One of the most iconic images of the last 50 years is Russell Crowe in Gladiator screaming, 'Are you not entertained?' What a manly man, right? However, there are many other types of entertainers besides actors... and gladiators.

There are so many types of 'entertainers.' But there's only one underlying question we can ask to determine whether or not you truly are an entertainer. And that question was so ruthlessly put forward when a gladiator walked around a Roman Colosseum and asked the audience, 'Are you not entertained?'
