This is why credit counseling and money management should be taught in middle and high school. Every year.

First and foremost, I feel far more sympathy for people who have never experienced financial stability than those who’ve had it - and then some - and lost it all. However, for me the story of Gary Coleman is the most tragic. He got screwed by his own parents, endured a lifetime of bullying due to his small stature, and ended up working as a security guard at the backlot of the studio where his childhood stardom began. I felt genuine sadness when I learned of his untimely death. TLC comes a close second.

Amanda Bines a few weeks back was found a walking naked in the middle of the night in downtown la. When approached by fans the only thing she could say was “I’m just coming down from a psychotic break”. She did check herself in to a hospital. That girl has been so haunted by her mental health it’s hard to not feel bad for her.

With the case of burt reynolds make sure you have good people in your life when your at their lowest. you gotta give Kudos to his neighbor for helping him out when he was at his lowest.

Burt Reynold's neighbor bought Burt Reynold's estate and then let Burt live out the rest Burt's days with some dignity. That was so nice!

I felt bad for Gary Colemen. His parents just used him like an ATM machine.

We know Amanda Bynes was sexually abused by Dan Schneider. She even lived with him. I always wondered why my favorite actress ended up the way she did was because of him. She deserves better.

So Sinbad was "only" bringing in $16K/month. Yeah, how did he ever survive on that?! 🙄

Lessons to learn from all these:
* Finish High School
* Trust Financial Advisors to a point. They are there to advice, not manage your money. The final decision should be up to you.
* Learn to say NO.
* Know when to back out of a Legal fight. Sometimes it’s not meant to be.
* Your Health is important. Take care of yourself properly (for a long life & healthy bank account)
* Always read your contracts; even if it’s super long and boring. Know what you are getting into.

The ones that splurged on dumb shit and drugs, I have no sympathy for.

But the ones that were stolen from and taken advantage of and used, I really do feel horrible for them.

[wvrjl]

I feel really bad for Gary Coleman. He wasn't at all responsible for his loss, unlike most of the list (although TLC's issue was more inexperience). His parents should be beyond ashamed.

Drugs and bad spending seems to be the main force for celebs being broke

[therestingrancor]

Ah, we all hate Percy. The reason we all hate Percy, is that the actor portraying Percy was so good at bringing him to life on the screen. The Green Mile is one of my favourite movies of all time. It was sad to hear that the actor who played John Coffee died. It's sad too, to hear that this actor has fallen on hard times😔

[nukiesduke]

I'm actually shocked Heidi and spencer are still married. Damn. Reality shows like that were basically the beginning of the downfall of society tbh.

[davidmccarthy]

I’m so pleased to hear Gary Busey recognized for his work and finally hearing the compassion and empathy he deserves in the voices describing his recovery from a traumatic injury after a motorcycle accident instead of the usual snide comments

[personaldove]

All the three child actors from Different Strokes should get a documentary.
Each one was more tragic than the other especially Dana Plato.

[CCeeDaG.O.A.T]

I hope Amanda Bynes gets the help she needs. I grew up watching her on tv & in movies... still watch her movies to this day tbh

[chisaten]

At least Burt Reynolds had a nice neighbor who helped him live out the rest of his life in his mansion. ❤️

[lurkerrekrul]

Reynolds was somewhat a victim of "golden touch syndrome", where Hollywood producers thought that he had the golden touch and that just casting him in a movie would guarantee success. They didn't understand that the underlying movie has to be solid, or it doesn't matter how popular the star is. Which goes along with what I've said for years: Studio executives are incapable of judging quality. To them, every movie, no matter how badly written or made, is exactly the same quality to them, and they have absolutely no idea why one movie is a hit and another one bombs.
