One more thing:

First of all, I pretty much doubt that Bill Cosby (IIRC one of the richest Entertainers in the world) has ever flipped burgers. Or remembers flipping them as a young actor looking for work 40 years ago. But what might work for an actor I'd challenge anyone to try:

Apply for a job in *any* qualified field of work out of your job at McD. Then compete with 100 other applicants. 20 of those or more will not say "currently, I have a lot of experience flipping burgers" Calculate your chances to be the one they pick...

Just what the world needs... obscenely rich jerks giving unsolicited and bloody useless advice to people :P

With magic, you can turn a frog into a prince...
With science, you can turn a frog into a Ph.D. ...
and still keep the frog you started with.
