How do B-and-C list celebrities stay rich?

Question

You hear of celebs like Denise Richards and Tara Reid who haven't worked in years, and yet, they have cash to pay for the mortgage on their multimillion dollar mansions, to shop, travel, go shopping, and eat at upscale restaurants. Where do they get money from? Are they headed for broke because they keep on spending cash and no income is coming in? And does Denise Richard's rich rocker boyfriend pay for her stuff and pays her bills?

Answer 1

Maybe they aren't rich, but are spending above their income to keep up appearances. Or it could be that their mansion, car etc were all bought in better days, and they can just keep on top of payments.
maybe they invest their money wisely.

Songwriters and some actors acn get repeat fees from having one of their songs replayed or tv things shown again.

There are still shows, plays and PAs which aren't well known, but still pay the bills.

So there are ways to keep earning even when you're not on the cover of every magazine!

Answer 2

They are both still working. DR was just in a new series. Got cancelled, but she and Tara are both still doing shows, you probably haven't seen them.
Alot of people do voice overs and invest well.

they play roles in movies that arent that big, also they probably made millions during their carrer and probably people give them stuff cause there celebritys so people that want to be like them buy it and the company makes their money back
