So, if someone steals, oh, I don't know, $5000 or $10,000 from you. How would you feel if everyone around you just said "sell one of your cars to cover the loss. go ahead. If you just sold a car or a sofa you'd be whole again" That's not the point. It's his money and he shouldn't have to sell anything to get his money back

True, but there is no telling when or if he may recover money that may have been stolen depending on the courts. Principles don't pay debts. When you need money in the present and you have stuff, it's a no-brainer, sell stuff. Apparently his horse farm is still for sale after it failed to sell at auction last year, but he supposedly owns 14 luxury homes across the globe, 40 cars, boats, a massive guitar collection and storage units full of stuff. He also spends a chunk of money supporting his family. He may not want to or should not have to get rid of stuff, but multi-million dollar earning celebs aren't immune to doing what they have to in order to pay some bills.

Did you skip the part where some of his family (mainly a sister) may be part of the problem?

This guy had tons of resources. He could have hired a firm to audit and oversee his managers. But he didn't do that. Instead he surrounded himself with "yes men", people who told him what he wanted to hear and he blew through his fortune. Did his managers also overcompensate themselves? Probably.

And he continues to spend money that he doesn't have. There are no way to make the numbers work on his accounts, the dude is in financial trouble. And honestly I really don't care because he had to work pretty hard to blow through that enormous fortune of his. If he's broke, he's broke. Is what it is.

I know, what I'm saying is that one of his sisters appears to be part of the problem insofar as overcompensating herself.

Why did he give his sister access to his money and if he was too clueless to understand that he was burning through his money like an out of control forest fire why would she be any less clueless than he was?

Firstly, everything I'm writing here I learned from actually reading the article so maybe that would help... that said, it says that sister Christi was his day-to-day manager from the beginning who more recently received $7mil from TMG that Depp didn't know about or authorize, and another sister and her family seem to have moved into his mom's house and was spending money he also didn't know about.

While I agree that he should have a better grasp of his affairs, I'm just saying if he trusted manager sister Christi that may be part of the problem as it looks like she was skimming or in cahoots with TMG.

Then he has been careless with his money and so have his family members. But even her skimming 7 million of his 650 million doesn't explain where the other 643 million went.

Real estate (multiple homes plus Brando-esque private island), car services and private air travel, $30,000 a month for booze, $Xmil for shooting Hunter Thompson's ashes from a cannon, etc., plus the managers and family members skimming. I agree that it's ultimately his fault for being so careless but it's not a mystery at all where it all went if you read the article.

Exactly. Where did all the money go? Answer: He spent it! Now he has lots of stuff but is running out of money to afford it all. Poor baby.

Am I supposed to feel bad for an aging A Lister? The guy has lived a dream life for the last 30 freaking years. If he God forbid had a heart attack tomorrow, nobody would say his life sucked.

The least he could do is hire a personal trainer. The aging bloated (alcoholic?) face is a bad look.

His daughter sounds like a brat. She's a rich model in her own right and she calls him crying to not sell a villa nobody lives in anymore? Jesus.

Now he looks like a dying skeleton since over that 30 years he has sucked down a ton of alcohol and more drugs than Merck.

In a world with ever rising income inequality , the story of a man who made $650 million within a 35 yr career span and who has blown it away will have a hard time garnering sympathy from the masses .

Johnny Depp is what happens when people fail to realize the unbelievable privilege, luck and opportunity life has put at their door step and instead morph into real life villains . There are scores of other professions out there that are vital and critical to our modern society but whose practitioners will never ever earn 1% of what this man earned to play make-believe in front of the camera .

I’m sorry but but I’m not sorry for this man

Perhaps he'd like to join the middle class and look for a sales position with some department store or car dealership.

So, do all the assholes who piled on Amber Heard and accused her of lying about the domestic abuse repent now?

[Anonymous]

There is no excuse for this. I read an interview with Kid Rock where he said that his grandchildren's grandkids would be set for life. That's what extremely rich people do. Depp is just trying to pass the buck.

I wasn't one who piled on but she still seems like a gold digger who found an easy mark.

His son has been suffering from a serious disease for quite a while now and he had to cancel part of his tour. Maybe that’s why he looks so sickly.
