In my earlier post today, I omitted at least one significant problem affecting
recrutiment of the rich or famous, viz., they usually face an exacerbated form
of the problem of "What will the neighbors think?"

If they are still active, they have constituencies. If they are in business,
they may not want to risk the displeasure of directors or colleagues or
stockholdes or customers. If they are in entertainment, they may not want to
risk loss of fans; if in politics, voters.
