Rich, then I wouldn't have to deal with Paparazzi busting in on me when they ought not be around. Anonymous riches would have to be the best imho.

Some sort of fortune usually comes with being famous....

But I'd just opt to be rich from like winning the lottery or someone passing away and leaving me cash..... That way you arent thrust into the spot light.
I wouldn't want / be able to handle reporters in my face or fans calling me/hacking my sidekick (hah) etc etc.

they would both be cool.

being famous would be sweet to specially for dj-ing it would be the shit to sell out every event you played at and have thousands of people partying there asses off to your set day in and day out.

No one wants to be famous. They sell themselves to get rich.

Rich. Fame's fickle and overrated.

Plus, money is power, not fame. You can get anything with money, even fame. You can't necessarily get money from fame.

I'd rather be rich. I could share my wealth with my family and friends.


And then hell I could be famous just for being rich (like Paris Hilton) anyways!

i know i'm the only one that is probably going pick fame over being rich.

reason:

i would like to be remembered on this earth after i die, especially for writing a great novel or making a great film (regardless of whether i become rich from it). money isn't that big of a thing for me, but i would like to become famous through my writing or films. that way a little piece of me will continue to live after i'd died.

That's a good way of seeing fame.

I was thinking of fame more in the celebrity sense. Paprazzi everywhere, fans screaming wanting to mug you, creepy stalkers. I definitely don't want that. I want to have privacy.

You can still be remembered for being rich. You can pass your fortunes down to your heirs, own something extravagant and everyone will know you for it. But I see your point on having your art live on even after you die. It reminds me of that poem, Ozymandias lol.

Also, on a different thought, it is possible to be incredibly rich and not have anyone know about it. Julia Louis-Dreyfuss (Elaine from Seinfeld) is actually an heiress to a fortune worth more than Paris Hilton's. Not many people know this, I wouldn't have if my friend hadn't written a paper on it.

yeah, you can be remembered for being really rich and buying something weird and cool...but, that's a crappy way to be remembered, in my opinion.

i would rather be remembered for contributing something worthwhile to society or culture than just for being some strange dude with a lot of cash who bought that flying bike.
