Actors make less than you think.

Most actors can't make any kind of living.

Most actors on most days don't think they're worthy.

But actors at a certain point take the best of what's available to them.

Film actors reach a certain level, but they don't get beyond it unless they work in the theater.

People think actors have such glamorous lives, but the truth is actors go where nobody wants to go.

Most actors are not rich - they are very poor indeed. What keeps them going is that they just love the job.

It's really important for actors to feel that they're more than something for hire.

You know, when you choose to make your living as an actor, it's all fine and good to look at it as some kind of artistic endeavor. At its best, it is that. But the fact is, most of the actors out there don't earn $3 million a picture and can't afford to take two years off between films and look for the right thing. Most of us are tradesmen.
