Fortune. Fame seems bad on all counts.

Fortune, without any doubt! I'd absolutely LOVE to be rich, but I don't think I'd much like being famous.

Hi mandy. I was looking at old surveys yesterday, and read that you like Jackie Chan. So do I. I absolutely love him! Let's meet him together so we can plant great big kisses on either side of his face!

 * smile * It's a date!!!!!!!!!!!!

He is the perfect mix of brawn and humor. His body drives me wild.
His sweet face and humor make me feel all warm inside. I love him.

Fortune. Although I'm not that interested in either, more money is always a good thing. I would hate to be famous on the level of tabloid stories and autograph seeking fans. I wouldn't mind a small amount of fame, but I would rather be famous when I'm dead, and don't have to deal with it.

Fortune you can live on, where as fame, a few people like ya, but you got no money for anything...

I don't know. Both seem apealing to me, even though I am fully aware of the lack of privacy. But fame could bring fortune...depends on how I got the fortune, and what kind of fame you are talking about.

Fame, I'd say. It would be more satisfying (and helpful) to write a script and receive awards and recognition for it, even if I don't make much money, rather than to receive a chunk of cash for ghostwriting a script anonymously.

Fortune. I don't want to be a known public figure.

i would take fortune and that way i could give to all the causes that i wanted to and help as many people as possible. i have never really wanted to be famous and have no great desire to be rich either............ i guess i am assuming that fortune is to mean "being rich". i would be happy to have fortune in any way actually.

Fortune. Although I would prefer to be fortunate in the way that I have health & happiness as opposed to having loads of money.

I don't live for either. I am content to be who I am(unknown) and I have no financial fortune. I am very fortunate to have my wonderful kids (grown) and awesome mother.

I would rather be rich and comfortable than known and poor.
As my Granny says, "Why couldn't I have been born rich instead of beautiful", and as Someone else says, "Money can't make you happy, but I sure would like to try"...
I wonder who thought of that and when??? I mean if it was back in the 1600's and you were rich if you had what we consider meager by today's standards, then yeah I can see that, but now, you can't tell me Gates isn't happy!

I'm a private person, fame has too many downsides in that department. There's a lot I could do with a fortune, provided it was mutually exclusive to me being famous.

i don't even know if i'd want either, fame destroys, but fortune can do the same.

fortune. You can decide what you do with your money but you can't control your fame.

It depends what I'd have to do to get either. If I was to be famous for stopping torture and saving lives, fine, but if it was for something terrible that I regretted, no. A fortune would be good, but not if it had been obtained through something bad, no point having it if you feel guilty about it for the rest of your life.
