text:  What were you getting paid at Playwrights per week? $1,200, I think. So to some kid who's listening to you and saying, oh, yeah, I'd like to have a hit like that and an interesting character like that and a life like that, how would you advise them about the actual career prospects of paying rent and living and maybe having a family and so on? You know, that's something I've been thinking about a lot because my girlfriend and I were having those discussions.
