: Why do celebrities make more money than teachers?
I am planning on becoming a teacher in 3 yrs. Freshman in college..and I’m just wondering why do celebrities make soo much more money than teachers when teachers are the ones that contribute to society and it’s teachers that make celebrities who they are. Even if they didn’t go to school, someone had to coach them to make better basketball shots, or read lines of a script with more enthusiasm.

Even though this is true, celebrities earn their living by bookings and endorsements. Bookings, meaning, they get paid for showing up for a particular show or event. Endorsements are commercials, whether in the print, radio or TV media. They are better known than a teacher so that therefore means they’ll have more fame which in effect; cause them to cast roles in movies, do advertising, go on talk shows, etc. From this point(when a person is considered a celebrity), many companies will be wanting to invest in him/her causing them to make more money than the average working class person.
Depending on his or her career, a celebrity can make up to $ 50,000,000(50 million) per year while an average person works to earn around $ 65,000 a year.
