Parasocial relationship logic
If:
You become like the five people you spend the most time with (or something remotely like that)
The people who are most extremal in good ways tend to be highly successful
Should you try to have 2-3 of your five relationships be parasocial ones with people too successful to be your friend individually?
I've had a similar idea. For a while when I was in college, all the people I spent the most time with had beliefs and values that were very far from my own, and I felt I was absorbing too much from them. Partly for that reason (and partly for entertainment), I listened to about a zillion hours of Rob Wiblin interviews. It definitely helped.
The flip side is that if I consume too much good stuff, I end up with an inferiority complex. But maybe the issue there is just relating too intellectually and not enough socially.
Even if 1) were true, it may be the strategies those more successful people are using won't work for you or are, indeed, sub-optimal for you based on your skill-sets.
At any rate, I think the main benefit of social relationships is reciprocity, which para-social relationships lack entirely.
