I rather be rich so I'd automatically be part of the famous crowd, but less pressure, and lot's of privacy. How about you guy what will you choose? Have a nice day to all of you!

I would easily enjoy being famous first. I'd imagine I could use my fame to gather some good income. Then again, if I was rich, I bet I could be famous for being rich. I could use my money to start a film company and I could star in all of the films. There are many ways I could go about it.

Supposedly it is self serving for me to say so but I would like both. I would be famous as a writer so I would kind of be expected, by way of cliche', to be a private, isolated person, even though I'm really not. And if you are famous as a writer, you are probably also rich because you got famous from people buying your books....

i'd rather be rich than famous. famous people do not get privacy at all. cameras in your face everywhere you go. i would go crazy. i think they should pass a law for that. everybody deserves privacy. so i would take being rich than famous any day. happy posting!

I would definitely rather be rich instead of famous. You can be famous and not even be rich! I would love to have money and not have people following me trying to take my picture and stalk me all day long.

I woud rather like to be remembered as a nice,helping and caring person more than a rich or famous person..if you do good for people around you then you will be famous automatically but you have to be a good person to be famous..even osama bin laden is famous but the thing is that you should be remembered as a person who did good for the people and for the country..that is what i would like to be...happy mylotting...

The trend these days seems to be people are famous for being rich. As for me, famous is nice but it doesn't buy the groceries. I'll take rich and then I'll become famous for being rich.

I'd rather be rich. Being famous comes with a lot of pressure and responsibilities to the public. I value my privacy so much and i need all the time i can get for myself so being famous kind of alienate me from the things i want. Sure i love people's admiration but there will come a time when being tired of it comes along. Like you said, being rich kind of make you famous in way that you're not pushed to do something because you don't owe them anything.

Yes!First to go ricn and enjoy the things you want to without any disturbances.People lack privacy when famous and have to run for a farthest place,where they are not identified to enjoy themselves.I really pity them.Getting rich you can play things cool and easy more with those famous ones.Your popularity can be turned down shortly after a new arrival.And you can monitor your richness by yourself.Cheers!

i would go for rich rather than famous. because i have a lot of things in mind that would need a lot of money. i would like to put up my own business and make a foundation that would give those children who can't afford to go to school, a chance to have an education. i really wanted to help those people who are need.

I would want to be rich and not famous. With fame comes intervention on your life from almost everywhere. You tend to loose your privacy. With fame comes the need to socialize which takes away a lot of your time, which you'd otherwise have spent on yourself or with your near and dear ones. Fame tends to affect one's relationships too.

I would also go for being RICH, I would choose to invest the money for businesses wherein I could help my family and some people who does deserved to be helped with. I prefer to be rich first and keep a pace of helping others would eventually led me to be known especially among the hearts of the people whom I have helped with. Real riches to me though comes from the abundance of your heart's good ways. Have a great day !
