He should be afraid.
I've said it before: One of the hardest things to learn about fame is that it is a cost of doing business. It can kill you. Maybe it will kill you with stress. Or maybe it will kill you by withdrawal: People who are addicted to the charge of being famous become clinically depressed when that charge ebbs, or when they acclimate to it. Just look at what fame has done to so many movie stars and musicians.
One of the great things about geeky hobbies is that most of them allow you to become modestly famous, but no more.

Or maybe it will kill you by withdrawal[.] Or maybe it'll be a psycho stalker fan who shoots you in the back four times after following you around for months. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Lennon#Murder http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Lennon#Murder
