That's kind of a silly comparison (musicians, athletes, and I'm not sure what you were reffering to with "people who play dress up").
All your looking at is the very, very small top percentage who make millions and are famous. The majority of athletes and musicians don't even make enough to make a living, and work full time jobs to support their lifestyle.
Also, most of those proffessions you mentioned aren't full of people "scraping by on meager wages". I don't know who you've met, but anyone I know in the services you've listed do okay, and definitly aren't "scraping by".
