"Some professional sportspeople make more money than doctors, teachers, and nurses.". Why? I think there are many good points to say that, but there are also some points against this speech too.
First, some professional sportspeople may be more popular than doctors, teachers, and nurses. They have a huge fan base and they can make money off of them. Because of that, they may be invited to do advertisements to attract customers, from which they can make money. There are some more professional sportspeople, they can sign contracts to play for other teams and they can also make a ton of money from it.
Second, with a large number of doctors, teachers, and nurses currently, the salary received from the state is very small. As for professional sportspeople, they can get paid from different sources, making it easier to earn money.
But there are some people who disagree with the above idea that because they consider the profession of doctors, teachers, and nurses more important, so they have to earn more money.
In short, in my own opinion, I still think that some professional sportspeople make more money than doctors, teachers, and nurses because they are more popular and have more fans.
