Would you rather: Be Rich or Famous?

I'd rather be rich.

I could discover myself and then use the money to do things to become famous.

=D

Rich.. and stay unknown to the general public. I don't want people bothering me in the road for anything.

Screw fame, I would definetely go with being rich.

I'd rather be Rich and Not Famous than Rich and Famous

Wait, so if I'm rich that automatically means I don't appreciate things? Ummm...:?

I would rather be rich

rich

being famous is overrated

I do not want to be famous unless it is within the academic community, and I will definitely go with rich.

Famous. I love attention.

I'd rather be rich. Having lots of money is way more advantageous than being popular.

Neither.

Neither, both are a waste of life.

Definitely rich, being famous causes nothing but problems.

Without a doubt, I'd rather be rich than famous. I enjoy my privacy and really wouldn't give a damn what the media thought of me if I were famous.

Honestly, yes, supposing you're okay with it. Being happy and poor is infinitely better than being happy and rich.

Why?

Well, usually, anyway. :P

If you have a lot, it's easy to depend on it all to make you happy ... But, eventually, all those material things are going to fade away as you age/die, and so will your happiness. If you can manage to be happy without a ton of external crap, it's probably a kind of happiness that is deeper and longer-lasting, and that time or misfortune can't take away from you. Or something like that.

Only one option is dominating in this topic and i want to be a part of it..

Rich, no contest. Fame is a curse, in my opinion.

Let's be honest - they usually go hand in hand. It would be hard to be rich without being relatively famous, and famous people usually end up rich one way or another.

Well if I was famous, wouldn't I be rich?

Rich and care about nothing not even about not caring. 8)

I would rather be Rich. Then I would make my way up to being famous.

Rich, of course.

Rich, 'Cause I don't want paparazzi surrounding me everyday.

rich.. :P.. ahaha

I'll take rich any day, fame is overrated
