I thank the Lord God for my parents. My dad retired from the military and then the post office. We were middle class and my dad focused on God and providing for the family, my mother managed the finances, and we never went hungry and always paid the bills on time. My parents remained with each other until death. I always appreciated the steadfastness of my parents, but seeing videos like this, makes me appreciate my parents all the more. They are resting in peace now.
If you are an actor working hard, often away from home or even out of the country making a film - and especially in the days before the internet made it easier to pay attention to your own money - you have to trust someone with your financial life.
@jacquelineedwards701 And their own parents. Jackie Coogan Law. Uncle Fester from the Adam's Family. His parents took every penny he made and he didn't even get a n allowance from it. He worked his entere childhood for nothing.
Yes sadly that’s true, I felt sorry for Judy Garland she had a really tough life. You think these actors have it all yet many turn to drink and drugs, and many pass at a very young age.
Did the Sammy Davis segment twice, the computer reader is annoying, words are mispronounced, the subtitles are mispelled, showed pictures of other people during segments; a pic of Bette Davis as Peg Entwhistle and Henry Fonda as Peter Lawford were especially annoying. This video gets a D at best.
Time to put that ENTIRE outfit onto the E.R.S. -- E., for External, return the federal government to a tariffs-first-based system of funding, abolish the personal income tax, adopt a consumption-based tax for all first-time purchases, and establish a "fair" tax system for businesses and industry. The caveat, here, is that these changes cannot be made and measured one at a time. They must be adopted as a single program of restoration of sober financial responsible government action on the federal level. If all these elements were to be placed in force simultaneously, I believe the federal government would reap so much in returns within the first three years of all these changes that our greatest concern would be how to most effectively spend it on all of the federal necessary expenditures without overspending since enough would remain after reasonable spending that significant debt pay-down in the 100s of billions could begin in the same first three years. The only force that could really threaten the success of this proposal is the human penchant for graft, greed, and the need to be THE hero in the common bureaucrat and politician. Absent such worthless ticks of society, America could and would truly become the shining city on a hill with streets painted in gold, if not paved in gold, at least. ..... . _____________________________________________________
All intelligence is artificial. Life is Nature's artifice. As your intelligence improves, so does your artifice. Consciousness is not binary. There's a smooth gradation. All consciousnesses has a right to existence. So there's a problem . . .
One thing you should have mentioned was that Lugosi was grossly underpaid for his acting. After the success of Dracula, the studio wanted him to play Frankenstein. Bela turned the role down after reading the script where his only lines were grunts, so the role went to Boris Karloff instead. The studio didn't like him turning down the roll and got even by under paying him from then on. I remember reading that in one movie where he starred with Karloff, he was paid $500.00 while Karloff got $5000.00 for his acting.
Why when talking about Black Actors or singers do you always show pictures of someone other than who the story is about? For example you are showing pictures of Halley Berry when you are talking about Dorothy Dandrige. Halley played Dorothy in her life story that does not make her Dorothy. The human factor is so absent these days. WHY?
Why?? Doesn't it always ALWAYS boil down to money? Profits of some kind or another...I too, an mourning the loss of the " human factor" in this world. Help us all..🥺🙏🏻
@itsmytruth2934 YOU MY FRIEND NEED GLASSES THERE WAS ONLY 1 PIC OF MRS BERRY/ LOTS OF DORTHY THERES ALWAYS SOMEONE CRYING ABOUT BLACKS BEING DONE WRONG GUESS WHAT ?? YOU WIN THE PRIZE...
Yeah I remember when $40 million was a fortune, unlike today when it’s become chump change 😂. Hey brother can you spare some change, might do me some good… Thanks and happy new year!
Geez, at least get it half right! I wish I was as broke as David Janssen when he died. He lived in Malibu with beachfront view and was building a house in Palm Springs. Please let me be that broke.
Just so so sad.. all these greats dyingvv c penniless.. Billy Holiday still no one can touch that voice.. merciless ppl in their lives stealing mismanagement oh and of course drugs.. no one to help them. .. rest in peace all you! God has you now! Amen.
Marie Prevost was found passed away in her apartment, and had been chewed upon by her Dachshund Maxie. Nick Lowe wrote a song about her. quoting, "She was a winner but she became her doggies dinner" That's pretty harsh.
These stories are very sad. But they serve as a lesson to all of us, especially those who are famous celebrities who come into a lot of money, that everyone needs to get seriously educated on how to manage their personal finances. After health and family, nothing is more important than making sure that your finances are properly managed,especially having them generate passive income so you’re making money while taking a nap or eating breakfast. Passive income is a marvelous thing!!
I think the entertainment industry is one of the most dangerous occupation in the world those mentioned are only a few of those who were addicted to ending in poverty….so sad
Depends on who you’re talking about. They sent Wesley Snipes to prison for income tax evasion. I don’t recall any white actors who received similar treatment.
No redundancy just killed this for me. We had to rely upon other people to manage. Our money in careers is not the individual fault themselves. They are trying to make the money and rely on others to grow it.
There is little in any of these stories that invokes true symphony for these tragic souls. Stories of excess and debauchary and addiction, all of it avoidable with a little bit of character and virtue.
When you edited this video did you not notice that you included Sammy Davis Jr. twice? First at 8:11 then again at 29:10 with two completely different narratives. The same thing with Bela Lugosi, at 14:51 and again at 44:34 in this video.
