What Have I Been Doing Wrong My Whole Life?

Ai asks, What cha think? ..... What you need is a Art of the deal slogan. Something like "Fried fish is best!"
OR "Baby Food = Dinner+" ..... or "Why Not Just Try It!" ..... It's easy to make millions wid a great idea ya just thought up.

I learned yesterday that members of Monty Python make nothing from their work these days. It's dangerous to assume the well known are rich. Palin, a genius, still works in his 80's because he "needs the money". I remember Leonard Cohen, the singer, who made a comeback in his 70's because someone run off with all his money. Ouch.

Yeah, I, too, thought Carrot Top would be living in a shack at the end of town, surrounded by thousands of old props, not living in a vast estate.

I just saw him a couple of years ago sitting at a sidewalk cafe here in Winter Park. He still has a house and is here at times. He looked awful but still recognizable.

He's friends with one of my sisters and my cousin, so I used to see him on occasion.
 
I'm pretty sure I worked with Steve Smith (Red Green) before he went into comedy, but I doubt he's sitting on Carrot Top money.
 
My first thought was that only performers who work for the mob make that kind of money.

Carrot Top – Luxor residency in Las Vegas​

While some might not enjoy Carrot Top’s type of comedy, others certainly do. Since 2005, he’s had a headlining residence at the Luxor Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, doing more than 200 shows a year."
 
I’ve seen his show and didn’t like it. Others love it, so I must be missing something.

He's a comic who uses props and tells clunkers throughout his show. I think it's a 'family friendly' act which is why it has had such a long run in Vegas.

I've always teased him as a was-been and a middling entertainer...but a net worth of 70 million dollars shows me now doesn't it?

Did you go to his Vegas show? True, it wasn’t smut like some shows. Definitely wasn’t family-friendly the night we saw it.
