Justifying Celebrity Earnings.
This third weekly edition made me read up about some celebrities yesterday and I wasn't surprised with the amount they earn through streaming, live performances etc, truly, celebrities like the actors, athletes and artists earn way higher than even the teachers and doctors. It is the data we burn just to keep ourselves busy with the fun and entertainment they earn from.
Being a celebrity isn't an easy feat as many of them worked their way through it. Something I got to know is that celebrity comes with the expectation of wealth and a lifestyle so lavishly. You cannot be a celebrity without having money because you will be taxed in all ways. I think in this scenario, I would say celebrities are being charged with all of these more than teachers and doctors. People are weighed based on their status.
To keep up with the glamorous life, celebrities had to diversify their sources of income to keep up with enjoying their lives in the best way. This is why you see and hear of most of them having side hustles alongside their professional careers. One wouldn't blame them for earning too high because it is what they have made efforts on right from the beginning, they worked their ass off to get to that feat. This is why you see a lot of them charging higher to perform on stage.
The reason why they earn more income is that the advent of technology has made more ways available for celebrities to generate money such as streaming online services. For example, when they perform a show on YouTube, they make more through the advertisement that keeps popping up and we are talking about millions of dollars here.
Another reason they earn higher is that, it is not the government paying them. I watched a movie yesterday where a celebrity was asked to take her picture for a cream advertisement. This deal is what makes companies pay higher because they know featuring a celebrity's face on a product would make higher sales.
Teachers, they are earning too low compared to their efforts to make the best out of everyone who chooses to be educated. Companies don't pay teachers because they aren't public figures like the celebrities are. Look at the celebrities we have today, who taught them to be who they are today? Teachers, but they are being paid lower. Something we should understand here also is that the world is now a digital one where everyone can make a living just like any other person aside from their career. Depending on a source of income wouldn't get to anywhere, this is why celebrities are making more money and this is because of their side hustles which make them keep their life balling. It is why having digital skills is the best in our world today.
Doctors are also doing a great job too and it is to save the lives of many people who need the utmost care. Teachers made the doctors and these celebrities, Doctors treat everyone including teachers, athletes, artists, and actors. But they are also paid lower. I think what should be done is to make the payment structure of teachers and doctors fair enough instead of the little meagre given to them while also letting the celebrities breathe. I guess it is in my country these two professions aren't paid well and it is the reason most of them leave for greener pastures to another country so they could be well appreciated for their efforts.
The government should focus on the non-celebrities too and be concerned more about them in making sure they enjoy their pay while working to ensure the best for everyone.
Thanks for your time on my blog.

Being a celebrity was hard just like other jobs so they deserved the amount of money that they earned but it was really sad that doctors and teachers became underappreciated to the work that they do that sometimes, they would go to other countries were pay was better.
You are right. The celebrities worked for their money, so they should be left alone. Though teachers and doctors aren't appreciated well, the government should do something to raise their pay and make it a fair one. Thank you, Saydie.
The thing is that, no matter how Government will increase the pays of these people, celebrities will always be on top because celebrities are not stationed on salary from Government or one company. Their money grow like grass from many channels. And all kudos to the celebrity's personal effort
You are very right. Celebrities will always earn more because of how they diversify and increase their income more than what teachers and doctors earn.
Your call for review of teachers and Doctors renumeration is a good one. Government has to do something.
They have to do something. Thank you for reading.
Celebrities work a lot and I won't say what they are earning is unfair. It is their work that feeds them and made their accounts as large as they are. The teachers and doctors are the responsibilities of the either the government or the organization that employed them. Of a truth they are really doing very well but those who employ them don't appreciate them as expected.
Yes, teachers and doctors are doing pretty well but are unappreciated when it comes to payment of salary. No one should blame the celebrities because they worked for what they earn. Thank you for your comment.
I think celebrities are earning what they deserve. I don't compare their lifestyle with doctors and teachers because the effort of three profession is different from each other.
You are right. Their professions are different and they don't get paid by same people. The government and companies(private) pays the teachers and doctors while the celebrities are being paid by companies who hired them to get their brands make sales and the likes.
