I don’t understand the entertainment business - and by entertainment I mean actors and athletes. Let’s do a little calculating.

The typical person works from 18 to 65 years of age - a total of 47 years.

There are 2,080 hours of work per year for a full-time worker, or 97,760 hours of work during their working lifetime.

If someone were to earn an average of $20/hour (not a bad wage!), they would earn a little less than 2 million dollars over the course of working a lifetime.

Professional athletes keep saying they are worth more than 2 million a YEAR because they risk getting injured and therefore they can’t keep earning for the rest of their life.

I say “so what?” Working only one year, they have earned more than many people earn during a lifetime. Why do they believe their life is more valuable than the guy who struggles to feed his family by working at the local supermarket?

Same goes for actors who complain about making less than 2 million per film , or half a million per TV episode.These people do not provide any VALUE to the world other than entertainment. And they whine besides!
