i think you are right .docters get very less payment and fame in comparision to an athlete.this question often comes into my mind too,i think a docter saves the live of a person which is the greatest work in this universe while what does an athlete and an actor? in comparision to that he only entertain us.so this system is faulty atall.
but i think that the main reason of this might be that the rule makers think that an athlete gives fame to his country therfor he desearves more than a docter.

I can say that it is indeed true, Doctors here in our country are paid very low that they are already migrating to other countries to seek greener pasture. I think that athletes are paid higher because of commercialism in such games. Being famous means getting paid enormous amount and a lot incentive. The only doctors which I think is gaining for popularity and gaining millions of payments are those in cosmetic surgery. Here in our country doctors in such field are gaining more than millions more than what the athletes are gaining. I guess its really depends on what type of field you are in. Most in demand doctors are those in cosmetic field of study.
