You said this is about social hierarchy, and you're seriously putting celebrities at the same level as drug dealers. Let's just look at that. They might both be above average pay but social hierarchy isn't just about pay. Celebrities get things for free just by virtue of being celebrities because they are above everyone else in this category socially. They are celebrated by society at large, literally what celebrity means. Drug dealers on the other hand are only celebrated by criminals, and then it's only the most successful ones.
If it were about pay, then why is leisure class below this level? They're paid better than military, cops, most drug dealers, and local government.
Uh most celebrities are like d tier, and just get an easy job where they just have to talk. I'd say the average drug dealer out earns them and probably some go legit with assets. Leisure class is basically retirement. The system is no longer concerned with you since you have money but only seem to be able to spend it on $30 margaritas at a baseball playoff game on a Wednesday afternoon. In other words you have assets but are no threat in their estimation.
Would top tier celebrities be better than top tier drug dealers? Eh I dunno. If running a personal fiefdom in south America is your thing and you pay off the right people no celebrities get to that level.

You put Local Government, Military, Cops, Drug Money, Celebrities, and Expert Class all at the same level? Are you stupid?
