Would you rather have money or fame?

I know the answer. Give me the best reason so that I can better explain the answer.

    money... I don't care to be famous

  • 1 decade ago

    No. I'd far rather have the peace and contentment that come from being in the center of God's will for my life. That isn't fleeting or dependent on circumstance. Money and/or fame can't possibly replace the deep joy and peace and fulfillment that only God gives. I've been working with a missions organization for over 20 years, without much money at all, so I really do know what I'm talking about.

    Money, one can do only so much with fame as you lose a lot of your privacy how ever with money I have been able to donate to many a worthy cause eg medical research local community Charity's the best thing is that one can choose the cause that is funded from a donation and make the donation without all the fanfare that celebs go looking for by doing this I personally feel that they are just looking for praise and recognition to help further their own self rather than the charity.

    With fame comes money, but if you had money and no fame then when you are broke how do you get more money? Can't stop the source of happiness, just put up with the paparazzi. After all, what is the harm in a few pictures and some fake stories about you in the supermarkets?

    My philosophy: The stars don't care about my life, why should I care about theirs?

    I would rather have money and no you don't have to be famous in order to be rich. There are plenty of rich people out there I have never heard of. The reason I would rather have money than fame, is because I wouldn't want ever move I make to be in the tabloids.

    Just the money would be fine. Then i dont have to worry with all the trouble of being famous. and you can have money without fame.

    fame is way better because then you get stuff that money could buy for free, and you'll have a hell of a lot better stories to tell than if you just had a lot of extra money

    Lets see Bill Gates is ugly but has lots of money yet everyone knows who he is. Paris Hilton, another example is only famous because of her money. So to answer your question money.

    Fame.....if you had it the money would follow.It's like filling up a bucket..fill the top half...the bottom...will take care of its self.

    Having lots and lots of money is fine with me. Money can buy anything, everything...but happiness (for some people).
