I think you are worth monetarily what the market is for your abilities whether it be your brain or your athletic talents.

However as a society, too much emphasis is placed on athletes and celebrities outside of their arena of expertise as entertainers. Their money and exposure gives them their voice and people should rarely champion them outside of their specialty.

That’s what they are.... entertainers and our western way of life allows people so much time that we have to filled it with entertainment 24/7, 7 days a week. But to say an athlete making 40 mil is worth 100x as a heart surgeon making 400k a year is nonsense.
