10 Celebrities Who Squandered Their Financial Fortunes #Infographic

Published by Web Desk Friday, January 1, 2016

Celebrities—love them or hate them, they pervade our culture, and it seems you can’t go a day or two without hearing about their latest venture or mess up. While actors make millions of dollars on blockbuster movies, superstar athletes pull in jaw-dropping salaries for their ball handling skills, and reality stars make fortunes for doing who knows what, there’s one thing many of these popular celebrities can’t seem to do—keep a secure hold on their money. From marquee boards to bankruptcy filings, celebrities don’t seem to have a handle on maintaining the fortunes they often amass seemingly overnight. Whether it’s an addiction to plastic surgery, a taste for fine foods, or poorly planned investments, some of the world’s most recognizable faces find themselves in financial trouble every year. From Nicolas Cage to Lindsay Lohan, DMX to Marvin Gaye, financial woes seem to quickly follow the biggest Hollywood players, no matter their fame or their talent. Just as we applaud their entertainment achievements, so too can we learn from their mistakes. Community Tax laid out some of the most noteworthy celebrity financial disasters, so peruse the infographic and find out if any famous faces you know made the cut.
