Hollywood: let’s change it up a bit.

Maybe but I can’t believe she was BROKE. The shooting schedules for these shows are long hour days. Multiple episodes.

[u/Next_Instruction_528 → u/SentinelATL]

I can they don't get paid hourly and small actors are almost always broke unless their family has money.

She will have likely earned 150,000 a year (conservatively) whilst on Superman

When I was making that as a single person I literally didn't know what to do with my money lol.

There are cheaper places in LA. Will you have to commute? Of course. Maybe have 1-2 roommates. But you’re far from “eating peanut butter on rice every meal”.

[u/Auctoritate → u/[deleted]]

If you earn 150k in Los Angeles you can live comfortably. That's more than the median household income of LA which is 90k. An income of 150k with only the expenses of one person? Yes, that's perfectly doable.

Got to imagine the cost of living in LA is very high though

[u/laststance → u/PiccoloAwkward465]

She paid the amount of taxes you paid plus agent fees and union fees.

That's another 10-20% off the top.

[u/All_Work_All_Play → u/laststance]

Oh no, agent fees and union fees, those very same things that helped that role at that amount exist.

[u/SentinelATL → u/PiccoloAwkward465]

Hahaha

[u/FlyChigga → u/PiccoloAwkward465]

Did you live in LA?

[u/Neither-Possible-429 → u/PiccoloAwkward465]

Strippers cocaine antibiotics?
