Do I think about "life wasting"? Definitely.
I don't really care about smashing random broads or being super-rich, I just want to be useful. And that Deena Jacobs thread yesterday and this article got me thinking about usefulness. I mean, acting is a real art, definitely. But for some time now, I've felt that actors are simply people who bring to life some other person's stories, some other person's visions. I remember hanging with theater majors, I thought I might even consider it myself. I just couldn't do it.
The average salary for actors is something like 40-50k? When I think about the guys and girls who are pulling in millions, it makes me think of what those on the other end of the spectrum are doing. Sleeping in their cars waiting for their big break. Jumping into relationships with anyone for regular food and the same bed at night. Then years pass by, and most of the time, nothing to show for it. Some stories to tell. Maybe a kid or 2 who they then plan to follow in their footsteps and fix all the mistakes they've made by any means necessary.
And what benefits do most of them provide? Not much.
