I’ve heard that there is an ancient Chinese curse:

“May you have an interesting life”.

I've always thought the lifestyle of the rich and totally obscure would suit me just fine.

I always thought the phrase was, “May you die a long time.”
Oh. Not the same, is it? My bad.

Yes. Most people don't enjoy the 'famous' part as much as they thought they would.
