I am trying to get my most wanted's autograph. The only problem is that on his website, he charges $100.00. I am only 16 and honestly can not afford it. I have a few addresses I could try and am trying to locate an address for his ranch in Texas where he lives. I was wondering: Is there anything I could do to increase my chances of getting something back? Please help.

Whoops, I guess I forgot to say who it was!

It is actor Chuck Norris, who is turning 71 in March. I've been watching his T.V. show and his movies for as long as I can remember.

Generally speaking, when someone charges $100.00 for an autograph through thier web site, you will not get him for free at any address. If you found an alternative address, as you claim, it would be advisable to send a fee/donation with your request. I have no idea how much, but would guess a minimum of around $50-60 might work. Maybe. I don't know his success rate one way or the other, so I'm just guessing.
I do have a radical idea, though. Get a part-time job. You are old enough. Then start saving up.

Aside from the naturally gifted,straight a students, everyone I know who had a serious part time job in the latter years of high school suffered academically for it. Plus,at such a young age,(at least over here) you basically earn the minimum wage.

i did this one time for a person who charges. she was a villian on a tv show and i herd she charged. well at that tme i didnt have any money and i was a real fan of her so what i did was sent her pics of my personal collection of all the stuff i have of her: like dvd's, posters, photos, action figures, cards and ect. she was soo touched by it that she sent me 2 signed photos free of charge. you could call this rude, but she was and still is my favorite "back in the day" actress. so you can try that if you have any "Chuck Stuff". good luck.

Really he charges $100.00 for his autograph thats outrageous...What does a 71 year old man need to be charging that much for he made alot of money and now gets a pension too and he has that total gym thing.I think he makes himself look stupid by asking that much at his age because its not like he is someone who never made any money because he made alot of money in his career.

He might just be remembered as the guy who charged 100 dollars for a autograph after he dies instead of being walker texas ranger.

He should be more like lauren bacall or eli wallach !!!

That is actually a brilliant idea. Although,would it be enough to soften the heart of Chuck Norris?
