When Jim Carrey broke out some years, many people thought that he was a joker but he has proven to be both a walking contradiction and entertaining actor. Carrey has moved on to feature in some major films and becoming influential and very rich. Yet, he has a lively skepticism about the media and fame.
The actor dropped out of school when he was 16 the year his father lost his job. He found solace in the show business.
When he hit the show business, his family was swimming in poverty and things were so bad for them. The feeling of depression and desperation fueled his work ethic and comedy. When he was once asked if success has brought him calm and peace or more pain, he said that he realized that calm and peace were not going to support his business. However, he stated that he could work toward peace and find bliss but that wouldn’t give him a career.
Carrey has gone controversial over the years yet, the money has not stopped flowing to him. His attitude towards wealth and fame is quite different from how others perceive it.
