Fame and Fortune

I've noticed that a lot of people take popularity too seriously, spending their time making themselves look better for other people, so that they'll like them more.

Yet, there are also the people who disregard it completely, saying it's useless in life and we can get by just as well without it.

Well, are they right? Is popularity really important? Should it be? What is the relationship between fame and success?
Is it a bad idea to completely ignore the idea and just focus on your future?

I place any particular importance on fame right now And considering that I'm only in high school, it plays a rather unimportant role - at least in the way that high school considers 'cool' nowadays.

But, I don't think that it can be ignored on the grand scheme of things. Fame and fortune will affect everyone, and if you're popular, you get the pick of the litter, so to speak. If you're considered 'cool,' you run at a bigger advantage. It's unfair, but it's how it works.
