They say that fame and success are not two things that always go hand in hand with an immense fortune. There are plenty of cases.
Most of the time, celebrities manage to earn good sums of money, but bad decisions, doubtful investments or simply wastefulness, cause wealth to fade away.
Movie or music stars have gone through this difficult process of having to declare bankruptcy and poverty.
