Knight Barida Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 I would prefer to be a stand-up comedian, and the reason is not far-fetched. Comedy has evolved than what it used to be, and I know that I am going to make lots of money if I am able to become popular as well. killamch89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I love comedy but my dad used to be a pianist as well and he used to perform all over the place and he loved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debashis Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Since I am someone who is more into music, I would prefer being a concert pianist. Becoming a musician has always been in my bucket list. Hopefully someday when life becomes less busy, I would try walking in that path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or you haven't decided as yet? On 5/23/2024 at 6:26 PM, Kyng said: A comedian. I really enjoy making people laugh! I mean, I'm pretty good at telling jokes and coming up with them spontaneously but some of my humor can be extremely dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortie Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 I have always been terrible at making up my own jokes, I tend to be good at witty comebacks but I feel it takes more than that to be a successful comedian. Given the choice between being a stand up comedian or a concert pianist, I feel I would be more successful as a concert pianist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I try to sit there writing jokes, although they're still funny, I find people don't laugh as hard as when I come up with something insane.

To be able to make people laugh is never easy, and that is why I always praise anyone who decides to become a comedian because it is never an easy job.
