what is your goal if you break into fame?
We all have dreams and goals and some people feel like they've been put here for a certain reason. In short I want to rise above gain the audience and strive for a better place, help the sad, poor and corrupt and change this world. How about you?

Completely self sustained. Food forests. Raising alpacas, goats and chickens. Then having a section of the land fenced off as a cat sanctuary so rescue cats can have a place to live and not having to be killed. Jun 01 14 10:23 pm Link I just want photographers to stop saying "Maybe you should just keep this as a hobby" Jun 01 14 10:34 pm Link I want to make it to Hollywood. Not with the modeling, but with the acting. My goal is to get close enough to Ben Affleck to tell him just what I really think of him.. and to get close enough to Ryan Gosling, to tell HIM what I really... but that's a story for another restraining order... And of course adopt another 1257 cats. Jun 02 14 03:11 pm Link If there is fame, I want the $$$ to go with it. Jun 02 14 03:18 pm Link Chuckle with late-night talk show hosts.

Jun 05 14 02:04 am Link To discredit the notion of fame as much as possible, since I find it so irritating. It would also be a fine way to amuse myself.

Most people I have met have a distorted view of what being famous is like. Having been there, being famous is anything but something you'd want. You are constantly judged, talked about, ridiculed, you become a material soulless object that everyone around you owns and molds into what they perceive you to be. You loose yourself, you as a person, and you have to watch what you say, please others, who are never please-able. Being famous also does not equate to being rich or successful, most famous people suffered a lot in poverty AND at the hands of their audience. If you can get people to pay to watch and hate/ridicule you, then you can make money off of that, but that takes a huge emotional toll. No different than selling your soul to the devil. I went into acting only because I love art, not because of my natural stage presence, which I never understood why everyone around me was obsessed about, I just wanted to distance myself from that as far as possible. Jun 05 14 04:33 pm Link If that happens, I want to make tons of money for animal welfare and forest conservation. Jun 05 14 04:38 pm Link When I break into fame I want to hire more people on a more regular basis. That's how I'll help the community, by bringing in work and hiring more people in the photographic community. If they want to "change the world" then maybe the bit of income I can kick their way will assist. But myself, I'm a realist, perhaps a bit jaded, and I tend to focus on things I can actually effect. Jun 05 14 05:24 pm Link Stay up there! Jun 05 14 06:41 pm Link Establish a foundation to provide assistance to women who have suffered abuse from domestic and random act of violence. www.theheartofwomen.com Jun 05 14 06:48 pm Link I don't want fame, better to be anonymous and wealthy. Remind of that great old book/study the millionaire next door. Read it when I was young (not young enough) and it change how I look at life. Jun 05 14 06:53 pm Link I'm not waiting for fame, this year I started shooting for charity and feel richer for it. Jun 05 14 07:14 pm Link Coming from someone who grew up in section eight housing, with a disability and in a family of people who never made it to college; if i make it big i just want to live comfortably. I want for my husband and I to be able to have the things we want and be able to provide those around us with the things they need. Jun 05 14 07:17 pm Link MDWM wrote: Congratulations! That sounds wonderful. Jun 05 14 07:21 pm Link Fame is a double edged sword but I would like to shoot for major magazines. Jun 05 14 07:34 pm Link Bridget Jane Cassidy wrote: With ya on that one! Jun 05 14 10:52 pm Link "Fame" truly isn't my goal. LONGEVITY and CONSISTENCY in my modeling career is my goal. I just want to travel, learn other cultures, meet different people and die a better person. I also want to own a business but that has nothing to do with modeling lol. Jun 06 14 10:44 pm Link already have it...a phone call or email asking to do shoots....that works at this stage...Mo Jun 06 14 10:53 pm Link To be able to remember my own name in 10 years time.
