Where were jesters in the feudal system?
Jesters were not really part of the formal feudal structure. They were dealt with separately, as were a lot of other people, such as physicians, lawyers, shop owners and other people of the middle class. Jesters were licenced fools, to use the medieval term. This meant that they had licence (permission) to do anything they wanted and get away with it. They had to operate in a way that was entertaining, funny, or instructive. We have records of a jester for Queen Elizabeth being warned because he was too careful of her feelings. We have a record of one jester for James I who was fired for being too insulting to important guests, but interestingly, he was able to acquire a fair amount of wealth while he was in the king's employ, and was not punished.

How did jesters become jesters?
Jesters were people who were funny or, possibly, attractively offensive. They got their jobs because they were entertaining enough to keep around and pay to be what they were. Clearly, some were better than others. When a member of the nobility came across some person who could be a good jester, it was not uncommon to offer that person a job and pay. If the jester was very good, and the noble wanted to get into the good graces of someone in a higher position, the jester could be recommended to that higher person as a favor to both him and the jester. The best jesters were gradually passed to successively better employers until they might work for a king. Jesters at the highest levels could earn quite a lot of money, and there are records of jesters with a number of estates of their own, given as rewards for their services.
