Here comes someone who probably knows fuck all about the man, other than the fact that he "married his stepdaughter", which isn't true at all.
Even if he was a paedophile, which he isn't, he's still a genius beyond every standard. His movies, his books, his stand-up comedy, his music. He's achieved more than most people could dream of achieving.
So tell me all about how you know everything about Woody Allen and why that puts you in a position to judge him as a person.

I'm not looking to be a Justin Bieber, but someone who has a job but makes a name for himself and gets some doe on the side from doing what he loves. You know?
Cause most likely my job will be some stupid shit like personal trainer or PE teacher; something that doesn't get you the money you need these days.

Yeah, that's exactly how I've envisioned things. Sticking to yourself is the most important thing, not letting yourself be exploited, recording and writing what you want to record and write.
I'd settle into a coffin knowing that I've at least got some published material that is all me, even if it didn't make a splash. Nick Drake wasn't famous until well after he died, his entire discography was re-published hundreds of times and he was labelled the best folk guitarist in history. Dude never played a single live show in his 27 year life (27 club, I know). I mean, getting just a little bit of satisfaction out of having a finished piece of work is enough, you know? Who gives a fuck about other people, fame is a bonus in my opinion.
Even if you are a P.E. teacher, it's still a chance to breed greatness. Best you could get out of that is have one of your pupils go on to be a massive quarterback and you can drink in bars and say "I taught that guy..."
