I laugh at people who say, "My picture came in the newspaper". This person's picture was in the newspaper along with some social event. He must be one of the 10-15 people in the photo. I also laugh at people saying "I came in a TV channel". They must have come in a TV channel for a very short time or his part would have been cut from the program while editing.
According to me, it doesn't matter if you are famous or you come in TV or newspaper. It is more important that you make good money.

It is fine if the publicity gets you money. Publicity without money is waste of time. I will never go for it. Even if publicity gives money to me, I will concentrate more on the money making part of it than the publicity. I hate publicity without money. I think the people who ran behind publicity by spending their hard earned money are fools.

No, I don't think they are fools.
For them it is a way of life.
After all you can't take money with you when you die.
But, publicity keeps you alive after your gone.

That is a different view. Anyway, spending money for publicity is not my cup of tea. I don't care much about pulicity. Again it depends on the persepective and interest of the people. There may be people who will very happy to be famous in a small town that getting 100 thousand rupees. People are different.

I will choose money over publicity but i won't be a hypocrite. I'll feel happy if i see myself on tv. I'll even tell my friends about it.

I don't care much if I come on TV. I don't announce it to my friends and family and force them to watch the program. I may do that if it is a personal interivew with me, but not when it is a group program or social program. I am not ready to spend moeny so that my picture of news about me will come on TV or radio. I don't care or show anybody if my name is there as a part of the news in one corner of the newspaper.

For me, both of them are important.but practically speaking, i will choose money.we are facing economic crisis now so it is very important to be wise.what will be the use of being in a newspaper or in a television if you can't eat three times a day?

Well.
A choice between paw of bear's and fish......um.... a task
I donnt know whether u will get more chances to be reported by press,appear in Tv as soon as u are a fat cat,totally minted...
If not, I choose money.IF yes, money also.
There is no need to be known as a rich guy through out whole nation,and neither known by all the people I'm pauper,lead a miserable life...
So, money first

I prefer to money.Because publicity will be only momentary and will vanish as days pass by.
Yes, in the society we come across varieties of people - so we need to understand them too as they feel great if their photo is published in a news paper.And because of this they share with as many as possible -this is their weakness and when the right maturity arises in them they will stop their publicity.
So let us bare such variety of people and excuse them for their publicity.
