I'm curious what would you choose in this scenario (just an example):D

1. to win a WSOP bracelet (Eternal Glory) but with $150k Up top
or
2. Cash 4th place in a big tourney and win $1.5m

Fame or Fortune let me know!

For me it's totally the cash lol. If your continuously profitable and doing well the bracelets will come. But if it's 150 k and a bracelet or 4th and 1.5 m I would take the 1.5 m every time.

I’d rather be wealthy and live quietly. I have no desire to be famous, (I wouldn’t be unhappy being famous with money) but losing the ability to live a “normal” life and go to the local bookstore or a restaurant is lost for many famous people. I have no desire to encounter fan after fan and lose the ability to live without the ability of doing things. Some famous can’t leave the house without creating mass hysteria, going to the mall is impossible because thousands of people will swarm. The paparazzi always taking pictures or chasing after me wouldn’t be my best life. I’d love to be able to live with no worries financially without anyone knowing it or interfering. Privacy and peace and quiet is much more appealing., especially if I had a fortune. [emoji3]

Easy, you take the big money. Then you can always go back to play another day.

I like money. You can always buy fame if you have enough money.

I asked a similar question a while back, but I'll take the $$. The bracelet will be there year after year... in theory.

Money is important to me, as much money as possible so that I can live and not be in trouble, and this money would be enough for my children, and maybe even grandchildren. And I don’t need glory, because it is temporary and after a while everyone will forget me like all great people.

what to choose?

I would choose the second option-Get 4th place in a big tournament and win $ 1.5 million. Because, like many people, money is very necessary. I am a more rational person and am very calm about fame, titles, rating and prestige.:cool::cool::cool:

Fortune all the way. Money buys happiness and I am sick of being poor. Been poor all my life.
