In 1975, Sylvester Stallone wrote the screenplay for "Rocky." He shopped the script to every producer and studio in Hollywood, but he was repeatedly rejected. Eventually, one production company, Chartoff-Winkler Productions, expressed interest. But there was one condition... They didn't want Stallone to play Rocky. They wanted a "more marketable actor" for the leading role. In fact, they were so desperate for Stallone to *not* play Rocky that they kept offering him increasingly large sums of money to go away. "It went up to $360,000," Stallone said, "to go away, to 'get off my lawn boy.'" Stallone didn't take the money for 2 reasons: 1) “I had learned to manage on very little money,” Stallone said. “I had it down to a science. I really didn't need much to live on.” “But more than that...” 2) “There was something about the idea of unrealized dreams,” Stallone said. “I knew that if I sold the script—even for $500,000—I knew that after the money was gone, I would have become very bitter if I never realized my dream.” Takeaway 1: “The trick is,” Tom Rothman (CEO of Sony Pictures Motion Picture Group) says, “to be fiscally responsible so you can be creatively reckless.” Hollywood is a ruthless business. If Rocky failed, that likely would have been the end of Stallone’s acting career. But because he had his fiscal responsibilities down to a science, Stallone could make the reckless decision to turn down the money and gamble his career on Rocky. Takeaway 2: Stallone turned down the money because he feared the bitter person he would have become if he never went for his dream. The screenwriter Brian Koppelman (Rounders, Ocean's Thirteen, Billions, etc.) talks about why, after many years of putting it off, he finally started writing: “What I finally realized was that if I allowed these creative impulses to die, it would be like a real death, and like any form of death, it would be toxic and this toxicity would ooze out of me onto everyone and everything.” - - - "If you don’t take money, they can’t tell you what to do, kid…Money’s the cheapest thing.
