An unfortunate incident happened to a famous guy called Al Pacino and I learned a lot from it.
The biggest lesson I learned was that no matter how high you rise in life, you can still fall flat to the ground. Al Pacino who was $50 million rich has now ended up broke.
That means you can get that rich and end up very poor
But I'm honestly not shocked by this story though. Being famous can make people feel like they're untouchable and nothing can happen to them. Famous people feel as if money problems don't apply to them.
So how did it happen, well he got tricked basically scammed by a person he trusted to handle all his financial details and decisions.
He found out that the person was taking advantage of him. That's why you should never ever trust anyone but yourself with your money.
Pacino's mistakes are very relatable indeed.
Ignoring finances and giving the duty to someone else because they seem complicated? I understand that, and that's why I wanted to do in the future but after hearing this story, I change my mind. It's easier to focus on your work and not the money coming in, especially when you're making a lot of money. But to be so hands-off that you don't notice spending $400, 000 a year on landscaping for a house you don't even live in, that's just blatant laziness? It's a a whole new level of financial negligence.
I'm always wondering how it will feel to be broke when you're already a famous person like Pacino? If it were to be me, I may not be able to show my face in public again until I work my way up again. I believe that even though he lost his wealth, he could still work his way back up.
I think it's the sudden loss of wealth that hurts. Just imagine having everything in the world and then it's all gone. I pray for strength for the man, he definitely needs.
Sorry to hear this, I wonder how old Al Pacino is now, and if that effects this situation?
it's not easy to rise up when they fall like that. But while he was rising if he made good powerful friends they can definitely help me come back up
Thats good for you.
it can cost people their lives
Ok
