Yup
Got that right man, entertainers-- sports, music, movies-- make a fortune based on their unique talents, and their ability to distract us from the sometimes grim realties of our own lives. The folks that actually make our own lives happen-- teachers, coaches, nurses, techs, cashiers, and the guy or gal that hauls your trash, well, they are at or near the middle bottom of the wage pool. I don't deny the talented admiration for their extraordinary abilities, they are indeed marvelous and make life a bit more tolerable, but I owe everything I've got to a few teachers, coaches, and the trash guy who makes my life, and home, a better place.
