Celebrity Karma Theory

What if the thing that enables celebrities to be able to enjoy a life of luxury more than anything is their karma for entertaining millions of people by bringing them joy through whatever they're famous for? Music, movies, television, artwork, inventions, etc.. all the things that they created and participated in that resulted in the happiness of others is what actually made them rich and happy and famous. Any time you do something that gives others a good feeling will result in you being rewarded by something happening that enables you to enjoy life more.. whether it's an ability or just an enlightenment.

You could be right!

Obviously it's as unsafe to generalise the famous as it is to generalise anyone, but there are two strong drives there. One is being creative, the other making so many people happy by their work.

I separate the two motives because clearly such people love being creative or at least skilled in performing other's creations; but very few actually achieve any fame through it. For them the making or the performing is what matter even if purely as amateurs with very limited audiences.

That so, perhaps the fame and money are a bonus.
