THE RIGHTFUL PLACE OF PAYMENT
There is different payment for different jobs; the jobs that require massive amount of intelligent and hard work are more likely to have a higher salary than other jobs. But one of the main problems of payment is between solders and most sport entertainers: football players, boxers, golfers, tennis players and so on.
The average salary of a military soldier is £20,511 per year.
Regular officer pay. You'll earn a salary of £25,984 while you train. This rises to £31,232 when you are commissioned as a Second Lieutenant. If you're still serving in the Army after five years you could be earning at least £40,025 as a Captain. The highest, decent, salary is if you get a promotion of captain which is extremely difficult.
But for footballers, it is a different story. Footballers are making much more than they need to. Regular officer pay. You'll earn a salary of £25,984 while you train. This rises to £31,232 when you are commissioned as a Second Lieutenant. If you're still serving in the Army after five years you could be earning at least £40,025 as a Captain. The 4-year minimum base salaries for rookies in this year's draft are as follows: $450,000 (Year 1), $525,000 (Year 2), $600,000 (Year 3), $675,000 (Year 4). If eventually signed to a contract, each rookie drafted will get a 4-year deal, whereas undrafted rookies are only eligible for 3-year contracts.
The basics of football are to run and kick a football into a goal, but to have the courage and dedication to become a soldier is absolutely mind blowing. People need to open their eyes and change where rightful place of money should go to.
