fame or fortune i think that fame is the result of fortune as well as hardwork the thing is that whatever thing you get in life is result of hardwork

Hi kush20006 I agree that everything you will get or achieve in life depends on how hard you work for it but i don't think that fame is the result of fortune , i think that sometimes fortune will play a major factor to fame but not everyone who is famous has achieved it because they had money. They had strived hard to achieve fame and thus with fame they had also fortune. It only depends on how they can sustain it. thanks for your response! Have a nice day!

In my younger days I would have chosen fame. But as I got older I realised unless you have worldwide fame or are absolutely unique in your chosen field, fame is short lived. On the other hand, if you have fortune, people will flock to you and you would enjoy short term fame albeit amongst a small group of people,therefore the automatic choice is fortune over fame.

I would choose both !!! haha. if only one option is permitted, either of them will do because with fortune, you can buy fame; with fame, you can earn fortune. They are brothers.
