Discussion question for all of my friends who want to be professional entertainers- singers, comedians, actors, writers, etc.:
You get an offer- for two years, you will be one of the most successful
and famous entertainers on the planet. You will sell out stadiums,
people will beg for you to appear on their tv shows, you will make
millions.
The price is, at the end of the two years, it all
ends. You go from selling out stadiums to being a punchline for a
has-been, and your name is radioactive. You keep what you have in terms
of wealth, but you'll never work again.
In other words, I'm
offering you Andrew Dice Clay or Stephanie Meyer's career path. If you don't take it,
you'll continue on whatever path you're going.
Do you take the offer?