In the new covenant paying the tithe of the law of the jews brings you under law...Jesus made it clear his disciples are to renounce all and be good Stewart's of all.
How can the IRS tolerate someone to be in debt for 7 mio USD, and not act while he is still alive ? I mean, how many years did SD jr. not pay his taxes to have reached such an astronomical amount of debts ???
I only discovered Garfield when I became interested in film noir on YT. He was so handsome & an exceptional actor. The 1950s guilt by association blacklisting was cruel & ruined many lives & careers. Back then, media influencers like journalist Edward R. Murrow spoke out against anti-American government behavior instead of sanewashing it like they do nowadays. He'd be incredulous & incensed that an insurrectionist is the current president elect.
I googled Judy Garland’s net worth at the time of her death. She died when she was 47 years old and her net worth was….. Garland had 35 films to her name. She also released eight studio albums. Her many artistic contributions and merits of achievement put Judy Garland’s net worth at $20 million at the end of her life. This really is in stark contrast to the financial struggles she faced as she fought to thrive.
Watching this for an hour left me with one lingering question: are there any actors and actresses who tragically demonstrated that even glamorous and well-paid stars can suffer financial decline?
Even if I love Johnny Depp, in your segment about Ed Wood you only had 2 real photos of the director The rest were all stills from the movie ''Ed Wood'' with Johnny Depp in the lead role.
@MsAppassionata If you look up how she died it says car accident but she had a stroke while driving. Her daughter was with her. Car accident was not in quotation marks though.
I think MANY of the stars of yesteryear were shredded with emotional issues due to success syndrome. Rags to riches so to speak. And then there were the greedy managers that probably sponged away loads of their actors wealth. Fast money does tend to cause exorbitant spending. And attracts shyster managers that take advantage of their business inexperience. Sad.
The thread for most of these people seems to be bad choices, drugs and alcohol, and mental health issues in an industry that chows you up and spits you out. I'll bet, at the height of popularity, they all said, "That's not going to happen to me."
WELL, what can i say. SOME of them won't paid properly and MONEY don't last forever, it is meant to be spent and not having the same or similar careers through their lives, MONEY WILL EXPIRE. At the end of it all; ALL IS VANITY, VANITY OF VANITIES AND VEXTATION OF SPIRIT. Give Jehovah everything because with men, you are lost, however, i never understand people having hard times and yet they burden themselves with substance abuse, making their lives into BONDAGE INSTEAD OF RELIEF.🤷♂
odd to see how often a lot of these people have been married. I am 65, married once and only, can't understand people who have been married 6 or 7 times, what gives?
The House UnAmerican Activities and what it did, specifically to celebrities who didn’t toe the line of the then-current political climate, is one of the many shameful moments in our government’s history. The committee dragged in celebrities who had at one time, usually decades earlier, been members of the American Communist Party, which was not against the law when they did. It was only after WWII, a war in which the U.S. and the USSR were not perceived as enemies. But, after that, when Russia started gaining ground in armament/munitions production, came the big Red Scare. And the vast majority of those who were interrogated had long since ceased any affiliation with the Communist party. But then the screws were tightened and the committee expected the interrogated to “name names,” which meant for them to tell what other well-known celebrity (i.e., “Hollywood type”) had been active way back when. It didn’t matter to the committee that the people were no longer active; they wanted Names. Those with deep personal integrity, such as John Garfield, refused to do so. And his career, like many others you and I may never have even heard of because of how they and their talents faded into obscurity. It is unbelievable what was allowed to happen to so many people of great talent, many of whom worked hard for the U.S. during the war, either as members of the military, performing in pro-U.S. films, performing in USO shows to entertain the troops, or traveling around the country to sell war bonds. Dear Reader, if you are unfamiliar with this period of U.S. history, I encourage you to do some research. There are many documentaries on the subject. And don’t think this sort of disgraceful governmental behavior cannot happen again. At 75, I doubt I’ll live long enough to see my prophesy come to fruition; but, you who are still young, be aware. 🇺🇸
Jeez, the more I read about the maladies of these various entertainers it makes me glad that I don’t have any singing or acting talent. The one thing that I am good at, however, is managing my personal finances. I have an MBA and worked in Finance and Accounting for my career (now retired). By educating myself on investing and living below my means and investing the difference I have built up a multiple 7 figure net worth in my senior years. Properly managing their personal finances seems to be an unknown talent for many entertainers. There are exceptions, like the actor Fred MacMurray who died a very wealthy man through living modestly and conservatively managing and investing his earnings from his successful acting career.
All of the Motown acts were a lead singer and a backup group. Diana Ross and the Supremes. Smokey Robinson and the Miracles. Can anyone name a "Miracle"? I believe I've made my point.
I turned this on to see Actors from the Golden Age... Are you posing this as a test? Meat Loaf? Joe Louis? A twenty year old groupie of Andy Warhol??? What happened?? Your kids got into your equipment and and no one has told you yet??? This video is all fouled up!!!
They wouldn't be so broke if they wouldn't have lived so high on the hog just a normal life would have done okay. The money they make they shouldn't have bought all those expensive stuff that's why they lost their money.
Yes he was. He played her Japanese downstairs neighbor/landlord. It was really horrible; big buckteeth and glasses with Coke bottle lenses. Disgusting racism!

