Professional Soccer Player 

Being a professional soccer layer you have to train really hard get in shape and put in as much work as you can on the field. You have to keep training getting better and better so that scouts and managers can see your talent and want you to play for them. You win games and get noticed more as you keep getting better , thats when the big teams start looking at the amount of talent you have. 

A players salary depends on the contract they sign with the club/team they're joining, and it depends on how good or how much talent they have to offer.. For example, some players may get paid less than the best player in the world. Cristiano Ronaldo, who has won 5 balon d'or's gets paid 400,000 Euros per week. 

Education can help in soccer but most of the players i know that are some of the best players in the world didnt really go to school, they came from poverty. In some cases education may help , for example learning languages because of the places you travel to in the world to play.
