This weekend our poll asked the question: Rich or Famous? Most of you with with the rich option. I mentioned that I’d post my choice on Monday.
I’d have to go with famous over rich. I picked this long ago. I guess it’s just more important for me to have people know me than to have the cash.
“A good name is more desirable than great riches; to be esteemed is better than silver or gold.”
If you can tell me where that comes from, I’ll draw you a picture!

That’s easy Proverbs 22:1.

It comes from Proverbs 22:1

By the way, I also voted for famous because I believe the exact same thing. I’d rather build a community of friends that know my name rather than getting rich.

Prov 22:1.
But I cheated, and it’s easy:
o Select the quote (including the quotation marks)
o Option (or Alt) Space, to activate the Ubiquity Firefox plugin
o type ‘g’ then enter, and it google searches that, finding it easily
Or if you don’t have Ubiquity, copy the quote and paste into your Google search window.

I believe that it’s Proverbs 22:1! Great answer to the question by the way.

Preach it!

Prov. 22:1 I think…

Proverb 22:1, but I cheated. I still told you where it came from! And James, you didn’t say that you would only draw the first person a picture!
I voted rich, but I changed my mind. If I’m famous, I can just make people give me money!

Seriously though, how many famous people are there that aren’t rich?
October 28th, 2008 at 7:56 pm
Lots. Mother Theresa for one.

But that’s not the point. The point is if you had to choose one…
