    It’s not as rare as people keep acting…

    He was on a hit TV show 20 years ago, but it was his breakout so he probably got no residuals

    He wasn’t broke, he was a landlord that made like 12k/month off rent. But if his net worth was in the millions it was probably just like two LA houses that most likely still had mortgages. If you’re going off websites it’s probably reported wrong.

    Like it’s applicable to everyone because insurance shouldn’t be tied to employment now that wages aren’t capped due to WW2 anymore, but it’s not like he was the 1% either. You gotta be well over 10 million for that.

    Which should make us realize how bad wealth inequality has gotten. To the actual oligarchs Dawson and the rest of us are the same.
