Celebrities Who Went From Riches To Rags

Nick Cage

Nicolas Cage was one of Tinsel Town's biggest stars until recently. Once his career slowed down in 2011, Cage realized that he wouldn't be able to continue to pay for the homes, automobiles, expensive art, and weird artifacts that he had bought over his lifetime. Cage had to pay $6 million in back taxes from 2007, but after losing it all, he was able to get back some of it and fix himself financially by 2016.
