benefit for society. On the other hand, there are the famous sportsmen and sportswomen. All of them look for options to reach their goals . They are talented and they make a really big effort to reach their positions but, do they deserve millions and millions of dollars just for playing a game? Why must entertainment be so expensive? Do they work harder than us?

Perhaps, to solve the problem, we must think first about what are our criteria to value a person´s job. If we focus on how much money these sportspeople are able to produce by filling stadiums or appearing on TV commercials, perhaps it is fair to think that they must earn such quantity of money. But if we ponder the benefit for society with their activities, I think that we shouldn´t spend too much money on sports.

I personally think that it is a very unfair situation that some people earn in one hour more money than others working hard in their whole life. Sportspeople earn that money just for playing games in a grass field, kicking or throwing balls, running or jumping, what do we want it for? Do we really need to see other people playing stunts? Why can´t they do a more productive activity?

We must consider that the power and money of that people is the power and money that we let them have. It is the common people who fill stadiums, spending their money on sports. Since we are free to decide how to use our money, the decision about if sportspeople are paid far more than they deserve depends on each one of us.

My score: 15

  2. Hi Alejandro.
    I enjoyed your article because I could feel the sensitivity of your words. I just would like to make a suggestion about the supporting ideas. I would add other paragraph about the inequality of salaries. Very good job

  3. I think is good your ideas and the form in which you present them, but may be you generalize the idea of all the sports because not all of them are over paid, may be you could be more especific in some aspects, but I think your text is good, your vocabulary is good..
    good luck bye

  8. I like your work because you give strong reasons for not thinking that is fair the salaries that those people get. I agree with Enrique in the way that not all sports are well paid, there are others that are actually overlooked. Your work has valuable ideas that catches the attraction of the reader, but maybe you need to reinforce your arguments, in order to keep the attention.

  18. Hello:

    I think that your essay is good, you gave good points of view, I think that you showed your ideas clearly, but still I have a little observation.

    I believe that your introductory paragraph goes directly to the main point and didn't gave us an overview of the ideas that you developed in the body of your essay, it looks as another paragraph and looks as if you had omitted the introduction.

    Thats all. Gabriel García
