Boolean Operators: Branching Using Boolean Variables ( Python)

I'm working on a homework question and I'm having a terrible time getting it to return the final statement correctly.
Instruction:
Write an expression that prints 'You must be rich!' if the variables young and famous are both True.
Code (I'm only able to update the if statement):
young = True
famous = False
if (young == 'True') and (famous == 'True'):
print('You must be rich!')
else:
print('There is always the lottery...')
My initial thoughts are the combination in the code above, but I'm desperate and I've tried all the combinations below as well:
if (young != 'True') and (famous == 'True'):
if (young == 'True') and (famous != 'True'):
if (young == 'True') and (famous != 'False'):
if (young == 'True') or (famous == 'True'):
if (young == 'True') or (famous != 'True'):
if (young == 'True') or (famous == 'True'):
if (young == 'True') or (famous != 'False'):
The results:
Testing with young and famous as both False
Your output: There is always the lottery...
Testing with young as True and famous as False
Your output: There is always the lottery...
Testing with young as False and famous as True
Your output: There is always the lottery...
✖ Testing with young and famous as both True
Expected output: You must be rich!
Your output: There is always the lottery...

Apparently you are confused between boolean variables and strings
young=True #boolean variable
and
young='True' #string
Here is the corrected code
young = True
famous = False
if young and famous:
print('You must be rich!')
else:
print('There is always the lottery...')
I would recommend you to go through your lessons on strings and boolean variables before using this,Good luck
