I think travel is probably the downside of playing professional golf but you've got to do it.
I think that the Information Age is great but there's a downside to it obviously as well and it's that false information can be perpetuated so quickly. And it's sad that so many people will believe it.
I think one of the downsides of the sort of obsession with romantic love and personal fulfillment is that the plain fact of the matter is that those feelings don't last for ever and so they better be replaced and reinforced by things that do.
Golf has an ambivalent relationship with the environment. On one hand it's a great preserver of open spaces. Golf doesn't pave the world - it helps to green the world. But the downside is it uses a lot of fertilizer pesticides and water.
Eating ice cream and not exercising is great. The downside is your health isn't so good.
There aren't many downsides to being rich other than paying taxes and having relatives asking for money. But being famous that's a 24 hour job right there.
I always want to say to people who want to be rich and famous: 'try being rich first'. See if that doesn't cover most of it. There's not much downside to being rich other than paying taxes and having your relatives ask you for money. But when you become famous you end up with a 24-hour job.
Inequality can have a bad downside but equality for its part sure does get in the way of coordination.
Every job has its downside. For example being in a band the travel part of it - getting picked up from your house in a car going to the airport getting on a plane going from the airplane to a van then going from the van to a hotel.
I think it's brought the world a lot closer together and will continue to do that. There are downsides to everything there are unintended consequences to everything. The most corrosive piece of technology that I've ever seen is called television - but then again television at its best is magnificent.
For me growing up the downside of it was that as a kid you don't want to stand out. You don't want to have a famous father let alone get a job because of your famous father you know? But I'm a product of nepotism. That's how I got my foot in the door through my dad.
There are a lot of downsides to being male. We age faster and die younger. But give us this: we're lifetime baby-making machines. Women's reproductive abilities start to wane when they're as young as 35. Men? We're good to go pretty much till we're dead.
I always wanted to ride a dragon myself so I decided to do this for a year in my imagination.
