Average vs Fame (lemmy.world)
submitted 2 weeks ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

What life would you prefer leading, an average but quiet and peaceful life? Or a famous life where you have glamour, wealth and luxurious accommodation.

I'm not sure about you but I'd prefer an average life of content and comfort knowing that while money is good, it's not everything.

Let me know your thoughts!

Honestly I can't see why you'd choose average, non-wealthy. If you want quiet and peaceful, you're sure to get it when wealthy, just pay for a large residence and security on the outskirts, then stay inside. Use disguises/body doubles when going out. Except for a little organizational overhead, which you can also pay people to do for you, you can have everything you want when you're famous and wealthy.

-- pay for a large residence and security on the outskirts, then stay inside. Use disguises/body doubles when going out.

So ... you can everything you want, except sponteneity? Or privacy, with all those staff hanging around. And there'd still be some douche tracking your private jet.

Privacy might be hard. Spontaneity is really, really easy when you have a black card, a private jet and possibly an income stream that runs itself.
