Is it an advantage or a disadvantage to have an accent?

Advantage: Because of your accent, some people may be interested in you. Not in you particularly, but since your accent sounds nice, they may be interested from where you are and the history of that place.
Disadvantage: Some people may find your accent weird and stuff, you may get bullied and made fun of because of it.

It is an advantage because you can be the only one on your block or at your at your school with an accent bu, some people may not like the particular accent and make fun of you. Its kind of like a mixed between answer.
