Athletes make millions per their regular salary, it is estimated LeBron James makes more than president Obama, my argument is about those athletes who make so much money and if they DO deserve it, I think they deserve every cent but some think this is an outrage to our society.

Just think these athletes, basketball players for example, don't just get picked, these athletes work so hard to get where they are now and are considered best of the best. Some people don't think its fair but personally I think everyone has to work hard to get where they want to be, so those people who say its an outrage to have such high paid athletes don't understand what heights these athletes went to for these jobs.

Athletes=
Lebron James: basketball
ranked the 3rd highest paid athlete this particular sportsman gets paid $72.3 million a year and gets $53 million dollars in endorsements and every time he gets paid (salary) its $17.9 million dollars.
Even though these athletes gain a lot of money, they also have charities that they would donate a certain amount of money to every time hey get paid of yearly
LeBron James charity is The lebron James family foundation, where he pays to educate kids in need of help and helps in loads of other ways.

Floyd Mayweather: boxing

Floyd Mayweather is The best paid athlete in the world, with a total yearly pay of $105 million american dollars, this athlete has been unbeaten in his boxing career for years now and is a world class boxer, you would not be able to win a fight against this particular athlete.

These two athletes may get a lot of money compared to the 100th highest paid athlete but even he gets $17.6  million dollars a year.

I believe these athletes work very hard to get where they are now, as i said earlier in the text these people are the best of the best and worked very hard to get where they are now, so I believe these athletes deserve every little bit.
