Pamela Anderson: Drowning In Debt!

I stumbled on a news item today that I think illustrates what I was talking about yesterday, when I blogged that money can be a debt magnifier.

From Star Magazine:

“Pamela Anderson used to be the Baywatch babe with the million-dollar body! Now, she owes more than $1.2 million to creditors, including construction companies she stiffed after they remodeled her five-bedroom Malibu Colony home last year! “

The article goes on to talk about how Anderson owes $674,043 to the contractor, as well as $252,360 to California’s Franchise Tax Board in unpaid income tax from 2007. She might even lose her multi-million dollar home.

This just shows that having a lot of money, doesn’t solve your money problems if you don’t know how to manage it in the first place. In this case, being rich and famous was just a fast track to mega debt when Anderson’s poor decisions were amplified by her wealth.

Let this be a reminder that we should get our habits under control before we throw more money into the mix.

    I’m sure she can figure something out. They make it quick spend it quick and make it back just as quick as long as they are able to reinvent and stay with the times.
