Reply To: Is authentic Judaism incompatible with being rich and famous?

I think many people ignored a key part of my question, the “and famous” part. Meaning, choosing an occupation where you strive to become a celebrity of sorts and very well known within that field when that field is not related to Judaism i.e not a famous rabbi or the King of Israel or prophet of God- as some of you have mentioned to refute my observation (I thought this was obvious).

Its just a blatant trend I noticed in my person life and wondered if others have noticed it also. I have likewise noticed a trend that extreme poverty often (though not as much) leads to going off the derech to an extent as well for many people in subtle ways.
