I saw this post by Roger Fan at YouOffendMeYouOffendMyFamily: acting without dying, happy while trying.  In his end-of-the-year blogpost, he says that if he could jump back in time, he would counsel his younger self to “BECOME A DENTIST YOU DIPSHIT.”  He says that if he couldn’t convince himself to get into dentistry, he would recommend, “Pursue and develop a fulfilling, pragmatic, non-Hollywood career path in parallel to your efforts of becoming an actor.”  He then goes on to list the reasons why actors should have parallel careers, reasons that include having more cash, moving along with life, and being able to travel.
