To achieve the life you want, avoid situations that devalue your worth. Like when Oprah’s “The Life You Want” tour, with its tickets priced up to $999, asks you to perform for free.
Dear Oprah:
No effing way.

For all the free press and ability to say perfomed on Oprahs tour I am suprised they do not make the performers pay. Damn that Oprah for reaching out to locals to give them some free press.

Oprah fought like HELL to get where she is today and you can bet she wouldn't have turned down an opportunity to do a job for free if it would get her some exposure.
