Which would you rather have?

(Ignoring the fact that enough money will bring fame and that enough fame will bring money. I'm talking useless, Numa Numa fame versus anonymous, bank robber wealth.)

Having so much money that I become famous for my capricious and whimisical indulgents and wasteful lifestyle.

I couldn't care less about people knowing my face & name. A shedload of money though, now that'd be sweet.

Money first. I could probably get the fame afterwards and thus, have my cake and eat it too.

I always used to find this saying a very strange one: something to do with the fact that I was taking the 'have' in the sense of 'you'll have had your tea' - that is, as an alternative word for 'eaten'. So kill me.

A winning fantasy baseball team.

That would bring money and fame, so can I check both?

Money.

If I had a lot of money, but didnt' have to work for it, then I could sit around and do nothing.

If I had a lot of fame, then I'd just get harassed and still have to work, probably.

What about a flying monkey?
That'd be cooler. And certainly make you famous and probably rich, to boot.

I think the propper order is:
First you get the money, then you get the power, and then you get the women. I think fame fits in their somewhere between the power and the women.

Notoriety. The word you want is notoriety. Now. Make way for the bad guy!

(This is why I'm in the ns fantasy baseball league. Forget the money and the fame, VO: Chicks dig a champion.)

Not always. I'd enjoy being a quiet rich. until I take over the world, that is.

It's a Fun Lovin Criminals reference. There's a lyric that goes "I'd rather have money than fame." I heard that and thought to myself, "who wouldn't?" So I thought I'd put it to the test.

Money.

Fame is so fickle and even if I were famous for life, i value my privacy too much. if i want to wear an unflattering dress, or sweats sometimes, i dont want the nation or world commenting on it.
