[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He's broke and needs the signing bonus. I hear it's 50K. Also, obviously, GROSS. He knows what he's going to be asked to do and he doesn't care.[/quote]

Net worth is 10 million [/quote]

I’m sure a long time ago he was making good money. It all depends on if he invested well and if he saved.

If he’s joining ICE for the signing fee, he has not managed his money well. Most actors of his caliber don’t. They are uneducated and easily taken advantage of. I’d be shocked if he hadn’t gotten caught up in some bad investment scheme years ago and never recovered.

I guess it wouldn’t surprise me if he has 10M.  He went to Princeton so presumably knows some finance folks.  If he put his Superman money into just a standard mutual fund that would probably net him 10M.  He doesn’t seem like he’s living a high life and spending it like a Johnny Depo did (who was basically giving to away and flushing it down the toilet). Google says he got paid 75K per episode for Lois and Clark —  if you invested 1 million in the s and p in 1995, it would be worth over 22 million today.  [/quote]

The show ran for four seasons which back in the 90s means it was a failure. You needed to go more than four seasons if you want syndication and that’s where the real money comes in. If that show is what he is for known, I’m sure after 30 years he has burned through that money. He probably also lived in a pricey area of California and he probably with the celebrity crowd when he was trying to get more work.

I’d be shocked if he actually had any money today. [/quote]

That also wouldn’t surprise me but I can see either way.  Google says 88 episodes so ithara 6.6 million — if he put just 10% of that away on a standard investment he’d have 10M now.  Looks like he’s periodically had some crappy work since then so seems like he’s could have lived on the rest of it and still have about 10M.  That’s the power of investing over 30 years of what was mostly a pretty incredible market.  Depending on what house he bought and when he sold it he could also have made several million just in real estate appreciation give the California real estate market over the past 30 years.

Anyway, my guess is that he’s financial comfortable but not movie star rich and that he’s doing this only because he wants attention and is kind of an a-hole.  [/quote]
