Well, my opinion is that they're human... a person, after all. Someone with their own history and issues and life story to tell. I don't see much difference between sitting down with a homeless person to hear about how they ended up in that place, and sitting down with a CEO (if she or he has the time to pay you any attention) and asking about his life story. And I can almost guarantee you I'd be more interested in the homeless person's.
One thing I forgot to cite in my examples of notoriety-without-a-career: blogging. YouTube. The internets in general. As long as you can afford an internet connection (or you can find a place where it's free, like a library), you can become far more famous than most successful business people ever do. I think we're all well aware of that.
