   Since he's "Hollywood" it's more likely that he's doing meth. :-D

   Exactly. Kevin Sorbo once said, "acting is an industry where at any given   
   time 95% of the actors are out of work." That is a very high percentage.   
      
   Much of the public believes that every entertainer is mega-rich, but that   
   just isn't so. There's not as much money paid out as most people think.   
      
   Plus most celebs blow their money on worthless things when they're in   
   the limelight, and save very little for when their fame starts to dwindle.   
      
   And it always does...   
      
   Henry Winkler once commented on actors selling autographed photos for   
   $20. at trade shows. He said he would never be critical because he knew   
   that one day it could be him doing the same thing.
