Why wouldn't Charity Organizers have a need to be famous? You might need a certain level of fame to deal with bigger celebrities to get them to cough up the Simoleons for your projects, for example, or maybe even to get them to make a public appearance in order to attract donors. I have a casual friend who owns a talent booking business and does a lot of bookings for charity events (celebrities showing up for golf tournaments and such); he's a former major league baseball player and has been able to use his moderate fame (mostly on the local level; he played for one of the local teams back in the 1980s) to attract retired athletes to sign up with his agency as well as to get clients to hire folks from his agency. I don't want to see any restrictions on who can and can't, or who should or shouldn't, become a celebrity.
Wouldn't that be utilizing your fame from a previous career path to leverage your current one? Doesn't seem like he got his fame and was using that fame for being a talent agent/charity organizer.
Regardless I do agree there should be zero restrictions on who (or what) can become famous, but I do however want an opt-out option to prevent practically everyone from eventually becoming famous in some way.
