I would not agree with that. I think it takes a lot of talent - and work, and savvy, and luck - to become as successful as Penn. Most actors deserve their big bucks - at least no less than big ballplayers do.

But it seems that when they see their images on the screen, and when they admire their own success, they fall in love with what they have to offer to the world - outside their chosen profession. And this is where a little humility would help... but some of them instead turn arrogant - like Sean Penn - and use their high visibility to push their ideas, which often happen to be pretty superficial and ignorant.
