I don't know if this is considered scammed but a few years ago I bought an SUV from a used car dealership where it ended up becoming a lemon. I had it for like 2 or 3 months then one day the transmission went out on it. Thank God it went out in my driveway and not on the highway. I honestly should have trusted my instincts that that used car dealership was shaddy. I should have filed a lemon lawsuit against the dealership. I guarantee it that they knew that that piece of junk was a lemon and I was just too gullible and stupid to realize it. In the end I sold it to a mechanic who replaced the transmission and he resold it to someone else. I didn't have the money to get it fixed. You live and you learn I guess.

It just goes to show being a famous Hollywood star does not protect you from being scammed. Kevin Bacon took the whole thing very well when he said it was a life lesson. Some people are completely unscrupulous. That was terrible that Robert De Niro was done over on his father's paintings. Good job he isn't the real Godfather!

When they say nearly broke does that mean down to their last few million or complete and utter ruin as in absolutely not a single dollar to their name. It would really suck to loose all that money, thankfully they have their talent to be able to continue to work and make more millions. The average joe would take the rest of their life to recoup that money if that.

When celebrities tell their stories, people believe, but when a regular person, does the same, you are labeled a whinner, a co-dependent. Someone who loves to play victim & the list goes on & on. And if bad thing happen to you, well tough luck, it's all your fault, because its just a reflection of how much of a bad person you are deep down. For some reason, in people's mind, bad people don't exist, predators either

Never use a personal finance manager, always use a team of stock brokers and other corporate managers. The more people the less chance of being framed / scammed.

And check every single one out in the FINRA Brokercheck. They are the regulatory body overseeing all who are licensed to sell financial instruments (someone who is selling an annuity will also be listed in your state's insurance commissioner's database). Every complaint and its resolution will be listed, as well as some personal financial things like a bankruptcy. If they had a license but it lapsed or was revoked, or they were barred, they will still be there. Looking up Bernie Madoff was fun when he went to prison.

Sorry. Scarlett only got $40M for 6 months of work? At $15/hour, which is more than the nat'l minimum wage, an American worker would only need to work 16,667 years to make $40M. Put another way, if 183 Americans made $15 an hour and worked 200 hours a year for 80 years each, collectively they would make what Ms Johansson made for 6 months. And that's why you can't afford to take your family to the movies.

Haha, yeah I bet Scarlett was “happy” to get this settled. She went to bed the night before hot as shit and rich and woke up the day hot as shit and rich as fuck. Seriously though good for her (and Jost), Disney knew exactly wha they were trying to pull with that move and they got called out. Very happy that they didn’t get away with it like most large corporations probably would have.
