Why Hasn't Nicolas Cage Got Any Money?

I really don’t understand Nicolas Cage’s financial situation. I’m not an accountant, but I would imagine that he would have to have tried pretty hard to end up broke, given the amount of films he’s made. I mean, even if he’d got just one dollar for every piece of shit he ever made he should still be a multi-millionaire. If I was famous I would just hoard about ten million and stop working altogether. You could have a comfortable life living off the interest in some beach house somewhere, and keep yourself to yourself. There must be something deeply hollow for some people about being famous and getting a lot of money, because they go off the rails. It really pisses me off the number of times – and this is my own fault – I have paid hard-earned cash to watch that jug-eared nose on legs in a crappy movie, especially now that I discover that he took that money and pissed it up the wall. I personally must have given him a couple of hundred dollars over the years, and now he doesn’t even know where his next underwear is coming from. So, I guess he’ll have to change his name to Knickerless Cage.
