▶ Your Answer :
Some people believe that it is unfair that
famous athletes and entertainers earn a lot of money, and they do not deserve the
large amounts of money they are paid. It is undeniable that the amount of money
they are paid is quite enormous. However, I believe that they deserve the
amounts of money they are paid. In the following paragraphs, I will explain why
I think this way in detail.
To begin with, famous athletes and
entertainers help people maintain mental health. Today’s people have various
duties to do, such as work, study, and keep their relationships with others, so
it is very common for them to suffer from stress. Because even low-level stress
can disturb concentration and cause mental illnesses including depression and
insomnia, it is vital for today’s people to manage stress properly. Considering
this, people can benefit from famous athletes and entertainers a lot. This is
due to the fact that famoust athletes and entertainers make people forget about their problems while they are
watching famous athletes’ moving and listening to entertainers’ talks. As a
result, they can avoid being stressed and relieve stress. My personal experience
can be a good example of this. Recently, I studied for my final exam. Even the
times when I was not actually studying, I was under severe mental pressure.
Therefore, I could not focus on what I had to do. One day, I decided to take a
study break and watched a basketball game of my favorite team. While I was
watching the fantastic moving and shots of Stephan Curry, I was able to lose in
myself without suffering from stress. In addition, after watching the game, I
became feeling better. I realized that If I had not watched Stephan Curry’s
play, I could not have relieved stress.
On top of that, famous athletes and
entertainers help people keep physical health. For today’s people, It is very
important to have strong immune systems because robust immune systems make them
be less susceptible to diseases, such as cold and pneumonia, which are caused
by viruses and bacteria. Therefore, It is very important for them to have
strong immune systems. In consideration of this, famous athletes and
entertainers can benefit them. This is attributed to the fact that exercise and
laughter stimulate people’s immune cells to fight more actively against viruses
and bacteria so that people can have stronger immune systems. Famous athletes usually
motivate people to do exercise like them and famous entertainers can make
people laugh. In this way, they can enable people to stay physically healthy. A
study conducted by Tokyo University shows this is true. Researchers performed
the study with people of similar health status. Half of the people were
required to watch famous athletes’ sports games and entertainers’ talk shows
regularly, but the other half were required not to do so. After a year, researchers
measured all the people’s immunity levels. The result was that, in general,
those who watched games and talk shows regularly had more active immune cells
and higher immunity levels, so it turned out that those people were more
healthy.
To sum up, famous athletes and entertainers
help people maintain both mental and physical health. In this regard, they deserve
to be paid a great deal of money.
