=> Speak your answer in 60 minutes.

I don’t think professional athletes earn too much money.
There are only a small number of athletes who become successful in professional sports or competitions.
They must have worked harder than others to be better and competitive to earn fame and fortune.
Also, the time they earn a lot of money isn’t as long as ordinary jobs such as an office clerk, hair stylist or bus driver because of the physical limitation.
They need to make enough money not only to pay for their effort and performance but also for their retirement.
Professional athletes deserve to make enough money for their effort and life.