A heartbreaking reminder that fame and fortune are fleeting, but their contributions to cinema will always remain timeless.
These people were worth so much more than money?! May all their dear souls RIP. 💫
John Garfield was a great actor! RIP
John Garfield was accused by Mcarthy of communism. Apparently, all that questioning led him to suffering a fatal heart attack.
I always just loved Marie Dressler!! She was fabulous😢! Funny!! Just on point! Treasure!!
Be conservative always in spending, and trust no one with your money
If you are an actor working hard, often away from home or even out of the country making a film - and especially in the days before the internet made it easier to pay attention to your own money - you have to trust someone with your financial life.
And don't get health issues, It's America.
sadly, Rip Marvin
It's an absolute shame. A lot of these stars had been ripped off by their own so called friends and management.. . ❤❤❤❤
And family members. Don’t forget about them.
@jacquelineedwards701 And their own parents.
Jackie Coogan Law. Uncle Fester from the Adam's Family.
His parents took every penny he made and he didn't even get a n allowance from it.
He worked his entere childhood for nothing.

Hey brother can you spare some change, might do me some good…
Thanks and happy new year!
That’s heartbreaking about Marvin 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I was in Hollywood. He was an a-hole. Read his ex-wife's autobiography, After the Dance: My Life with Marvin Gaye. She confirms it.
Geez, at least get it half right! I wish I was as broke as David Janssen when he died. He lived in Malibu with beachfront view and was building a house in Palm Springs. Please let me be that broke.
He was also about to do a movie when he had his heart attack. He was still very popular.
@margaretpratt5963 he was one of my favorite actors.
Just so so sad.. all these greats dyingvv c penniless.. Billy Holiday still no one can touch that voice.. merciless ppl in their lives stealing mismanagement oh and of course drugs.. no one to help them. .. rest in peace all you! God has you now! Amen.
David Jannsen was worth $8 million when he died. His widow Dani is still alive.
Two pictures of Peg Entwistle are of a very young Betty Davis. Otherwise, great summaries.
Marvin Gaye was a so talented person. It was a poignant end.
All these people relied on alcoholism or drug addiction, Terrible.
Marie Prevost was found passed away in her apartment, and had been chewed upon by her Dachshund Maxie. Nick Lowe wrote a song about her. quoting, "She was a winner but she became her doggies dinner" That's pretty harsh.
I imagine the pup was desperately hungry to do such a thing. Very sad, all the way around.
When a lot of money is at stake, you must be on guard always
You showed a photo of Henry Fonda as you described Peter lawford’s aging.

Really they plus ex,s divorces. just got old and didn’t get the jobs nor high salaries!
No! Peter Lawford had investments in many of Joe Kennedy’s businesses. And was doing well financially!
No he wasn't

Judy Garland was done so wrong.
Bela Lugosi was a foolish man and didn't fight for better pay.

He had a small role..
Yes he was. He played her Japanese downstairs neighbor/landlord. It was really horrible; big buckteeth and glasses with Coke bottle lenses. Disgusting racism!

Mickey Rooney was in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. He played the Asian neighbor that complained about holly Golightly’s loud parties.
