Right. Not only would I wager that this ‘info’ is incredibly unreliable and inaccurate, I find it really odd that regular people keep up with, and just in general, give a frick what a celebrity is worth or if they are going broke or not

I’m a huge saints fan, but I really DGAF what guys like Brees or Cam Jordan do with their money.. it’s just really an odd thing to worry about IMO, but to each their own, I guess

**its the same thing with those people who are obsessed with worrying about whom celebs are dating

The bigger question is why aren’t they billionaires with the access to capital they’ve had?

I'm only presenting information "The Richest" made back in 2017

To be honest, I totally agree with you. The obsession over celebrities is one of the few flaws of a overly capitalist society imho.

No he doesn't. He's on the brink of declaring bankruptcy. He has a lot of assets, but he also has a shite ton of debt and has spent a fortune on wine that he drank. He's not in a good spot at all.


If he sold all of his assets, he'd cover his debts and still get a good bit of mailbox money each month. Not to mention all the new movies he's going to be in, he's still a big time working actor.

He's just an idiot.

He better hope Disney gives the green light to a few more POTC movies. Outside of that, most of his recent movies have been flops.

I think he owns something like 14 multi-million dollar homes, and a shite ton of art.

I'd imagine he'd be fine if he just sold his assets and lived a "normal" famous person type of life. I think the issue is he can't seem to do that a bit moreso than he doesn't have enough to cover his debts.

I think 50 is the opposite of that. He’s screaming that he’s broke and hid the money.
It seems like it would be hard to hide as much money as he'd made. You never hear stories of lavish living with him like you hear with Floyd Mayweather or Johnny Depp. Maybe he's just made some historically bad investments.

I doubt seriously that most of these people are what I would consider "broke".

I think the bank probably owns them and he mortgaged them.

By all the reports you're wrong, but I guess neither of us can say definitely.

Even if he is completely insolvent and declares bankruptcy all he needs is one movie after that to make more money than most people make in their entire lives.

As a strong supporter of capitalism this is fricking laughably ignorant. Turn off the fox news and read a book every once in a while. Dickens and some exposure to humanity and culture would be a good start. Then try turning to actual economists and not just people who play one on TV.

It’s ludicrous that most of those people were ever rich in the first place.
