The most Shocking Poor Celebrity Net Worths

Gary Busey used to be a believable star. He played Buddy Holly, the first rock star, in the 1978 bio-pic The Buddy Holly Story. With all the tons of appearances he’s made since then, there’s no way he didn’t have money saved up. It seems like he was the hardest working man in show business, not even turning down roles where he played himself, essentially to make fun of himself. Unfortunately, all the work didn’t pay off. Recent estimates say that Busey had a personal worth of around $50,000, but with debts to the IRS, the UCLA Medical Facility, and Wells Fargo going up to $1 million.
