I was obsessed with being rich and famous.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I always wanted so much glamour in my life, so I have always been obsessed with class, and from dating a few people who were from old money and a few from new money in my 20s, I just sort of became obsessed with this idea of clueless rich people.
When I was growing up, I thought I'd be a lot happier if I was famous and successful and if I had money.
I had no preconceived idea what fame would be like, because I never thought I would be famous. I just wanted to do my work. Hell, I just wanted to pay my rent on time.
Fame made me develop a panic disorder.
I intended to be famous by the time I was 16 and rich by the time I was 20. Curiously, it didn't pan out!
I was the epitome of rags to riches.
I never set out to be rich and famous. I wanted to follow my own path.
I had never really wanted to be famous. Everyone is supposed to want to be rich and famous, but as a boy I never knew what rich was, and the first view I had of famous made me leery.
I wanted to be successful, not famous.
I didn't get rich and famous, but I do what I love.
