Buying stock in people: The Future

Question

Does anybody see the future of investments move into people.  If people were able to buy stock in celebrities, television stars, or musicans  they liked, or thought had potential to be the next big star.  If the person you bought stock in when you were watching them on your local sports show becomes the next Stuart Scott you would get a dividend of some sort.  Could be pretty ridiculous but definitley not impossible

There is a form of this in the art world.Buy works by an artist you think is going to croak in the next year or three. A kind of derivative. Dead artists don&#x27;t make more paintings, supply being capped, prices rise.
