(DONT THINK IM STUCK UP CUZ I MODEL. ITS NOT A BIG DEAL... ITS JUST A JOB) Anyways, I'm an aspiring model. There's this huge thing that I was invited to by a model scouting company... there's going to be the top 50 agencies (in the world) there. I was overjoyed to be invited but 1) It's going to cost some big bucks, like $700 for the fee, food, hotel, etc. 2) I've been told (if I get signed) they might want me to move to closer to LA, NY, etc. Or I could end up being pulled out of public school so I can travel,etc. My friend does Abercrombie ads and he's home schooled and gets to fly to Hawaii and other cool places but imagine how different his life has become because of that...
So what would you do? Would you drop everything if you're big chance to become rich N famous came to you?

If that's your dream, then yes, go for it. Just weigh the pros and cons. Once you become famous, you can never go back to being a regular person. DOn't do it just to become rich and famous. That will not make you happy in the long run. But if you love modeling and that's your dream job, then the fame and fortune wouldn't matter either way. Just be sure that you're wanting to do this for the right reasons. Make sure you're willing to give up a great deal of your life to this.

I would like the rich part, but not the famous part. From what I've seen, being famous sucks. You have no privacy, papparrazi follow you wherever you go, they harrass you everywhere, you get phonecalls off the ying-yang, your emails are stuffed to the brink from self-promoters to obsessed fans to crazy fans. You get no privacy in public because everyone's hounding you for an autograph, and the tabloids trash talk you, saying you're bulimc, anorexic, or hitting on someone's guy, and you can't do a thing about it. However, I am a private person so it would probably be different if you're a more outgoing person. I wouldn't drop everything because the life of Hollywood is not worth it. It's lonely, cold, and cruel to those who are not ready for it. You have to accept that you're not going to have a spare inch of privacy anymore and be willing to commit to fame the rest of your life.

I would...and did...never became famous but had alotta dough...being young, carefree, and not seeing life past 19 (I was like 13 at the time) I gave alot away and blew the rest on clothes and partying. ;) If I had it to live over again though I still would have chosen to leave my "normal" life behind, but I'd have saved a lot more of what I earned. MAKE SURE you spend and save your money wisely! This kind of 'easy money' is easy to spend and once you're not making it anymore that's it. You have to get a 9-5 that won't get you half as much. Good luck to you and I hope you do well in whatever you choose!

I would be but be careful of people who are want to be friends with you because they dont want to they want to used you and never stop talking to the friends you have now becuase you are now famous you dont that.Dont think be around famous people is a good thing and dont date anybody that is famous .Just remember it is business and should save your money because when you no longer lovely you will not have any more calls or be allow to those partys where only the rich and famous go to.

If it was what I truly wanted in life--ok. But you have ot realize that having lots of money and being famous isn't all it's cracked up to be. Celebrities don't have a moment's peace--they are always photoraphed wherever they go. They have stalkers. They get lies written or told about them. Not a way I would want to live my life personally.

No that's no longer genuine in any respect! actually in case you start up youthful you will learn greater benefit lots greater journey then people who start up later in there life! you would understand greater with reference to the industry, enterprise, and advance your performing skills. besides, by using the time you attain 30 you would be stankin rich. So i think of its a solid option to start now! Feb 13

Wouldn't just drop everything, I would take my family into consideration. I wouldn't say Hey I am leaving I am going to be rich. I would make arrangements with them to keep in contact . And just because you are famous it doesn't Always last.
I would surely give it my best and if i fail in someway I always know my family will be there for me..

Don't we all wish we could be rich and famous? Why don't you ask them to wait awhile so that you can finish high school and then do your modeling career. Normally we should all see whether we like it or not.
