Agreed. In my opinion, no one is special. We all are responsible for our own actions. When Charles Barkley said that he wasn't a role model, I think he could have better said that he wasn't any more of a role model than any parent, teacher or fireman.
In business, my role models are a telemarketer and a former DEA narc that I know. Every time I do what I think they would have done in a situation, I generally make money.
Personally, my role models are my father and one of my college professors. I aspire to be more like those two guys ever day.
I think that people are often confuse the terms "role model" and "idol". We don't look for celebrities to be role models, even when we're kids. We idolize them. There's a difference.
