An advantage. To being a nobody.

I wonder. If one’s role or status makes a difference. Let’s say. That I’m the president. A celebrity, of sorts.  Presumably, I’d get more attention. People would more likely take me seriously.  For my pretentious comments. I could give advice. And be listened to. Just because. I’d be more influential. Especially if I had money. Because money talks. Doesn’t it? People might cling to me. For no earthly reason. Other than that I’m famous. Wouldn’t matter. That I sold my soul. Just to get where I am. Yes, maybe there’s an advantage. To being a nobody. --Jim Broede
