Sinbad's broke...

I've never heard a thing he's done, but I've often heard his name being bandied about with 'Carrot Top' and associated hack bollocks. I'll give it a go though - schadenfrade is much better if you know the back-story!

Comedians are never really broke though. How can you be unable to make some cash if your main skill is the inate ability to talk shite that people like?

Ah, okay. He's broke from his own doing. He didn't pay tax on his income like every other schmo in this country as to do. I don't feel sorry for him. The government took almost half my measly Christmas bonus in taxes, and I can assure you it didn't have loads of zeroes on the check. lol! Well, it's just as Faceless says. He can rise up again, he just has to start doing loads of stand up gigs and yap in front of an audience. He'll get that paid off and then be on the road to a decent life.

Pretty much Pirty. It's like when Willy Nelson got busted for it and had to do an album to pay it back. I can't feel sorry for them, especially when the rest of us have to pay.
