So, I was thinking out loud on my desk this morning and this keep ringing in my head

I've known quite number of people, who are extensively wealthy and enjoying life, but they're not famous, they don't even post or update on their social media platform.

I've also seen lots of popular people/celebrities, who can not afford medical treatment. Live good life due to financial hindrance.
Some celebrities, rent/borrow clothes, chains, wrist watches even shoes to functions, music videos, photoshoot and make the society believe it's theirs.

This days, almost everyone wants to trend.
Some ladies, do all manner of cra.zy things in the name of content creation, to gain Fame online
So many parents wants their little children to get famous so, they can have breakthrough from poverty.
My question is this,
Dose fame really bring wealth? If yes, How?
Why does most famous people in reality, poor?
Would you prefer to be rich and have a quiet life or famous, known everywhere, but financially not stable?
What are the benefits of being popular?
Share your opinion. Let's learn.

No. If it does, those actors and actresses who are popular but poor wouldn't be out there begging

I thought as much. But why do many of us wants to get fame?

For ego sake. So they can shout, 'do you know who I am'?

Prolly just want to be the centre of attention to feel they are worthy of existing, that feeling of I'm better than others in order to feel valuable in the society.

I think it doesn't worth it.

I prefer living somewhere enjoying in wealth than being popular everywhere and be secretly suffering

Oloki:

Honestly. It doesn't worth it

Hmm

There's a popular song that when you're in search of money, and you meet honour on the way, then you should turn back because the money is needed to buy honour

Fame brings money but it takes financial management skills and prudence to create wealth out of it.

By my definition, wealth is using your money opportunities to create a lifelong financial streams of income.

The actors you mentioned, were once rich but lack the ability or willingness to create wealth out of their money for a long-term financial security.

For instance, if what Portable says about his financial investment is true, then he is wealthy and will even get wealthier with time because he is investing his money rightly but there are some musicians who are have more liquid cash than him right now but can't be as wealthy as him in the long term because they spend the most of their money on frivolities.

As at the moment, the digital world have created one way by which fame can make an individual directly rich. That is having a high social media or YouTube followers which can bring money to the person through advertisement revenues. But the individual still have to manage the money to create wealth out of it.

Yes, it can: by association. Also, if you're famous, you have some degree of influence. People who are wealthy can pay you for the publicity that they lack. You can invest well and become wealthy on the long run.

You nailed it. Some famous people receive gifts freely from the wealthy class for doing them a little favor or none.
