well, its not like he'll be on the streets tomorrow. Most hollywood stars are actually very smart when it comes to handling money. They diversified their wealth distribution and hence hedge against unforseen money trouble. He'll just fine.

Same thing happened to my parents business. Much less though.....only $750,000 (embezelment) Their trusted bookkeeper of 12 years got only 6 months in jail proving once again its o.k to steal if you don't mind 3 squares a day and a 6 month paid vacation. $750,000 for 6 months of inconvience what a deal. My parents life savings wiped out just like that. Its ok though, their only 67 years old with high blood pressure and heart disease....they'll be alright. As for Nic, I feel for the guy and I think he's an excellent actor. Don't be jealous people, just because he has made it and you haven't. A couple of movies and Nic will be broke no more. Probably come out of this stronger then ever but less trusting. Bottom line........ DON'T TRUST ANYONE and watch your checks and balances.

Mr. Cage is an awesome actor. (period.) He will make a huge comeback and will be able to retire way before anyone on this page. I agree with "RealDeal", in that he simply trusted the wrong people and that he would be better served to diversify. God bless you Nicolas...I loved you in Angels.

Nick- being broke doesn't make me, you, or anyone else have more money- so why be bitter? Until you have a lot of money it is difficult to speculate how you would manage it. Sitting here with little we can critize Nick for spending too much- but who knows if we wouldn't have done the same given the same opportunity and circumstances? If he is guilty of anything it is being too trusting of his manager.

Anyone with wealth needs to keep an eye on their money. I trusted a well known firm to manage my inheritance until I noticed their fees and charges were making more money for them than for me.
I fired those scoundrels and moved my inheritance to a wealth management firm where my financial representative understands that he will not buy, sell, redeem, exchange, or transfer any assets without my consent. Things have been going smoothly for twelve years and I know where my money is and what it's being used for.
